The consequences of media failure. From a relative in the US (and no, she’s not one of Trump’s “coastal elites”):
“Feels like I’m watching everything bad happen and we’re all just going about things like nothing is wrong…It’s absurd to watch history try and start repeating itself.”

A private citizen, with the backing of the President, illegally shut down a major government agency over the weekend and it is not on the front page of this morning's New York Times

Bradley Carnell has arrived as Jim Curtin's replacement at Philadelphia Union. What do we know about Carnell, his style of play, and the current state of the Union roster?
A full breakdown of Carnell and the current state of the Union:

It should be an actual rule to have a one-paced run-up that always starts from behind the penalty area. Stuttering = indirect FK to the defending team.
I'd also add that the player that wins the penalty has to take it. If it's a hand ball then the taker is the last to touch it before the foul.
Far too big a story to put it behind a paywall

Spoke on Khusanov in the summer as one to watch at the Olympics! (That was the last video on Just Another Football Podcast before shifting to Arabic content)
Strong tackler, covers lots of space very quickly. Exactly what City need.
More incl. Bard, McGlynn & Almada👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4D2...
Imagine we wake up tomorrow to Trent, Virgil, and Salah signing pre-agreements with Real Madrid.
Ratcliff's part-ownership of Man United is a solid 0/10 so far.
You are looking at an Egyptian being the greatest player to ever grace English football competition.
Can we please not
Option 2 please
i recall a time when using a private email server was the single greatest scandal in american history. i guess today’s it’s just tuesday www.politico.com/news/2024/12...
Pretty amazing that after their botched broadcast Tyson v Paul they're still getting rights to other sports left right and center.
My answer to every one of these instances will be "well what did you expect?"
No PL referee actually knows how football works, I'm convinced
- Get VVD on the right side of defense and sub Szoboszlai for Endo
- Outswinging corners are a bad idea most of the time
- Weird weird weird game, probably not much chance of coming back here, I'd take a point
He was only fired today??
I saw someone say maybe they should get an open play coach 🫣
Palmer VC, the captain was Salah 😎
The casual Islamophobia that's come out of the Sam Morsy and Mazraoui stuff really sucks.
Mohamed Salah has now played exactly as many games for Liverpool as Thierry Henry did across his legendary eight-year stint at Arsenal.
And the numbers are remarkably similar. Up there with the all-time greats 🇪🇬👑
To be clear here: Even if they announce contracts for all 3 this morning, the stain is just as big. The stain grows darker and nastier every day they aren't signing.
I honestly can't believe it. The best 3 in their positions in the world, all at the same club, all so far allowed to leave on frees.
FSG not offering contracts to Salah, Trent, and Van Dijk yet on December 5 is one of the massive permanent stains on their time at Liverpool. It's nothing less than negligent.
3-3 at Newcastle is fine btw. I'm just reeeeally dreading Saturday now.
Man United may or may not have scored the moment I posted this
Absolute football club are Bodø slash Glimt
I can't wrap my head around buying Mamardashvili, still. Obviously increadible GK and that's why it's so weird..
