Trump planning to deport the entire Shakira cast the minute they stop dancing
Did Polymarket have a trade for the Count from Sesame Street to make an appearance in th World Cup final?
Fox Sports WC commentary just seems like they're filling time instead of narrating the game. "Lamine Yamal is 14 years younger than the guy defending him" "Messi doesn't have to leave the U.S. after this game because he plays for Miami"
