Imagine you work your fingers to the bone as a ballboy and some idiot comes along and undoes all your hard work. Fuming.

Last week's draw felt so much like a win that I forgot it wasn't.

I am pleased with this reply!

And the only team with a road win is Champagne of Beers FC. We'll accept your apology to Wes whenever you're ready.

really nice floated cross from Padelford

stop me if you've heard this one before: Loons set piece goal

some concerts for Forward every year, which I'm sure help.

I believe ownership has said they haven't turned a profit yet but in context that's not clear whether that means they're profitable year-to-year (but haven't paid back all of the investment to launch the club) or if they are losing money.

And the attendance situation is much different - I would guess average of 4.2 or 4.3k in a 5k capacity place. very often full or close during summer.

I still worry about them though because of stuff like this!

That makes sense, especially in that there's not yet a reliable pathway to sell players (so as to give another revenue stream).

Forward Madison season ticket holder here.

Do you think that's true across the board, or is it a city/market the size of Statesboro can't generate matchday revenue that's sufficient? Really bleak attendance for at least last year at Statesboro.

they sound like they're broadcasting from inside a cement mixer

How is it that we can get to two weeks before the USL season starts and South Georgia Tormenta only just now says, oops, we don't have money to operate this year.

Forward Madison loses their July 4 home game thanks to this - I'm sure ownership is delighted to lose a sellout.

Context: this speech is from SIR THOMAS MORE, a history written, as near as scholars can tell, in the early 1600s by 6 or 7 people including Dekker, Heywood, Chettle, Shakespeare, and Munday.

It was never performed, because Jacobean England was a police state and it was banned by the censor.

Repost with one or more current reads.

Any man's death diminishes me,

Because I am involved in mankind.

And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;

It tolls for thee.

A few days ago, I stood in the graveyard of an 1100 year old church, getting damper and damper in the drizzling rain.

A woman walked into the graveyard, waved, said hello, and, as we had previously arranged, handed me a paper bag full of human bones.

The life of a churchwarden is a strange one...

Ooooooof.

Drop a lawyer.

Caesar II here.

Ed, I hope you're doing okay.

Oh wow @reuters.com got the photo here:

I've gotten to the point of my ministry career where I just want to say: if you don't believe God wants us to exist in the future, that God will bring the Church into the future, then get out of my way ⚓

The last paragraph of the first inaugural has been pinging around in my brain all week. That last sentence is justly lionized.

Wasn't able to be there tonight and my season ticket buddies texted me to watch the replay and tell them what I saw.

And uhhhhh fellas I never saw a clearer red

Detective fiction by a landslide
