Caps just got CONCACAF’d…in Orlando. That was a goal.

Not a single Real Madrid player on the field or on the bench for Spain today in their WCQ v Georgia.

Release the Epstein Files.

Lotsa guys in this game fighting for WC minutes and none helped their case with Marsch tonight.

I say this because the goal has to be to advance from our group and if we win the group we get a very favourable R32 draw that lets us stay in Vancouver for the game and potentially play a 3rd place team (and I have tickets for that game 😂).

Cornelius for me is the leader of this back four and will be thru the World Cup but if you’re a CB and are going to take a yellow, especially in the first half, it can only be to stop a goal scoring opportunity or to send a message and hurt someone.

Invention, craft and ambition still lag organization, intensity and physicality in this team; and that prioritization will only get you so far in a World Cup. #canmnt

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Partially agree but don’t think it’s “most.” Exacerbating factors were that this was the Olympics (global stage) and we Canadians think we are by definition morality incarnate and any perceived misstep means there has to be an incredibly overbearing clutching of pearls.

What Actually Happened During the Canada Drone Scandal | By Jasmine Mander I’m sorry for what happened. To the players, whose Olympic experience was sidetracked by this story. To the fans, who questioned their faith in the team.

Lotta truth & hurt in this piece. I got to know Jas a bit better the year before this happened. She has certainly taken an unfair share of blame for what happened. This is her take & she's leading with accountability. Would be nice to see others do the same. www.theplayerstribune.com/jasmine-mand...

It’s stunning that they say this stuff expecting a sympathetic ear and tut tuts for those selfish artists. “But what about the poor AI companies!”

If there's no decision in 20 seconds there was clearly no clear and obvious error and the initial call should stand. That should be the rule. I'm open to quibbling on whether it should 10 or 30 seconds :)

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

They have to. There's too many people trying to raise a down payment for a house with the current asking prices on the re-sale platform. There's just not enough people who can & will pay these prices. But yeah, it's sure sucking the joy out of the run to this WC.

Thanks Ken, I'd actually assumed I didn't get an invite either. I've lost track of how many rounds of invites they're doing for this Visa Presale. Could be more so keep an eye on your inbox!

And music is never out! Was just at the Commodore last night!

And yes it's been pointed out to me that I messed up and said it was Holland v West Germany in the '78 final. That was of course the '74 final and Argentina then beat Holland at home in '78.

In fairness it's been that way for awhile I think. But yeah, plopping down $60k on a 'trust me, dude' vibe is a bit too whimsical for me - not that I would've or could've bought them even if they were the best seats in the house.

But who needs the Visa Presale Draw when you just go in and quickly pocket two tickets for the final for $60,000? Took this screenshot a couple minutes ago.

I finished issue #68 of my Behind the Play newsletter last night Its scheduled it to be sent to subscribers at 9:30a this morning. It's about how awful this ticketing procedure is for the World Cup

Also this morning...I got an email from FIFA saying I'd been selected for the Visa Presale Draw. 😐

Anyone know what the actual betting odds are of the 2026 US mid-term elections being suspended? 2028 too if you have a source.

They really are. My sister-in-law brings them over for us when she comes to visit from North Van. Good old style donuts.

I’m a credit where’s it’s due *and* a have a poke where it’s due kinda guy.

What I meant was that $20 billion could easily have bought an agreement that they wouldn't extradite him regardless of the treaty.

Credit to FIFA for one thing. I can go into their re-selling platform right now & buy a ticket for the final. That was never an option for me in 2014 or 2022. There's one ticket available at Cat 4 for C$2840. Cat 1, 2 and 3 also show one ticket available. Cat 1 is $9240.

Advance payment for citizenship and no extradition back to the US should it become necessary. Argentina have experience in this realm.

It really is. My son played soccer and t-ball with Finn. My wife and his mom were friends thru that. No one then would’ve guessed such a quiet kid would become a famous actor. And yeah, the Mats are one of my faves so full circle. Also: Let It Be released this day in 1985.
