Happy #Crew96 STM renewal day to all who have to do math to figure out how much their tickets have increased.

Messi might have to pick up the pace. Start moving a brisk walk.

This 2026 World Cup was supposed to be different. The hope built up around this #USMNT was enormous. It ended like it always does. Only this one stung more. www.nytimes.com/athletic/742...

Yes the #USMNT shit their pants in the most meaningful men’s game in history, but at least MLS fired their entire organization earlier this year, oh wait shit

Max Arfsten gets to play in a World Cup after all. 🖤💛

On behalf of all USMNT supporters everywhere, special thanks to Donald Trump for wrapping the team in distraction and scandal before their biggest game ever. Really appreciate him getting his grubby tiny hands all over this.

Well, that was quite a two minute drill.

personally I think FIFA should throw everyone a curveball and say Mamdani convinced them to rescind the suspension

Belgium have no idea how soccer works in America. Inter Miami have about six DPs and they’re only allowed to have three.

The thing to keep in mind is that with the event more than halfway over, the USMNT having a successful World Cup is much more important to Infantino than Trump at the moment. And it’s not really close. Infantino doesn’t really need Trump anymore.

calling to do corruption on behalf of somebody they don't believe should be a citizen of the United States

This is just like when FIFA arbitrarily lifted Ronaldo's red card suspension except it makes the team better

This is the worst part. If you were going to re-litigate it and overturn the red great. But instead fifa just made up a fake get out of jail free card… which as a us soccer supporter I WILL TAKE

you can’t just let the fascists take everything from you. it’s how it works. they cling on to everything good about a place and claim it as their own and if you don’t fight for the stuff you care about you’re just letting them have it.

🇺🇸⚽️

a) there are, like, single digit trans girls in sports in most states (sometimes literally one!), this entire thing is made up so that one girl who wants to play sports with her friends can't do it b) do not, under any circumstances, make policy based on angry sports parents

Something I want liberals to get more comfortable with is staking out values that aren't dependent on credentials or institutions.

if you don’t think some asshole softball dad will humiliate a cisgender girl for hitting an oppo bomb off their daughter by challenging their gender you have never met a youth sports parent in your life.

Justice Thomas, also in dissent, similarly claims that it "devalues" citizenship to recognize the children of "birth tourists and illegal aliens" as citizens. Again, as if the quality of American citizenship depends on who else is a citizen.

I can’t bring myself to be too celebratory. This should have been a 9-0 slam dunk. My main takeaway is that there are currently 4 votes to undo a longstanding constitutional guarantee that 15 years ago seemed beyond any serious question.

I hate the term "biological sex" so much.

Two games go to shootouts in one day. I love this World Cup.

when it zoomed out I gasped

Apparently the Germans can lose on PKs after all 🤷🏻‍♀️

I hate this. #crew96 Our only DP left for the season will be ... Daniel Gazdag? I sure hope there's some big plan that we just don't know about yet.

Cape Verde! Steven Moreira 🎉🎉🎉 #crew96

Sheesh

Lunacy. Here's Emmer 10 years ago.

Is the GOP having a "Most Evil White Man" contest today or something?

normally a problem when those teeth come out but love to see them here

Post Columbus pride parade + pride parade party husky love. I think she’s only a little mad she didn’t get to be in the parade too.

I got to see a Messi hat trick at the World Cup with probably like 50,000 cheering Argentina fans. While not an Argentina fan myself, it was still a surreal experience. My pano photo is a little wonky but it captures a moment.

Drinking my $22 Michelob Ultra (😦) but hey at least they gave me a free fan

In KC, one of their street cars is wrapped with a promo for their women’s soccer team featuring pics of their key players. In Cbus, I expect us to wrap buses with the likeness of the stars of our new NWSL team when they debut in 2028! 🎉 cc:crew96

going to laugh forever about the Knicks only losing the Trump Game immaculate scriptwriting, no notes

FIFA: "We need mandatory hydration breaks in every match regardless of temperature for player safety." Also FIFA: "Fuck the fans, we're going to take every last penny until they literally pass out in the stadium."

This answer alone should destroy this administration. This conversation is essentially: “people are hurting.” “ceos are fine.”

—Guy gets a potato egg and cheese taco —republicans decide to make it a campaign issue —they call him vegan instead of vegetarian even though vegans don’t eat eggs or cheese, because vegan sounds “worse” —guy isn’t even vegetarian, he just likes tacos

I’m so excited for Max! #Crew96 www.nytimes.com/athletic/730...

File this under things that make me very happy. 🖤💛⚽💛🖤

"Mayor attends huge local sporting event and doesn't even get comped seats or sit in the best spot" is such a hilarious way to try to burn someone, really nypost.com/2026/05/22/u...

The vice president of the United States is just standing up here saying people should feel sorry for domestic terrorists who were given free and fair trials and were then convicted in a court of law. Absolutely despicable.

Every GOP member of Congress should be asked by the press whether they agree Trump can use $1.7b that we, the taxpayers, paid so gov’t could work for us, as reward money to his supporters.

They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.

And there it is, folks. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/05...

The Columbus Crew are excited with Laurent Courtois, even though former Crew boss Wilfried Nancy is without a club after leaving Celtic: Tall: "Last I remember, Wilfried has European aspirations. We want to stick to Laurent and give him the best tools to succeed.”

Okay hear me out. If we need to rest Rossi because of the schedule I understand. We can’t have him get hurt. But then PLAY Chase Adams. Their kids score on us. Let our kids score on them. #Crew96

Excited to live in a country where you can mail someone a handgun but not an abortion pill

We live in a time dominated by deeply unserious people making deeply unserious arguments in support of tragically serious results that serious people would have both avoided and known to avoid.

These people never take responsibility for anything. Spirit has lost over $2.5 billion over the last several years. Joe Biden didn’t cause them to run a shitty, unprofitable airline. Then they got hit with soaring jet fuel costs from Trump’s war. bsky.app/profile/atru...
