Michigan vs Texas: Bowl Game Shorthanded
Michigan and Texas face off in the Citrus Bowl, both with nine wins and three losses, but both teams are shorthanded due to absences and opt-outs. Michigans interim coach Biff Poggi worries about up to twenty-five Wolverines potentially skipping the game. Texas deals with its own absences, including All-American safety Michael Taaffe and linebacker Anthony Hill Junior, who are preparing for the NFL draft. The top three running backs from preseason are entering the transfer portal, and seven of the ten most-used defensive players have opted out. Coach Steve Sarkisian says practices feel like NFL sessions with just sixty-five scholarship players available, down from the limit of eighty-five. Players and coaches see these non-playoff bowls as less crucial now, as teams aim higher for the expanded twelve-team College Football Playoff. Checkout Solipillow.com

Retail Apocalypse: 2025 Store Closures
2025 Retail Crisis: Major Store Closures and Job LossesAs 2025 draws to a close, the retail industry faces a significant downturn with numerous store closures across various sectors. Major chains like Kohls, Macys, Rite Aid, Joann, and others have announced massive store closures due to rising costs, bankruptcies, tariffs, and the shift towards online shopping. These closures have resulted in thousands of job losses and empty storefronts, impacting communities and forcing shoppers to adapt to fewer options and rely more on apps and delivery. Bankruptcies have also piled up, with At Home, Claires, and Torrid closing numerous stores. Starbucks plans to phase out its pick-up only format and shut down hundreds more stores in the U.S., Canada, and Europe by next year. Tariffs have also played a role, leading to store closures and workforce reductions. Looking ahead, more pain is expected in 2026, with chains like Orvis, REI, Kroger, Foot Locker, and Outback planning further downsizing. Checkout Solipillow.com
