Sadie and I chatted w/ @wbur.org on our way into @bostonlegacyfc.com’s inaugural match. 30K people showed up, and the energy in and around the stadium was amazing—from the sold-out South Station train there to the tailgate to the concourse to the final whistle. Fans of all ages, colors, and creeds ⚽️
It was an absolute honor to make this tifo - our first - for our Boston Legacy FC, and see it take flight before kickoff at Gillette Stadium on Saturday. The design honored the team's swan crest and important locations for its first year, featuring landmarks from Foxboro, Rhode Island, and Boston.
My guess is no guts
Angel City led 1-0 at halftime, then scored three times in the second half in a commanding home win at BMO Stadium.

Wait so on @sheplaysinc.bsky.social how do we see how we earned our points? I see my point total (85) and my position in my leagues (not bad, I’m happy), but… which of my players earned me points and who sucked?
And can I not see the team composition of others, only what their total score is?

Where, may I ask, are the “First Amendment absolutists” these days? https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-treason-charges-media
CBS’s Margaret Brennan sounded aghast and unbelieving when Iran’s FM told her what Trump had said:
ARAGHCHI: …there are, you know, people being killed only because President Trump wants to have fun. This is what he has said--
BRENNAN: --have fun?

Though Meryl Streep has won 3 Oscars - she's actually a loser failing 18 times.
Are you saying that getting a lot of nominations is *bad*? Are you saying that getting a lot of nominations and *winning some big ones* is failure? Is this just for Black movies?
It flies...🐞
So what does Trump do now that he’s cornered in the Strait of Hormuz? https://robertreich.substack.com/p/so-what-does-trump-do-now
Pope Leo tells journalists: “It is up to you to show the sufferings that war always brings to the people; to show the face of war and to relate it through the eyes of the victims, so as not to transform it into a videogame.”

We have to be honest with ourselves about how much racism drives our country.
We should also watch out for leaning on "racism explains everything" so hard that white folks get a false sense of security about what the conservatives' dream future would actually mean for most of us."

I see Floof is stoned as usual
The reason for the request for Europe to join the war is not because he thinks Europe can do what the United States cannot. He desperately wants to make Europe complicit in his boondoggle to give him political cover and the sheen of a leader as consequences come home.
a particularly maddening part of the past 14 months is how so many other countries have played along with even trump’s most reckless ideas. to see others, especially allies, finally telling him to cut the shit is actually comforting, in a way.
I hope the folks who manage the band Dire Straits find a way to capitalize on all this, at least.
Roger had a very productive weekend.
