COMPANION — NIGHTLY
I know it’s not the OA, but when I found NIGHTLY, I worked backwards, and it can also fit the TI.
Aaaaw …. 👶🏻
Hey, Sir BILL DUFFIN,
I’m glad you found an alternate solution. It is nice and unique and fits the TI too. Very good job! 👍🤓

OA.
OA
OA in reasonable time.
Overblown looked promising but had to stare at the remaining letters for a bit…
Yep, me too …
and in my case with only about 20 minutes left before the new torture, er, edifying challenge!
MACHO-OVERBLOWN too. Who remembers the Bobby Riggs vs. Billie Jean King match?
I do. She kicked his butt. 😉
My fav player though was Martina. ☕
Yep … but kind of hard to tell if he might’ve done that deliberately just to increase his take – he was a hustler and wanted to play BJK first, but she wouldn’t do it. After Riggs destroyed the ranked #1 lady (Smith) in May, then he and BJK came to an agreement for their September match. He was 55 and BJK was 29.
Apparently, per wikipedia, BJK really liked Riggs and kept in contact with him until the day before he died.

“the ranked #1 lady (Smith-Court)” or should it be
“(Court-Smith)”?
I think her maiden name was Smith.
👍
OA very quickly.
OA Well done TI
OA
Struggled finding anything to connect with the N while avoiding the O since so few words end in it, but that turned out being the solve.
OA. Neat TI, definitionally.
I note Havoc making a second appearance in two days. Is the Universe picking up our distress signals?
Yes. By definition. Can’t recall another OA that was so locked in.
OA for me. Under 15 minutes. Probably would’ve been faster if I wasn’t driving.
😱
OA. I assumed that either COVER or OVER would factor in to the solve. From there it came to me quickly.
MACHO-OVERBLOWN
For another quick solve.
MACHO / OVERBLOWN Maybe fastest solve yet. Less than a minute.
OA great TI!
1 – 14 macho / overblown
This is the only solution today. No Scrabble words.
OA
Seems this was the only option. I prefer when we have variety
yep 👍
😎
OA here too pretty quickly
OA, but it took awhile before I saw OVER as a possibility. MACHO felt familiar, but I didn’t see another solution using the site’s search function. 🤷♂️
OA. I found a number of “over” words but it took me longer to visualize MACHO.
