Why do we so rarely hear from the Premier League’s sporting directors? In Germany, they pass through mixed zones and press conferences. In England, they’re allowed to work in the dark and face no public questioning. A column, for @theathleticfc.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/athletic/669...

Ok I’m going back to bed. Love you all. Peace and goodwill

I liked that one game where we won 7-0. We should do that again every game

Good first 30’. Wasn’t a huge fan of the last 60’

Good grief

Terrible spot to give a foul away

How many times is this same article going to get published? Everyone knows consistent, maintained, protected bike lines — especially if they’re separated from roads — and legal protections for cyclists and heavy penalties for dangerous drivers makes for good / safe cycling conditions

Sounders sleep walking into knife fight with a desperate, bad opponent smh

Sounders complete a couple passes challenge

Leyva should have taken that

Gooooooall

despite my best efforts at google translate i'm 98% sure this woman at 2am in Thailand gave zero fucks about why i asked to take a selfie with her นั่นคือทีมจากเมืองของฉัน ฉันอยู่ที่นั่นตอนที่เราชนะ!

The guy who just subbed on for Norway at LB, Bjørkan, is the guy I want the Sounders to sign for that position

can you guess how old this banjo I’m playing is?

Would like to beat the Blue Jays. Would like that. Would enjoy that.

Geno I’m begging you

The athletics transition from a pay to read site featuring the very best sports writers to a pay to read site that now acts and reads like a clickbait site but still charges you has been predictable but disappointing. Anyway if you want to have good writing on your site hire Jeff

I am all for consumer protections and a stop to price gouging etc but I spent like 500 hours killing monsters on the Witcher 3 and the various DLCs and think I spent a total of like $90 on it. I don’t think there’s better value anywhere

wtaf are you talking about

The USMNT doesn’t deserve Cristian. Please send him back

Washington State when?

Good lord

Remember that 50 cent song patiently waiting where Eminem says that the terrorists hit the wrong building on 9/11 and actually they were trying to hit shady records. That’s kinda silly

Gritty win by Arsenal there dang

Looks like someone finally turned Aston Villa off and turned them back on again

The duality of man

Ugh

Need to score some goals today imo #analysis

“Official crypto partner” of Tottenham Hotspur huh

That Paul Anderson knows how to make a movie doesn’t he folks

Idk man, one of these guys called 60+ Ws from behind the plate

Oh my god

Thank you James! 👏 After two years in charge, Head Coach James Riley is stepping away from Ballard FC to pursue new opportunities. We thank James for his leadership and the incredible impact he has made on our players, staff, and community.

Read everything Táíwò writes but especially when he’s flaming Ezra Klein, one of the most insidious dweebs we’ve ever had to endure

Former MLSer Mateusz Klich on Inter Miami via Sport.pl, translated from Polish: "I advise against Miami while Messi is there. It's a disaster of a club, people are fleeing from there... Organizationally, it's bad. Messi's father is who really runs the club."

Very excited for this guy to be Inter Miami's shadow GM in 2040

@jonmackenzie.bsky.social lol at you explaining the OT origins of the word glean on a football podcast

This dude is such a fruit loop

It’s almost impressive how poorly the plan of “get hot through Leagues Cup and ride that momentum into the playoffs” has been executed

So now we’re without Obed until the playoffs basically? Maybe back for NYCFC?

Well, at least we didn’t get any rest for either center mids again.

Gonna pivot to mariners

I’m so sick of all these early sounders games

I promised myself I wouldn’t get suckered, wouldn’t let myself care again, but that Victor Robles catch may have just broken me

Damn what a pass by Iwobi there. Laser guided

Imagine being a Chelsea fan though fr

Gall dang I love Mikkel damsgaard. He’s the only PL player that could pass as a 75 years old man
