New episode with Jill Thomson from Scottish Sport for Palestine about their important report on UEFA & FIFA participation in, and support for, illegal Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestine Territory

Since this report, which no mainstream media have covered, FIFA has removed the links to the FIFA+ broadcasted from the Occupied Territories. This is an incredible admission of guilt by FIFA. Infantino absolutely realizes he could be going to The Hague. Will any media outlets care?

New OLF!

Boycott is the bare minimum response here. No other team in the history of the World Cup has been treated this poorly

Important commentary on the 'MAGA World Cup'

Excellent, excellent conversation which evokes some deep feelings in me – that I'll share some other time ;-) @privaricate.bsky.social @nkalamb.bsky.social @caradrianh.bsky.social

New episode with @caradrianh.bsky.social! Really enjoyed the conversation on the politics of the media, and the upcoming World Cup

New episode out now!

At the Congress, a Canadian journalist said: “The only place where I didn’t get escorted was the toilet.” An important intervention by @josimarfootball.bsky.social!

It was a pleasure, as always, to learn from Jules! An illuminating conversation about the people's game

If you're in Toronto today, please don't miss this important conversation on Palestine and sport. Registration still open! Register here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

With a month left for the World Cup, our latest episode features a conversation with @julesboykoff.bsky.social about the myriad issues that plague the tournament.

You can't miss it! My favourite comrades are in town and we can't wait to be in conversation about some very important questions related to sport and Palestine

The question is clear. The response suggests that the Canadian Senate Human Rights Committee has determined that if a Jewish person considers critique of Israeli genocide to be ‘antisemitic,’ then the committee accepts that premise at face value—including, explicitly, on university campuses.

New OLF out where we laid into Infantino's charade at the FIFA Congress last week

Palestinian & Iranian officials were barred from entering Canada for a kick-off meeting to the FIFA World Cup. Canada must choose: Will we be a global host, or a U.S. vassal state? By @derekcrim.bsky.social, @carolynprouse.bsky.social, @nkalamb.bsky.social, @dansailofsky.bsky.social, & El Jones

While the US continues to expand its fascist tactics in the name of hosting the World Cup, Canada is keen to follow suit. This great piece makes sense of the shambles on the day that FIFA Congress takes place in Vancouver.

ICYMI: Charisse Burden-Stelly breaks racial capitalism down here!

This episode was a lot of fun to record because @tonyjballas.bsky.social & Gerald Horne generously shared a number of anecdotes & recommendations. In this clip, Horne speaks on the most-quoted Black person in the financial press (arguably) - Mike Tyson

New episode with the amazing @reveleth.com!

If you're in Toronto on May 11, please come out to the University of Toronto's downtown campus where I will be speaking with my comrades about sport & Palestine. Register here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

I can only assume this is a case of appalling behaviour by Canadian authorities.

Boxing and US Imperial Decline Gerald Horne and @tonyjballas.bsky.social join to explore US imperialism and the complex intersections of boxing, race, and culture. open.spotify.com/episode/0aPv...

It was a pleasure to host @tonyjballas.bsky.social & Gerald Horne on the show!

'Want to sidestep steep parking prices and take mass transit instead? Sorry, sucker. Despite the fact that the “Unity” bid promised that “Spectators will have complimentary public transportation to and from the stadiums on match days,”you’re going to pay through the nose thanks to local authorities'

It was such a pleasure to chat with @lalehkhalili.bsky.social!

Thankfully the Italian team won't be shameless enough to accept this, one hopes

From today's OLF episode!

We are back

Here’s my take on why we need to burn down sports psychology.

Our latest with Lauren Beasley!

Horrific that this is the way we find out these days

Tomorrow evening in Montreal!

26 years old from South Sudan. He has been in the US since age 13, when he was recruited to the country for basketball. Now being discarded as if he was human refuse. Shame on Syracuse for not intervening. www.syracuse.com/news/2026/04...

An essential read ahead of the World Cup!

New episode out today, ahead of the WNBA draft!

New OLF out now!

Trump's cognitive decline is at par with Biden now. Everyday is worse than the previous one, an incoherent mess

Just your everyday hockey fans.

New episode out with @withgracetoo.com!

ICYMI: Abubaker Abed on the different relationship that Palestinians have with stadiums as opposed to Israelis who use sporting arenas as torture camps

This is probably the most important interview I've ever done. Very grateful to Abubaker Abed for sharing his thoughts with us

As Macron (didn't) say, sometimes it takes time to be proven right

Football legends like Messi & Ronaldo are well aware of these incidents, and yet they are happy to legitimise Trump and Israel's inhumane vision bsky.app/profile/nkal...
