Pragmatic Idealist. Chances are I’m just as wrong as you are, and you’re more wrong than you’ll ever accept.

The World Cup is about two things: Secondarily (a quite distant 2nd), it’s about watching men with incredible skill use said skill to control a ball into an opponent’s goal. Mostly, however, it’s about paying very, very, very close attention to where dudes are standing. That’s most of it.

That was just further evidence that most offsides is generally fucking stupid. There’s preventing cherry-picking, and then there’s just the ball LITERALLY BOUNCING AROUND OFF OPPONENTS IN THE BOX. HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT’S STUPID.

Once there was this guy named Howard Dean who was instantly adjudicated unfit for the presidency because he yelled, “Yeah!” kinda weird. I’m literally talking about the exact same “office of the president” that exists today. Not a different country or anything.

More back-to-back games where the $ I paid @mlb & @padres goes down the drain. Hope some more MLB apologists think I’m irritated because I don’t know how broadcast rights work, and not because ripping people off is a FUCKING STUPID WAY TO DO BUSINESS IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR FANS #cancelthe27season

Third straight day the @padres are blacked out on the @mlb plan I bought so I could watch their games. The league-destroying lockout/strike cannot come soon enough. With any luck, the whole thing will collapse and we can start again without the bull$#it.

The WBC isn’t the MLB, right? They don’t have to parrot the bullsh!t talking point that even though the Pirates literally make a fraction of the money large market teams make, they should just spend the same, right? ONLY the billionaires in large markets should get to do it for profit!

Ref show at New Mexico. 🙄 Lobos lose control to out of bounds? Lobos ball. Two players get hands on a jump ball? Aztecs foul. I know the New Pac12 is just the “MWC Plus,” but the fuck the former Mountain West forever. Good riddance.

20 min into 1st 2026 SDFC game, and it’s 20 min more than I watched all last year. Kudos to Apple and MLS for figuring out what MLB can’t: make it easy to watch and people will. And people watching might become invested.

Me: “They don’t have the votes against Rob. He already won the battle against Natalie. They should just vote her out to confirm it’s Rob, and take him out at the fire.” Tara: “I’m confused and…” Natalie: *immediately goes full psycho* Tara: “Okay, not confused anymore.” #TheTraitorsUS

Lot of people blaming the refs for defensive backs not playing the ball and then tackling dudes before the ball even arrives. Wild. Josh Allen missing Kincaid to win in regulation or throwing 4 picks also the referees’ fault.
