Re: USMNT - 2026 Cycle - "Early Days"
The other guy making a serious case at the nine/striker slot is Haji Wright. Assisted on the tying and then scored the winner in Coventry's epic FA Cup win to push them into the finals at Wembley. I wish he wasn't thrown into the mix last cycle, as he kind of hurt his stock. He looks ready, IMO. Th...

Re: More Backroom Deals Than Tammany Hall - A Youth Soccer Tale
Ugly scenes this weekend. My daughter's game ended a couple minutes early with what looked like a certain ACL tear for a girl on the other team. Non-contact injury, girl was down screaming for 5 minutes. Eventually loaded into the back of a Gator and driven off the field to the parking lot. Just saw...

Re: To the extent it comes up: Trump crap post-WH years
I can’t wait for New York to seize Trump Tower to cover the E Jean Carrol damages and someone to buy it at an embarrassingly low price, then rename it Obama or Biden Tower.

Re: USMNT - 2026 Cycle - "Early Days"
Had a bit of a rough Thursday and completely missed this roster coming out. I think I just assumed Aaronson would be in regardless of form because he has such a clear niche role on the team. He’s in now, de La Torre out with an injury. And Haji Wright in for Sargent. Sounds like Sargent is just a m...

This is more - shit that makes you feel better about getting old. It's an article about folks in their 80s and 90s still skiing.
