Victor Wembanyama could have signed an extension worth $302MM, and instead chose to help the Spurs out by signing one for $252MM, and it made me think of this Chappelle explanation of giant dollar amounts.

Egypt fans being pulled aside, patted down, and double-checked before the Argentina vs. Egypt match, while Argentina supporters were allowed to walk through security without the same level of screening. And this is exactly why people keep accusing FIFA of double standards.

🇳🇴 Norway manager Stale Solbakken: “Bad bad bad bad bad decision by FIFA that will hurt the World Cup. Not good for the sport. If they beat Belgium it will always have that extra thing about it. What happens with the next Red Card?” (From @bbcsport)

The Belgian NT posted this to their X after the team's fourth goal against the United States. #FIFAWorldCup

That’s hysterical 😂 When you have corrupt Sepp Blatter calling out Infantino for corruption, you know he f**€ked up 😂. I can’t stop laughing right now 😂🤣😂 #FIFA #Worldcup

People are wondering how Folarin Balogu was reinstated by FIFA after a red card. We all know how. 😂😅

Now France are protesting Michael Olise’s yellow card from the Paraguay game. I think FIFA might pretty quick regret this Balogun decision. Something about opening a can of worms.

Something about football not being played on paper. Canada had all the momentum. But they just don’t have quality up front compared to a top nation like Morocco.

Just missing that elite finisher. The question for Canada 🇨🇦 is whether or not that player is currently in the system as a 16-18 year old. #CMNT

OH NO! MY PHONE!

Part of what makes this so wild is... the mall is SO busy during the summer. So busy. For many many decades. Last August we were there for work, and... creepy quiet. No one wants to be there. The vibes are bad. Every flavor of cop everywhere. The contrast is incredible.

Some World Cup celebrating. The Tim Hortons cup is a nice touch. 😂 (Captain: @xfoil.vancouver) #Canada #Vancouver

You know if a man of that status is lying to you, we have much bigger issues to contend with.

The World Cup is proof that if not for our leaders, the vast majority of the world's people would get along just fine.

No Father’s Day is complete without this video. At the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, Redmond tore his hamstring in the 400 metres semi-final but continued the race limping and, with assistance from his father, managed to complete a full lap of the track as the crowd gave him a standing ovation.

NEW: Vancouver Whitecaps supporters are showing up in big numbers and the #SaveTheCaps message is already spreading across MLS fan bases. I spoke to Southsiders president Ciáran Nicoll about the project and it’s first game. ✍️ for @SI_FootballClub www.si.com/soccer/how-f...
