Sunday, September 8: NYT Connections Answers and Solutions for Today’s Puzzle Enthusiasts

Hey there, puzzle fans! It’s your weekly dose of wordplay time! I’m stoked that the NFL season is kicking off, but I know not everyone’s a huge football fan. Maybe you’re more excited about the new Minecraft movie trailer dropping today (I won’t judge if you’re into that sorta thing) or maybe you’re just happy to have a relaxed Sunday with no sports dramas. Whatever your vibe is, just remember to be cool about it, ya know?

Now, on to the good stuff! The daily 16 words are back, and this time, we’ve got a Connections brainbuster from The New York Times for you to tackle. There are four groups of words with a shared theme or commonality, but don’t worry, they’re all mixed up for you to figure out. Take your time, think outside the box, and don’t be afraid to get creative – some words might have multiple meanings, so pay attention!

Today’s words are: FROST, BEACH, PUMP, POPE, RACE, BISHOP, PET SHOP, POUND, HARDY, BEAT, PRIOR, BAKE, THROB, BAD, PREHEAT, and PASTOR.

Give it a shot, and see how many words you can group together. Good luck, and may the wordplay be with you!
