  1. Oh man, that could have been a penalty, but he got a shot off so it's not called.
  2. Solanke disappoints. Absolutely should have gotten a shot off.
  3. This letter of the law is ridiculous. Now Arsenal is forced to wear black?!!?!?
  4. Close. Spurs need to keep on the pressure.
  5. What a jackass. At least he could go with guns or some shit. That’s been said about Democrats for years. They haven’t taken a single gun, but they’ve been saying it. Going with taking children is just outright crazy. Dude isn’t just in the deep end. He fell into the Marianas Trench.
  6. I’ve been meaning to talk about this, because I really found Pulisic’s comments weird. Isn’t that was TEAM leaders do? He can say this, but shouldn’t he be looking in the mirror about this? Glad to see Holden take him to task on it.
  7. So this Haaland kid might make it in the EPL.
  8. The quote was there is nothing for young people on twitter. DJT is the oldest presidential candidate to be in an election. The kids these days don't want that. They want things that are fresh, Twitter wasn't that. And it wasn't that Twitter pre-acquisition was growing slowly, it was that it was shrinking. @atomheartbevo nailed it - the kids are driving the social media bus and Twitter was left behind long ago.
  9. Comments like that make me think Pep would be interested in coming in POST 2026 and running the whole shebang of the USSF. Granted, I didn't see the comments or know the whole context, but that what I am hearing in that 4 word phrase.
  10. While Leon has accelerated the demise of Twitter, it has been a stagnant platform for a while now. The next generation of social media users (likely those in the class in this example) has been using other platforms for a while now. There is a reason why Insta, Tik Tok, etc have had such influence and it really predated Leon. I would argue that Twitter has never been anyone's primary social media platform, it just had it's moments. But that was fading before Leon. And with people fleeing in droves due to him turning it into the cesspool its making it's influence fall further. Hell, look at Taylor Swift's announcement - it was via Instagram not twitter.
  11. Kind of funny that a guy that has lived in Austin ... checks notes ... 3 years has a PAC named Saving Austin when he clearly doesn't know the first, second or even third things about the culture of Austin.
  12. These two. The guy has been on TV for years doing this. I think I recall him back in the Obama elections doing this.
  13. And so we can be done with the chatter about pay ...
  14. Also wanted to say love the fact that the first NLD is at home. Catching Arsenal at the right time (their injuries & suspensions).
  15. Bentancur has been charged by the FA for "an alleged breach of FA rule E3 for misconduct in relation to a media interview." His actual punishment is up in the air right now. There is talk it could be from a single game up to a dozen, compared to similar cases that have come up. https://www.skysports.com/football/live-blog/11095/13025489/tottenham-transfer-news-rumours-and-gossip-live-updates-and-latest-on-deals-signings-loans-and-contracts The TL;DR is that Bentancur made an all look same type comment about Son. I think that this is right in there with stupid things athletes say. You can't let it go and he has to get some sort of punishment. It reminds me of wben Bernado Silva tweeted a racist picture to Benjamin Mendy for his birthday. Does he mean anything bad by it? No, but it's still not something to be said. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11679/11860441/bernardo-silva-manchester-city-midfielder-banned-and-fined-over-benjamin-mendy-tweet
  16. I queued up the video for the interesting part the "spacewalk". They "lose" the live video as the hatch opens likely in case there was a problem. You do get the whole "how many SpaceX engineers does it take to open a door?" moment. Bummer we don't get to see the hatch open - just from closed, cut away, then open. Still, this is impressive. Hope the suits took care of what they needed to take care of beyond providing atmosphere to the astronauts. The engineering teams should be proud.
  17. So this hasn't gotten a lot of talk the last few days. Yes they did launch. And the capsule is in space. and the spacewalk is scheduled for just over 9 hours from now.
