The news honestly put a pep in my step

What a fucking w for pasteurised milk this is, Haaland you've let your country down

John Strong has completely lost the ability to pronounce Ødegaard’s name correctly

Tommy Tactics

The prophecy foretold

Fletch wants to marry Doku

💀

A *lot* of stuff in here (you mightn't need an accompanying cup of coffee so much as a vat of the stuff) but, among plenty else, some detail and explanation around why you've seen Aramco plastered all over this World Cup www.nytimes.com/athletic/733...

Saying "I do" at the altar was, until feminists got the laws changed in the 1980s-1990s, was considered a form of irrevocable consent, in that the law held that a husband could not rape a wife. When this ruling came down in 1984, NY became the 18th state to overturn that.

A stutter stepping center back is my new sleep paralysis demon

If Fletch plies us with another American sports analogy I’m going to blow my brains out

"The Paraguayan government said in a statement Monday that it “deplores and rejects” the senator’s comments which “in no way represent the position of the Government of the Republic of Paraguay...” for context, the govt is led by the same right wing party that held power during the dictatorship

First Cristiano Ronaldo, now Folarin Balogun. When a Somali referee can't get in the country it's "unfortunate" but we should "chill and relax". No qualms with the Iranian team being ferried across the border as soon as possible. Brazen and shameful

We dem boyz forever, Leo. A proper bagsman and champion

Happy heavenly birthday to the greatest pup that ever was. We miss you dearly, sweet girl

Heat and humidity as severe, prolonged and far-reaching as this week’s would have been “virtually impossible” in the Northeast and eastern Canada before humans began warming the planet, a team of scientists said on Friday.

*slaps roof of new york* this baby’s got everything

Leo > KDB

Impressive, Harold

Where should Arsenal send the bill?

Romance is not dead

Hahaha mark Clattenburg saying he’d give a penalty. That was a classic Harry Kane dive

Jaw dropped

Here’s Why Weather Forecasts Have Seemed So Inaccurate Lately. Meteorologists simply aren't able to gather as much data as they used to, and you're suffering for it. gizmodo.com/heres-why-we...

My favorite bit of commentary coming today from Warren Barton on the importance of Haaland: “Norway, they love him ‘cause he’s one of ‘em”

The “Big 4” for Golden State

I’m sure you’re bogged down with asthma research, Jurgen, but there’s a clinical trial underway to combat Arsenal Derangement Syndrome and it’s available to people who make up statistics about Arsenal in a sorry attempt to deflect criticism of themselves, their team, or their nation. LMK

You had those guys for years and couldn’t teach them how to identify pitches. Why should I listen to anything you have to say? Because you were a good player when men in their 40s were growing up?

Yay

Landon Donovan avoids criticism bc the hater orbit of Lalas is rightfully enormous, but my god he’s awful

Tomiyasu vs Vini, Jr.?

You guys sure love Bon Jovi haha

I’ll keep an eye on Bukayo

NYC pool season begins today

Nobody does it like us

For anyone interested in a rational (and funny) discussion of the Mendoza firing

the distraught selfie videos are going to fuel me today

But can he do it on a warm, stormy summer afternoon in Philadelphia?

How can you not be inspired

Wasn’t liking the look of our Nov-Dec run. Checked City’s fixtures. Grim Christmas/NY and Liverpool and Villa in their run-in. But the most important factor next season after the World Cup is whose hamstrings turn to pulled pork, and when, and with how many others also out injured at the same time

I appreciate Chris lending his voice here. Troy Deeney gets paid for his “analysis.” I’ve seen “terrible guy pundits get stick all the time” as a defense, but no one dismisses Troy Deeney’s opinions entirely bc he’s a man. I’m so tired of these thick misogynist losers

James Dolan waited until the NYPD has secured all the Knicks parade attendees in their "viewing pens" before taking out his guitar and performing the single most appalling version of "When Doves Cry" in human history.

Okay, not to harp on about it, but people were so incredibly wrong about Rice’s corner threat being reliant on illegitimate blocking. I’d be embarrassed to be one of those people watching this.

Well done, Noni. Very smart run

A peach, Declan

So far, Elliot Anderson and John Stones have been called Declan Rice. We’ll get the hang of this “soccer” thing one day

Oh god. Fletch
