Nobody needs to buy them. Heck… nobody needs to waste a second of their life watching it on TV either. #franchiseball

MLS announces sold-out crowds across the board based on “tickets distributed.”

Reminds me of the time I flew out of Leicester and saw merchandise commemorating Mercantile Credit Classic semi-finalist Willie Thorne…

Brutal… 😂 😂 😂

Just because I haven’t watched fitba in a decade doesn’t mean I’m not sneaking a look at the BBC website to see how the “greatest coach in MLS history” got on at Tannadice tonight. 😂 😂 😂

“Hitesh flew nearly 1,900 kilometres from the south Indian city of Bengaluru.” By contrast, I wouldn’t cross the living room if this tax-dodging, image-laundering tool pitched up at my front door carrying my pizza delivery. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Freudian slip from the Guardian’s World Cup draw reporter…

“But then you add Kurt Angle to the mix…” #steinermath

For @robhatch.bsky.social and @brismithy.bsky.social, don’t forget Anna van der Breggen winning Flèche Wallonne seven consecutive times from 2015 through 2021.

Incredible footage from the bike of stage winner Jasper Philipsen’s final lead-out man. #LaVuelta25

Phil Liggett throwing in an @accidentalp.bsky.social quote during today’s #TDF2025 stage.

“Adri” might have gone home, but the struggle continues over on NBC’s #TDF2025 coverage…

Top notch stuff! #fatherben 😃

First day of God-awful #TDF2025 coverage on NBC is done… made even worse by their continuing rehabilitation attempts for the sport’s biggest ever fraud. Bring back the Euro feed. 🙏

Enjoyed the advanced screening of @simplemindsmusic.bsky.social “Everything Is Possible” film in NYC last night. Looks like a huge nod due to @graemethomson.bsky.social for kickstarting this nostalgic journey with his “Theme For Great Cities” book.

A Giro filled with amazing moments. I’m glad @robhatch.bsky.social and @robbiemcewen.bsky.social were on hand for the best one. #Giroditalia #strokingthefox 🦊

Going to be some party in Aberdeen tonight. Not quite as raucous as Dundee last week for United finishing fourth… but some party all the same. 🥳

“Known for its nature, culture, and Robert Raku Ponnick.” #casteldisangro #giroditalia

Poor Hearts. At least they’ve got the “We’ll Finish Above Aberdeen” trophy to parade around Tynie before their next Bottom Six dead rubber. 😂

Couldn’t watch the Tour of Flanders live? Don’t fear. The folks at @flobikes.bsky.social will give you back 6 hours of your Sunday by revealing the result while you’re clicking around for the replay!

Time to go…

“You know, Elon… pimping your shitty-ass cars is like making love to a beautiful woman…” @thefastshow.bsky.social

Hopefully the world boycotts this farce. Leave the US to battle it out with Russia, Belarus, North Korea, Hungary, Iran and whichever MLS department Lionel Messi is prostituting himself for.

I’m sure millions of football fans the world over will show their displeasure next summer by shunning the latest World Cup debacle… like they did for Russia, Qatar…

Wasn’t it time 10 years ago? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Cheeky trip to Atlanta for some Belarussian post-punk synth pop. @shoegazerhonda.bsky.social

Not many books get a 5-star rating from me. This one by Russell Shorto does. And what a way to go out with a quote from a Holocaust survivor: “Life is absurd. It has no meaning. But it has beauty, and wonder, and we have to enjoy that.”

First vinyl spin of the New Year. Picked up at the recent @themountaingoats.bsky.social gig in Savannah. Sleeve notes > streaming.

Cheeky Wednesday night out at Victory North in Savannah for @themountaingoats.bsky.social. Top notch stuff. #concert #livemusic

First experience of the American #pummelo turned into a massive disappointment. Far too much pith. Floridians don’t have nothing on the Vietnamese #pomelo.

Reading up on a part of the world that I should probably know a lot more about (courtesy of a fellow @uniofaberdeen.bsky.social grad). #paulmurton #thehebrides #reading #books

- Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Of Montreal - Yard Act - Xiu Xiu - PJ Harvey #music #livemusic #concerts

First gig of the Bluesky era. Godspeed You! Black Emperor at Charleston’s Music Farm. Can’t tag the band. Can’t tag the venue. #music #livemusic #concert #concertphoto

Practically impossible to walk past Greedy Reads in Fell’s without dropping a minimum of $30. Becomes expensive when your house is three blocks away! Atomic Books must have the most eclectic selection I’ve seen. #baltimore #bookstores
