Wisconsin dude skate fast

I'm old enough to remember when the American soccer blogosphere vigorously debated whether it was good that MLS launched an editorial arm on its website. Here we are 15 years later it's extremely sad to see it nuked.

Man who moved abroad to avoid hundreds of millions of pounds of tax and whose business have benefited from hundreds of millions of pounds of public funds believes that, 'Britain has been "colonised" by immigrants, who are draining resources from the state.'

Morning Kickaround is live right now talking American soccer. MLS club valuations, World Cup updates, Tottenham targeting Pochettino, AC Boise supporters group, and more. Get in. www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_FQ...

From my Rep:

Okay let's go @senlouiselucas.bluesky.bot wtop.com/virginia/202...

I mean. The mainland population of Puertos Ricans is enough to make up the difference.

Who’s ready for season 5? This is going to be our best year yet. Get your tickets now and also help support the Immigrant Law Center courtesy of @pentzhomes.bsky.social.

"OMG did you see that Man U lost, TheUnitedStrand still will not cut his hai-" You bolt awake. It is 1845. You are wielding "Laws of the Game". You are a University of Cambridge student, & you have changed your mind. Association football cannot come to pass. The document in your hand must burn.

soccer's punxsutawney phil (west ham united) has spoken: six more weeks of hearing about that idiot's hair

Putting two attackers on down a goal away and getting a point against West Ham? Clearly Michael Carrick is a genius.

I'm that person that will read and repost every single piece on the impact of Benito's halftime show and what it means for a better America so if you want to pump your numbers, let's go

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE: "I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Look man I know some of those 19th century guys really sucked, Wilson was a giant racist, and GWB was not the brightest bulb, but he's the dumbest man to ever hold the office.

I'm angry at all of you* for making aware of some dude's dumb hair stunt. *soccer people

We're inviting everyone over for the biggest party in the world and a pack of unchained attack dogs will be wandering around out front.

Can't believe the Premier League is just playing through the Olympics like this. Mickey Mouse league.

At a public meeting Monday night, Hudson River Park Trust leaders dodged, deflected, and even laughed off questions about its ongoing contract with ICE that allows federal agents to park their vans at Pier 40, a popular public venue where dozens of local teams play soccer.

NO THANKS ON THE BIATHLON SNOT

Age verification? I made my mom take to K-Mart to buy the cassette of the hottest song in the country..."Jump" by Kris Kross.

Guess I'm going to RT this every fucking day till the end of time

Post a banger that's not in English. We stay Puerto Rico. Sorry for not being a little less obvious, but if you've never heard Marc Anthony sing "Preciosa", a love song to the island, you're welcome. www.youtube.com/watch?v=o74m...

Great Monday show & guest today. Replay recommended 👍🏼

Thought about this a lot last night. Even without *everything else* (which was mucho), just the camera movement design was breathtakingly original.

SLANGING EM

NO ME JODAS ANDREW LOS HUESOS NO MIENTEN

Saw this and immediately followed @jmelendezbadillo.bsky.social.

Gonna ride this wave and force all my gringo friends to learn how to play domino. My table doesn't get enough use.

Bad Bunny’s performance began in the plantation, featured broken electric poles, and ended by centering a hemispheric understanding of “América”—among many other things—and some Anglo journalists are like “his performance wasn’t political.” This is why we need to be telling our stories.

My gawd. Cabrón, la historia de Puerto Rico es un reflejo de la poltica de los Estados Unidos. He literally showed you how Puerto Ricans and immigrants, people you're shitting in this exact moment, have enriched the culture.

Come do American soccer with me on @mkickaround.bsky.social. I'll try to keep the Puerto Rico content levels low. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxFy...

I've heard that the study that claimed to show multilingual people live longer wasn't good science, but learning a second language, even if it doesn't add years to my life, is the most personally rewarding thing I've ever done. Recommend.

Bad Bunny has a consulting historian. news.wisc.edu/pop-star-bad...

I've been reminded by the most important boricua in my life about a few things in Puerto Rico's history as a US colonial possession you might not know. Thread incoming, but since I'm not a historian, please find some and learn about these things.

Because I think it's important to remind ourselves that very little of this is simple or clean, I'd like to point out that there are plenty of MAGA boricuas, both on the mainland and on the island. I have no idea what they're thinking today, but we shouldn't forget they exist.

Wait did Bad Bunny just capture America's heart by running the damn ball?

No one had more fun at the Super Bowl than Pedro Pascal.

CABRÓN FIX THE POWER GRID IN PUERTO RICO

And with Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show, Puerto Rican Christmas is officially, finally, over.

It's very funny that Trump told on himself by bitching about Benito when they made a whole halftime show just for his base that he obviously didn't watch.

If you didn’t catch the significance of the exploding transformers in Bad Bunny’s halftime show, I gotcha. Here’s one of a bunch of pieces I wrote from/on Puerto Rico about the crisis—and Trump’s role in it. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Feeling pity for the Patriots. Which I hate. GDI.

Bad Bunny was always going to be the best part of this game but god damn guys, at least try to make it a question.

This Benito Bowl is fucking on fire.

LUMA gettin hit. Go on Benito.

Jumping, spinning four times and then landing without busting your face open on the ice seems a little tougher than hitting a round ball with a round bat so I vote we change the "hardest thing in sports".

Ilia Malinin is definitely the spiciest thing to every come out of Vienna, Virginia.

Anyone got a gift link for this one?

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.
