If it holds, we are going to see unrealized levels of concafery in at the azteca next round. The england hotel will be non stop fire alarms. Bands playing all night in the streets.

No stutter step.on that last pen. Always run through it. Always.

I cannot take these penalties. It is too much.

I do not support Paraguay or Germany. My heart rate should not be this high.

Stutter stepping on a PK should get you disqualified idc

Made it to world cup day 19 before seeing James corden on my tv. I wish everyone a much longer streak.

Shared a link with my youngest, who after five minutes on the app, said "this is extremely my shit".

Diced a jalapeno and immediately touched my eye. Maybe 14 seconds between the two actions. New household record.

Trying to explain to my kids the importance of the Tom Emanski commercials in my ability to remember Fred McGriff and it's gratifying to see the absolutely bewildered by (old) pop culture references.

WE 👏 NEED 👏 A 👏 WORLD CUP 👏 NIT 👏

In a loud, boisterous voice: baseball.

There is a hand-painted FC St. Pauli banner on the third floor of @civilhumanrights.bsky.social. A FIFA official saw it last week and recognized it as something he made when he was a 16-year-old runaway living in a punk house in Hamburg. The People's Game is worth your time.

Just got uncomfortably sweaty schooling my children in air hockey. I regret nothing.

One of my mentors passed and while I am incredibly sad, my first thoughts were about how he made me a better person and that I wouldn't get to sit at his learning tree anymore. Glad I got to know George.

Even like 10 years ago this kind of overt racism would have gotten a sportscaster fired

Update: knees and ankles feel great. No need to ice. Great show.

There are worse places to spend an afternoon.

People said Occupy was a failure and it ushered in 15 years of actual political engagement on economic inequality People like to call BLM, Abolish ICE, etc failures and, no. Spontaneous mass protest moments rarely win immediately. But they change the political environment and lay the groundwork.

Taking my kid to a Midwest emo show tonight. Wondering how many other older dudes are going to be watching world cup qualifications on their phone. I feel like there is a health overlap.

Egypt and Iran have requested that Pride events in Seattle during their World Cup match be canceled and… no. Welcome to Seattle. This might be the most patriotic I’ve felt in my life. Pride isn’t happening during your game; you’re here during Pride. Suck a rainbow. apnews.com/article/worl...

This might be a fatal wound to me.

@hoosierhomer.bsky.social did you order concrete?

22 year anniversary. I out kicked the coverage.

Subscribe friends! Kickback and TSS have been the totality of my World Cup coverage and I still can’t keep up with everything they are putting out 😂

Yeah, that’s the America I grew up in. When I say the anti-trans playbook now is the same playbook as they ran in the 90s against gay people, I mean the SAME

Tore out all the knob and tube circuits in the house and replaced them with romex.

Suarez is pacing around the Miami stadium, looking for a cape verde staffer to assault.

Dads are up, eating yesterday's leftover wings, drinking coffee, and getting ready for a day of world cup games.

The pearl jam entry is way too close for comfort.

PSA: you are not listening to enough erasure.

Paints houses for cash only six months out for the year. Ski bums the other six.

When Warren fucking barton has the right analysis on your miss, you know you've really fucked up.

Post usmnt victory can check.

Had no idea I'd become a huge zlatan fan this world cup.

We keep a bowl of trail mix on the kitchen counter for snacking. My father came over last week and plucked every m&m out, leaving anything moderately healthy behind.

Hearing Maurice edu call a world cup game is night and day from hearing him call an mls game. They must have apple tv execs in their ear like Vince mcmahon during a ppv.

Can't imagine living anywhere else.

Going to disagree with the author and say it's actually one of the most important things to read about the world cup. Snaves rules. Go read it.

My coworker drops his tiny hat on my desk. Me: man, you got a tiny head. He looks around sheepishly. Me, in an attempt to recover: it's fine. I have a giant head. Him: I know. We talk about it. Me: who the fuck is we? Him: I should leave.

Seattle. Literally has a song written about it.

Oysters are gross.

Pair this with a book on world war 2 or wooden boats and this package sells out.

Most hated people in world cup coverage, based on my bluesky feed: 1. Warren barton 2. Lalas 3. Tie between James corden and zlatan

Take that, metricians.

Getting rid of the headphone jack is up there with legalized gambling, re: the dissolution of society

Saw this and now I'm singing west ham guys to the tune of West end girls.

The only proper thing for curacao to do is to go full concacaf.

Everyone who is scared of cities and multiculturalism is a loser.

People may dislike Alexi Lalas, but he’s doing more for domestic Spanish language fluency than anyone in American history.
