If you want me to read your work, do it somewhere other than Substack. Otherwise you won’t be getting my money.

Your first sentence is right but it isn’t VAR that has broken the game, it’s the completely incompetent officials.

Spurs deserve to go down.

Spurs fucked by officiating incompetency again. Rinse and repeat. They should just walk off the fucking pitch now.

There is absolutely no referring consistency in the Premier League.

Meanwhile Phil didn’t make a single tactical adjustment while they pressed the shit out of us and produced chance after chance in the first half, then waited 15 minutes after we went 2-0 down to make an attacking change. He can’t be sacked soon enough.

Generally brutal first half performance from the Timbers

Pretty tough to push the late kickoff back even further on a weekend night for travel reasons

Also they had a super cozy setup at B&C. Covered area, other carts. Now they’re just in an exposed parking lot. I don’t love it.

I love Tehuana so much and wasn’t a big fan of their move to VEB sadly

Ok, you got me back. This was perfect. I don’t know that they’ll find someone as good as Tinkle. I suspected that he actually might be the one to walk away. Seeing all of last year’s starters start elsewhere this season stung. Hope Tinkle can land somewhere with more resources.

there’s a good pizza bus called Hearth & Soul, they could post up outside

Yeah Deni is almost reaching Luka levels of complaining to the refs (and regrettably isn’t as good as Luka to justify it)

You could tell me Jerami Grant was running a one man tank operation and I would 100% believe you

It just sucks because he mostly *seems* like a good guy and has talked a lot about mental health stuff. But he’s still a rich white guy from LO.

my uncle runs a place in Anchorage that serves fish and chips, and he named the half portion the "Texas size" which is just an incredible troll

Reevaluation in 6 weeks is the second to last week of the regular season anyway so I’d assume he’s out the rest of the year unless we make a deep playoff run

The promo schedule on the Thorns website indicates there will be a friendly match in June that will include Juneteenth Celebration

Honestly ump scorecards did this for me. We bitch a lot about bad calls but seeing an ump get roasted all game and then seeing that he was 94% accurate for a game really drives home how tough of a job it is.

Perhaps bias was the wrong word. How about β€œa poor misreading of the situation”?

And to this. Do yourself a favor and look around some social media responses elsewhere to this announcement.

Beavers fans don’t want it.

Ducks fans think they are too good for it.

It is over as a rivalry in football unless something earth shattering happens.

We mourned it in August 2024.
