I guess Sisniega coming off his line and trash talking Antony before the pen worked really well. Not!

Loved the goal. But you want to talk about horrific ball watching by the keeper?

Common mistake, John. Saja is playing World Cup quality soccer. At the slightest contact, one should fall to the ground as if shot. Ideally, she'd roll around and hold her knee - but she's doing a great job hoping VAR will issue Charlie a red card.

You're welcome here any time! I hope you made your pilgrimage to Powell's where I've picked up most of your books!

From a day when the Electric Violin player from the Mothers of Invention could not only get a recording contract, but also get on the charts #NowPlaying #Vinyl #YTNOP Fantastic work by Daryl Steurmer and Patrice Rushin behind JLP

This first SciFi book I remember reading - when I was about 11 - was A.E. VanVogt's "The Weapon Shops of Isher." I fell in love with the genre after that. Hard to call it optimistic. And hard to say time completely moves forward.

@tombogert.bsky.social thanks. It's funny that we don't judge FOs around here on how they deal with players who want to move, rather only if players want to move. If we have a capable winger and an 8 in the process of signing, then the FO is doing it's job, I'd think.

Almost as unexcited as I am to see Miami given a 4th DP, or as I was for Seattle to get a free pass on re-entry rules. MLS is a half-step away from being WWF.

Does it come with a PRO ref handing him a gratuitous yellow? :-)

Good that VAR avoided all the drama. It left a giant black circle behind the line.

You need to ask your Uncle in North Cackalacky about his "Out of Office" message when he lived in NoCal.

Folks wanted Darlington to be a player he wasn't. He wasn't going to score 20 goals. Even if his talents were sufficient. What he was is a player that made 3 Cup Winners be Cup Winners. He changed matches on the dribble. Nobody in MLS might be better than he was between the 18s.

Been a few days since I could drop the needle on one of my old #vinyl LPs. #nowspinning #nowplaying - what an album... from the original 1970 pressing. Too many plays are still not enough.

I remember playing tracks from low at [then] WDFM [now WPSU] when this album came out. It's hard to recall how unpopular this truly awesome and industry-changing LP was.
Great choice!

So, every other MLS team gets a 4th DP slot and a few million Garberbucks as compensation for yet another Dempsey Rule acquisition?

Nothing will ever forgive Bruce ####ing Froemming calling Mota safe in Game 3 on 77 NLCS. A ball strike call is typical of a Phils west coast nightmare, but nothing will compare to the fat @hole's blunder.

Luna is beautiful. My tortoise shell best buddy had similar looks on camera, while being the most affable, social, and playful friend on could ask for.

Annie Haslem could cover 5 - yes, 5 - octaves with her voice. She's incredible. Renaissance was driven by piano, bass, and her voice. It's a very different band. I think Turn of the Cards was their best, but The Vultures Fly High and Ocean Gypsy both got FM play from this LP in the day.

Been off for a few days, had to mull if I'd use X "See how we are", or this for #Vinyl remembrance. #NowPlaying
