WBIE has
filed trademark applications for "WB Play," which sounds like it may be a
digital distribution service of some sort, with
The Escapist noting this seems to be a long-term plan, as they've owned the
wbplay.com domain since last year, though

Definitely excited that the football season is here. And the weather even seems
to be cooperating, as it's been hot and humid ever since my recent comment about
how pleasant the summer has been (I try to shed my superstition about talking
about things "jinxing" them, but events seem to conspire against me), but a cold
front rolled in yesterday, bringing rain and relief, so things are now slightly
more autumnal around here.
