  1. It appears that the commentary was breaking the audio, they just cut it sounds much better.
  2. Or ManU ESPN has a breakdown. The TL;DR - if Either win Europa then it's 5+1. What's wild is that England can in theory get up to 11 European teams (unlikely): UCL - 1-5, Arsenal (win UCL & fall out of top 5), Spurs/ManU (Win Europa) Europa - 6,7 + Chelsea winning Conf League Conf League - 8 https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/44372662/how-premier-league-teams-qualify-champions-league-europe
  3. Looks good to me. But yeah, getting odd sound.
  4. Looks like it
  5. I find this to be kind of BS, but you can play the archive and boost your stats. Wordle too.

  7. I don't see anything about this up on NY Times or WashPo, but the Boston Globe has this up: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/17/metro/rumeysa-ozturk-immigration-denied-bond/?s_campaign=breakingnews:newsletter WashPo has an article up now: https://wapo.st/3Gqh9AF
  8. She was denied bond. Just seeing the news break, so more details soon. The more I’m reading this a load of hogwash. She’s been denied bonded in Louisiana where only the US attorneys presented anything. This has a little to do with her day in court in Vermont.
  9. This is smart. I’m shocked more teams don’t do this. https://amp.awfulannouncing.com/mls/games-linear-tv-fc-dallas-rewind-apple.html The Dallas Burn are showing their game on TV tape delayed. It’s something.
  10. Damn did Pulisic fuck Wynalda’s wife or something? He called him out. https://www.themirror.com/sport/soccer/usmnt-christian-pulisic-captain-1095056.amp
  11. I might ask how that would be amazing. That would just be: 1. Paul Mullin is 30 years old. He will turn 31 November of next season. Strikers notoriously start dropping off at age 28. His drop off isn’t surprising. I mentioned a few pages back. That doesn’t even consider that he’s never played at this level or higher where he’s potentially facing younger better opponents. He needs to find his form, but frankly, if they could sell him to a lower team/league, that would be the best way to go. Unless he’s willing to give them another hometown deal. 2. That’s just the nature of Soccer. Teams keep you when you’re useful. Get rid of you and you’re not. Sucks for Mullen. Everyone loves him, but if he’s not producing he, he’s not worth his paycheck. 3. I don’t think they should get Americans, they need to get the talent that fits what they want to do to win. If that’s American player so be it, but if it’s not then get the best that they can afford. 4. Finally realize should they get promoted next season their goal should be to do nothing but hold Pat. Making the championship with promotions and three successive seasons would be impressive feet. Holding onto that spot even more impressive.
  12. Yesterday was exciting - today meh. Both ties done by 65'
  13. I would argue both ways. Madrid doesn't look like they have it today and Arsenal is defending well. They are also keeping them honest with their offense having just enough punch.
  14. Wait - doesn't the UCL use semi-automated offsides?
  15. Have you never watched Madrid in the UCL? These fuckers escape death like you wouldn't believe.
  16. Messi is the greatest, sublime, beautiful! Messi is without equal!! Messi!!! Messi!!! Messi!!! And he's not even in the game. This looks offside BTW.
  17. Son has a foot injury - out tomorrow.
  18. Every accusation is a confession
  19. That's what I like to hear

  21. Let's not forget about Rumeysa Ozturk who had her day in court yesterday (hits close to home as she was kidnapped about 2.75 miles from my house). The defense was a habeas corpus petition for Constitutional violations by the government. While the government did a lot of hand waving "wrong state", "our fault you didn't know which state, but doesn't matter" etc. https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/14/us/rumeysa-ozturk-arrest-update-tufts-university/index.html As noted over the weekend even the State Dept knew she had no links to any sort of antisemitism or terrorism. Her only "crime" was writing an op-ed in the student paper speaking out against the University's response to the Israel-Gaza war. https://wapo.st/4iouvuJ
  22. Given the way those ended, any way to make this go faster?
