American soccer has produced the Boston Legacy temporary tattoo glory hole and "absolute fornication" in like 9 days, these are unhinged times around here

There is something deeply wrong with this franchise from the start.

If you give me some time to consider artists I actually listen to, I'm sure I'd have another. But really, the conversation starts and ends here.

It seems like a lot of people still don't know that he admitted to his lawyer that he committed sexual assault. We know this because his lawyer was hacked, so it wouldn't be admissible as evidence in court, but we still do know that he told his lawyer he did it.

I think that if you take a popular vote, some may say Chicago's is Chance or even Kanye. But I think that it's Jeff Tweedy. Just a dude who's done a lot of work in Chicago with a bunch of Chicago people.

Despite all that I've said about a certain major conservative influencer, I think the winner is probably still David Hasselhoff. Although, our rival school also claims him. So either Jake Elliot or Jeff Hornacek. Less "famous", more interesting: we also had the inventor of Beanie Babies.

Update on my NC Courage save. Casey Murphey, who's refused to sign a new contract all season until I finally set her to be released at the end of the season, was not called up to the USWNT for the Gold Cup. Her incoming replacement for next season, Phallon Tullis-Joyce, was. Get dunked on.

Dawg, what?

90% of my animation friends are unemployed. I'm on hiatus. The value of animation is proven every year. Greenlight new shows! Don't overdevelop. Don't chase trends. You can't chase trends w/ animation! It takes too long! Tell good stories. Take risks."Demon Hunters" was a risk & look how it paid off

If you enjoy soccer coverage that goes at all deeper than #narrative, the FBref news is truly grim. There's virtually no money in the space, and the people that do have paying jobs to in further depth are not getting budgets to pay for other options (which run well into the thousands per year).

I'm sorry, WHAT is this MLS B-Plot?!

The Chicago Fire are back in action today as they take on Nashville SC in their first match of 2026. Here's 5 Things we're looking for as the team gets back at it www.meninred97.com/5-things-wer... #cf97 #VamosFire

I gotta tell ya though that was one helluva sophomore slump from Caleb Williams. Chicago Fire play at Soldier Field 48 days from now.

Send this to your local ICE agent to scare them

AP Music Theory and AP Statistics. Maybe Music Theory was a D.

I would like to remind people that I literally only played the first game because I was informed about how good the character creator was. And then I somehow got about 2/3rds of the way through a Souls-like despite being absolute ass just because I wanted to look at the character longer.

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this: America's problems are solved problems. Just not here. What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵

I wrote an entire column on Elliot Collier that multiple people have consistently called me out on because I was being way too nice to such a shit player. But like... How can you not love that the hardest working player on the team was also still the absolute worst?

The Rascal saga ends next fall!

NWSL Designated Player time!

Why is everyone talking about John Lennon being murdered? What happened on Monday Night Football?

I got home way too late to order food to bring with me for lunch tomorrow, but shouts to the local Halal dudes. Cause I just ordered a wrap that'll get here literally minutes before I gotta go to sleep.

Okay, seriously last thing. We treat athletes in women's sports like they should be above chasing the money like their male counterparts. Players want to make millions. They leave to make millions. Being a woman doesn't change that desire. Pony up. Time's ticking.

nwsl owners do not want to have the best league in the world, they want widespread mediocrity that they can position as 'parity' and 'the most competitive league.' it's literally the nfl model attempted in a sport with a global market that can and will leave the nwsl behind.

The NWSL is built on the idea of destroying itself. It dreams of being the WPS because that league was able to fold. How else do you explain this type of shit?

I started a new "Funemployed" save of the new FM and, despite only having like, one level above my real life coaching qualifications, I was immediately offered an interview and a job coaching the NC Courage. And honestly, that checks out. Time to save Ashley Sanchez's career.

Every YouTube comment under a song is either “who’s here in 2025!” Or “this reminds me of the day my house burned down with everyone inside”

I love this take and I'll stand by it. It makes sense.

I just realized that I can sign Cristiane to the Red Stars in the new FM and no one can stop me. Welcome back to Bridgeview, legend.

This game came out 22 years ago. We need a remaster.

Love this, actually.

New Sad Bois episode! Took a bit to edit, but it's another example of how we really are barely a soccer podcast anymore, but @adnanbasic.bsky.social really does need to find Logan Pause.

My pizza place thought they were sending me a nice thank you perk for ordering from them every week on Sunday nights, but they gave me garlic cheese french fries and now I don't know what to do with them.

Meeting people who care about the things I care about and having an activity to do with those people that furthers that goal? That sounds a whole lot more fun and effective than a dating app. And it sounds like community.

How does CNN hire so many dweebs? Like, every single person missing the point of the speech. Stupid, out of touch, dumbasses.

Mamdani is the biggest shining example of what Dems need to do to get that young man vote. Just a normal seeming guy who cares about things. Honestly, they should've learned it from the Timothee Chalamet moment last year with "Lisan Ball'Gaib", but this is actual political proof to just be humans.

Zohran at the rally for trans youth on february 8 ❣️ he was polling single digits.

Everything I've heard about Hachaama recently just makes it sound like she's in a really dark place (and that maybe her family isn't the best place of comfort for her). I hope she's okay, I hope that Cover doesn't come down on her after that stream, and I hope that her friends can be there for her.

Such a stupid thing to do with 2 outs, bases loaded. Running through your left fielder to make a catch. But it worked, we move.

Had a chat(z) with @fcnaples_ head coach & sporting director Matt Poland ahead of the expansion side’s @USLLeagueOne playoff opener this weekend. On his first season in charge of the pro side, his time at Chicago House AC and more @OnTapSportsNet #FCNaples ontapsportsnet.com/chicago/fc-n...

from sarah gorden:

Why's Timothee Chalamet bringing a horsepick out to Klein?

Cutting to the third base cam when the play's at first. Everyone's tired.

You guys... Classes have ended at my school just now.
