My take - it was the friend who "gave the joint to Terry in a murderous rage" so perhaps Terry was acting in self defense?

It would suck to have no soccer games in the summer, with kids out of school etc.

So from a practical standpoint, how would they schedule the switch? Play a mini season Feb '26 - May '26, take a break for the summer / world cup then resume in fall of 26 for the 26/27 season?

That's on the fans!

Dude thinks this is rubgy

THE PORTLAND TIMBERS HAVE WON A PLAYOFF GAME FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE DECEMBER 4TH, 2021. REAL SALT LAKE CRASHES OUT OF THE PLAYOFFS AFTER CRASHING OUT ON THE FIELD. TREE POINTS AND A SERIES WITH SAN DIEGO. #RCTID

Literally no one I listen to in the pundit sphere gave my Portland Timbers a chance. Just saying.

Maybe he thought he was playing rugby

Interesting how they had to explain the difference between association football and rugby. No mention of gridiron football.

Scan on an old article from The Morning Oregonian, Saturday, October 21st, 1893: The third game between the Astoria and Portland football association teams will be played on Multnomah field this afternoon, commencing at 3 o’clock. There is a marked difference between association and university or Rugby football. The latter is the more commonly played in the country, though in the former science is brought into play more than actual strength, the foot being used to carry the ball, instead of the hand. The only exception to this rule is the goal-keeper, who is permitted to handle the ball....

Today in 1893 there was a soccer match played at what is now Providence park.

Big "if" there

Christen Press felt like a ‘villain’. The ex-USWNT forward played long enough to become a hero The World Cup winner doesn't view her professional career as 'storybook,' but a journey full of lessons

Retirements call for flowers, but also reevaluation. Christen Press’ career defies neat storylines of success on and off the field, even as she retires as a two-time World Cup winner.

The bleakest thing about this video is that all the things this guy loves about the UK are relatively cheap and easy to build. Alabama could have a better train system than England inside of 10 years if we decided that was a priority. We are a rich country that chooses to live like a poor one.

Hi, I'm from Marin county. I can tell you that apartment building will be enormous, an absolute eyesore, destroy several local businesses, take away public space, dominate the town and only house rich people. Not a good thing for Fairfax.

Nooo

Dude what the actual f*ck…way to piss off 90% of your fans

Sure!

Right? I spent the morning watching boats sailing on a gentle breeze on the Willamette, the afternoon cycling through a bird sanctuary and the evening cheering on a soccer team. Hellish place, this.

'We don't go to football, we go to Union Berlin' ❤️

Union Berlin, a fan-owned club that turned pro 2 years ago, is making its debut in the Frauen-Bundesliga & already has the 4th highest avg attendance in Europe. Built on passion, fan power, & unity across men's + women's teams

These quotes make me happy

she posts videos of them trying to get away from her on tiktok that are sped up yakety sax style and scored by norteno music, theyre hilarious

That win was massive for several reasons:
- Keeps Portland squarely in the playoff picture (and with a shot for top 4)
- Surpasses their road win total from 2024
- Wins them 4 points out of 6 off a key Western Conference rival

Ten league games left. Onward. #RCTID

You couldn't have picked a better day for it? You chose the same day that the Timbers are playing in Seattle? #BAONPDX

MLS, almost every sport entity wrongly conflate human rights with “politics.” Abductions of people off the street by masked, secret police is not political, it’s human rights violations. Killing unarmed, starving people at food distribution sites isn’t political, it’s genocide. Do better.

I *am* a constitutional scholar and you are correct.
