World Cup watching crew

Fox Sports' World Cup top-rated markets for ... Mexico vs South Africa 1. San Diego 2. Austin 3. Kansas City 4. Washington, DC 5. West Palm beach South Korea vs Czech Rep 1. Austin 2. San Diego 3. KC 4. SF Bay Area 5. LA

Trend I would like to see: Crowds in every indoor stadium booing the hydration break.

Scoring goals in the box is much easier when you’re allowed to push the defender 2 yards away from the ball.

That was a fun few minutes where Curaçao had a chance.

Curaçao are averaging one goal per every 155,000 citizens. For context, the U.S. would have had to score 2,194 goals against Paraguay to match that ratio. Pound for pound Curaçao have the best offense in history.

Remember this scene the next time a corporate reporter tries to insist that a rural diner full of white men in their 60s is somehow a more authentically "American" place, somehow more representative of who we are as a nation.

Can't wait for the cutaway to Mamdani watching the start of the Knicks game on his phone while at Brazil/Morocco.

Brazil looks so much better when they can get Casemiro on the ball to distribute forward and let the rest of the team run forward. Their press isn't as cohesive as Morocco's though.

Qatar is almost uniquely bad at soccer.

16 million people tuned in for the #USMNT World Cup opener. It's the start of a huge summer for the sport. How will MLS maximize the moment? Changes are coming ... in 2027. Why not 2026? I go inside the MLS boardrooms to show you why in The Messi Effect. us.macmillan.com/books/978125...

more like Can'tada imo

We need to stop calling them hydration breaks. They're quarters. When FIFA mandates breaks regardless of weather conditions so that broadcasters can show commercials, we already have a name for that and there's no reason to let them keep using a euphemism for cover

Bosnia up 1-0 thanks to a corner. Sticking to the “hit the corner as close to the goal as you can” strategy

Any Spurs fans want to come on @sufferingpod.bsky.social to talk about last night’s game?

Haiti won Independence and Europe has been fucking them over for centuries

Jim Curtain IN for Austin FC manager for the 2027 season!

It’s sad when your local coffee shop does a major change and what used to be a place with good options/service now has no one at the counter besides a cockroach that runs over your foot.

It’s be a really great time to promote the heck out of your MLS NEXT Pro teams, Major League Soccer. Especially in cities that don’t have a World Cup venue, or even those that do. It’s affordable, quality soccer in your city. Good crowd at Parmer Field tonight for FCito, 3 more before MLS resumes.

Oooh, a new Crazy Taxi. What's that on the Steam Page? And AI disclosure? FUCK THAT! #StopTheSlop

AMLO and Claudia Sheinbaum have lifted 13.5 million people out of poverty in the last 8 years, but NYT wants us to know that Mexico “can’t go on this way.”

"When people hear about the trolley problem, they only consider the folks tied to the tracks. They don’t think about us, the passengers aboard a runaway trolley about to have the unsettling experience of passively participating in the bone-crunching death of another human."

Sorry Spurs fans…

Austin FC's 3rd kit is expected to feature a purple base with a white horizontal chest stripe inspired by the No Comply kit. 
- White secondary crest
- White collar
- "AUSTIN" across the chest
- Matching purple shorts The jersey shown in this graphic is a mockup created based on reported details

Happy Pride month to those who celebrate, those who aren’t quite ready to celebrate, and those who support. 🌈 To everyone else, I hope a thousand birds shit on your car.

Every year for Pride, I repost Hue. I made him to send love and comfort to those who feel Pride isn’t for them because they aren’t out. You matter, you are valid, and it’s ok if you aren’t ready yet. Coming out is not a requirement for being part of this community. Happy Pride 🌈

Stutter, stutter more, stop, then hit it wide. Take three steps and blast it!

You are losing a Champions League final and you have two players in front of the ball. Congratulations on winning the rest defense trophy I guess

The opening goal is huge for Arsenal because they can condense the game down and play how they want and take PSG’s threat in open spaces. Bayern had to try and beat PSG at their own game when they went down early

Decided to write about it The Cowardice of Political Incuriosity www.wideleft.football/p/the-coward...

workshopping a take: if your entire way of playing basketball depends not only on there being referees, but on them being bad at their jobs, you deserve to be beheaded with a greatsword

Incredible how much worse this looks than the movies that came out decades ago.

Bruno's assist

Shoutout to Peacock for having the Spurs and West Ham matches available

Stuver deserves so much better than what the team in front of him does. Lazy passing and defending. Biro is jogging while his runner goes into open space right in front of goal

Whoever the new coach is they have to figure out a way to get this team to play as a unit and not as individuals on the field. Every player on the ball is harrassed, every pass is to the defender side, and requires at least a touch to create any angle, etc...

This Apple broadcast is almost unwatchable. Audio doesn't match and no replays

Set piece where they hit a square ball to a player to hit the same ball for a worse angle...#ArnaudDut

I'm not sure if the Ramirez pass to no one on the back post or Stuver hitting it directly at a St Louis player while he wasn't near his goal was a more WTF play this half. I think there will be more though

Based on the Starting XI for Austin FC I’m hoping it’s Owen as a second striker/10 with Torres RM and Gallagher on the left. Chaos would be Owen and Dani midfield with Rosales as LW

"Where to even begin? I mean, first of all, we killed a guy." buff.ly/Hvrn8oI

let's give it a try though

It's very clear what Austin FC needs right now in the #100yearwar This is a team that lacks heart and motivation. This team needs to take pride in their city, in their crest, and in themselves. They need someone to motivate them to run through a wall. Make it happen:

Rodo talked a big game but ultimately his best moves were about getting players out of the club as opposed to who he brought in. Nico was always a bad hire and looked worse as it went along. The team had quit on him and they need a new voice in the locker room.

Thank you, ownership. www.austinfc.com/news/austin-...

Not a good look.

Working on this morning's article; the stat of the season just got to an alarming level — Austin FC has now dropped more points from goals let in from the 68th minute in winning or drawing positions than POINTS THEY ACTUALLY HAVE
