Fox’s discount deal for 2026 World Cup rights a decade ago may cost FIFA as much as $1bn in lost revenue. After courtroom revelations FIFA seriously considered taking legal action to claw them back. Story on how Murdoch’s Fox secured deal of the century: www.nytimes.com/2026/05/24/w...

If I’m not evolved enough to understand it, then why did they have to steal my writing to train it?

Can Union get points in first-half finale against Messi and Miami? @tim-lovenguth.bsky.social | @metrophilly.bsky.social | #DOOP www.metrophiladelphia.com/stories/unio...

Antonee Robinson, Brenden Aaronson, and Tyler Adams all starting in their respective Premier League season finales today. Chris Richards OUT as previously confirmed by Oliver Glasner. #USMNT

Wilfried Zaha’s underwhelming Charlotte FC stint is over. He was a useful attacker, but needed more talent around him to maximize his gravity. Now Charlotte have a DP spot to play with. They need a winger.

Geez, it's enough to make you to start to lose hope for the season... #DOOP

It's Pentecost #DOOP Day in Miami. Pink vs. Blue, Herons vs. Snakes, Inter vs. Union, "The Beckham Experiment" vs. "HELLO MY NAME IS ZOLO", coming at you live from Nu Stadium at 7pm on AppleTV and FOX. Everybody tie your shoes.

Gio Reyna vs Diego Luna is going to be a divisive decision, so I ran a statistical deep dive for my column: Spreadsheet Merchant sponsored by Draft Kings:

Big day for two USMNT players: Aidan Morris starting for Middlesbrough in promotion playoff final vs Hull City, 10:30 am ET (Paramount+) Auston Trusty starting for Celtic in Scottish FA Cup final vs Dunfermline, 10 am (ESPN+)

To no surprise, Aidan Morris starts for Middlesbrough today against Hull City in the EFL Championship Promotion Final. #USMNT

I am assuming the Diego Luna listed here is the Andor actor, not the right-footed RSL winger with the cool tattoos.

Be careful they're reading your tweets

Friday Stat Dump: Crosses It's been 3-5 years since the whole debate about crossing good vs. crossing bad was waging, and, to some level, it's been going on since around 2017. To me, there are times when crossing can be good, and times it's clearly not good. First, who crosses a lot? 1/

#USMNT fans are anxious for the roster. Players are, too. But Diego Luna tells me that even being 'on the bubble' is a blessing, though he gets butterflies when he thinks of what it would feel like to make the squad. www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Musah went 90 for just the third time in 2025-26 across all competitions

Mexico plays its first friendly leading up to the World Cup tonight - a strange game vs. Ghana in Puebla that may not leave us with many lessons. But we do have a good idea of who will make the El Tri roster! My projection is live on @usatodaysports.usatoday.com: www.usatoday.com/story/sports...

Pickle Rick, hell yeah! #DOOP

As we await USMNT World Cup roster announcement Tuesday, getting word that, in addition to Matt Freese, Matt Turner and probably Chris Brady, two 20-year-old goalkeepers will join camp for training purposes only: Barcelona’s Diego Kochen Philadelphia’s Andrew Rick

Carnell on E. Tanner: “On the first of June, there might be some announcements with regards to the whole process and the whole saga over the last seven months and what’s been going on. So maybe there will be some clarity there too, and hopefully that will guide us in the right direction as well.”

Oh, hey, look. It's me!

Where is Austin's money coming from?!? Are Union buried under the Montreal logo? You would think that because they have one of the smallest stadiums in the league they would want to make up for it by getting someone that would sell some jerseys... #doop

Thanks. Jason and I have been doing this for a long time now, and it’s always enjoyable.

Pep Guardiola will be involved with New York City FC in some way after leaving Manchester City. The announcement of his departure revealed that he will become a global ambassador for City Football Group, who own NYCFC, a role which will include giving "technical advice" to CFG franchises.

Fox plans to take its World Cup studio show on the road to fans at games, college football-style. It sounds obvious, but it still had to be decided on. I talked with the head of the network’s soccer production about the plans: www.inquirer.com/soccer/world... via @phillysport.bsky.social

It can be hard to keep track of where #NWSL games are streaming (and what time the actual kickoff will be, based on the provider…) So I created a website to help! Check it out here ⬇️ nationalwomenssoccerleague.com

Comandante Zohran: Getting stuff done

For the first time in 10 years the Rapids have beaten another MLS team in a knockout competition! For the first time in 20 years the Rapids have beaten another MLS team in the Open Cup!

How many degrees of separation is this from Running Man?

I'm still pretty amazed we kept Arfsten relatively quiet last game I thought for sure he was going to run rampant, but he disappeared for large stretches of that game ...must have been the coaching lol #doop

you know how badly you have to fuck up to throw a WORLD CUP and have nobody come?
