DONALD FAGEN TOLD THE DIRECTOR 'GO F*** YOURSELF' — IS STEELY DAN REALLY YACHT ROCK?

When the director of the 2024 'Yacht Rock' documentary called Donald Fagen to ask if Steely Dan was yacht rock, Fagen's response was short and brutal: 'Go f*** yourself.' That's how deep this debate goes. But here's the thing — Walter Becker thought the whole label was hilarious. So which one was right? The term 'yacht rock' didn't even exist when Steely Dan dropped seven albums in the '70s and '80s. It was invented in 2005 by some guys making a YouTube mockumentary. Suddenly, a whole genre was retroactively built around Christopher Cross, Kenny Loggins, Michael McDonald... and Steely Dan got dragged into the mix. But critics argue Steely Dan's lyrics and arrangements are way too sophisticated to share a playlist with 'Sailing.' Even some hardcore fans admit the band has 'yacht songs' but isn't a 'yacht band.' What nobody can agree on is where the line actually gets drawn — and what Fagen really thinks about the whole thing now.

SOCCER'S MIDFIELD IS VANISHING – AND IT'S CHANGING EVERYTHING YOU KNOW ABOUT THE GAME

Elite soccer in 2026 looks nothing like it did five years ago. Midfielders are becoming generalists who cover ground instead of specialists, strikers are getting bigger and more physical, and goalkeepers are now playmakers. Why? Because man-to-man pressing has made the middle third a no-man's land. Teams are bypassing midfield entirely, launching direct attacks and relying on set pieces. The result? A completely different sport. But what nobody's talking about is the one position that's quietly becoming the most important on the pitch – and it's not who you think.
This breakdown of 2026 soccer tactics is wild – the midfield is literally disappearing. Full video's here if you're curious: https://geni.us/ABCNews-Live

COLORADO STATE FIRED THEIR DEFENSIVE COORDINATOR MID-GAME – THE REASON WHY WILL BLOW YOUR MIND

You won't believe what happened during Colorado State's game against Oregon State. Down 14-0 in the first quarter, head coach Jim Mora made a stunning decision: he fired defensive coordinator Tyson Summers right then and there. It's almost unheard of in college football. The Rams' defense had been struggling all season, giving up over 34 points and 454 yards per game. But firing a coach mid-game? That's a new level of frustration. Mora had seen enough after a 59-45 loss to UTSA where cameras caught him angrily confronting Summers on the sideline. So when Oregon State scored early, Mora pulled the trigger. But what happened next left everyone speechless – the Beavers went on to rack up 652 total yards and 56 points. The fallout and what Mora said after the game will shock you.

The UK construction industry is a fifth less productive than it was 50 years ago – worse than the strike-ridden 1970s. Mark Reynolds, boss of Mace Construct (the firm behind The Shard and London Eye), reveals why humanoid robots can't replace bricklayers yet, and how a simple canteen move saved millions.

HE WROTE A #1 HIT IN ONE DAY – BUT THOUGHT IT WAS 'SUPER-EGOTISTICAL'

Mac Davis was already a legend, penning classics for Elvis like 'In the Ghetto.' But when his producer demanded a surefire hit, Davis whipped up 'Baby Don't Get Hooked On Me' in a single day. He thought the song was pretentious and almost scrapped it. Columbia released it anyway – and it shot to #1, staying there for three weeks. What happened next turned Davis into a TV star. But the story behind the song's creation is even wilder…

HE WAS BOOED OFF THE FIELD LAST MONTH – NOW HE'S CLEVELAND'S SAVIOR, AND HIS BACKUP CAN'T WATCH

Deshaun Watson was written off. Booed in preseason, buried by injuries, and stuck with the most controversial contract in NFL history. Then Thursday night happened. Watson carved up the Steelers for 268 yards and marched the Browns 50 yards in the final minutes to set up a 56-yard game-winner. But the camera found someone else – backup Shedeur Sanders, biting his nails, chewing his mouthguard, looking like a man who just lost the job for good. The internet exploded. "That man is absolutely MISERABLE," one fan wrote. And the truth is, he might be right. Because with every Watson touchdown, Sanders' window in Cleveland slams shut a little harder. But what nobody's talking about is the moment after the final whistle – and what Watson said about the fans who once wanted him gone.

LEBRON JAMES JUST SHOWED UP AT 76ERS PRACTICE — AND THE NBA WORLD CAN'T HANDLE IT

You see LeBron James in a 76ers practice jersey? Yeah, neither did we. A clip just surfaced from Camden, New Jersey, and it's got the entire NBA world saying it 'doesn't feel like real life.' Jaylen Brown's there too. No, this isn't a 2K glitch or some AI fever dream — it's actually happening. The reactions are wild, the speculation is wilder, and nobody knows what to make of it. But what nobody knew was why this clip leaked now… and what it means for the rest of the league.

49ERS OWNER BUSTED IN PROSTITUTION STING – BUT HIS PUNISHMENT IS TURNING HEADS

Jed York just got hit with a six-game suspension and a $500,000 fine after an Ohio prostitution sting. Cops say he responded to an online ad that was actually set up by a human trafficking task force. He pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges, got a day in jail, and now the NFL is dropping the hammer. But here’s the twist: York’s already been credited with serving three games because he hasn’t been around the team. So he could be back by October 20. In a statement, he said he’s “deeply sorry” and takes “full responsibility.” But what nobody knew was… the details of that sting are wilder than you think.
