6. Let one player run around with a cricket bat and he can whack the ball.
Existential Comics@existentialcomics.com · last mo.As an American here are my humble suggestions to improve soccer: 1. Get rid of offsides. Stupid. 2. Have the clock stop and count down. 3. Let them put on pads and helmets so they can bash each other. 4. More stoppages for commercials. 5. Let them pick up the ball. Never been a fan of kicking.

World Cup history until now. In the past 40 years there has only been 2 first time winners. Since 1950 there has been 19 world cups completed and only 6 first time winners. Its only ever had 8 different winners total. Currently exactly half the remaining teams haven't won.
Obviously. But again, you don’t need to demean Balogun. This site is so anti-man, anti-American it’s obnoxious. You can be progressive, support women and also support the USMNT as they didn’t choose the politics of any of this.
This Danville, VA city council candidate made a very dramatic video about sidewalks and public safety, and I love it and him. Worrying about a possible milkshake duck situation, I looked at his FB page, but he seems ok. Juneteenth celebrations, community outreach, Methodists. A solid old gent.
All of this talk about Alexi Lalas seems to be people getting worked up over nothing. Hate poisons the soul. Marcus Aurelius speaks...

Juneteenth: How news of the Emancipation Proclamation spread through the South

She Faced a Life-Threatening Miscarriage. Under Arkansas’ Abortion Ban, Even Calls to the Governor’s Office Didn’t Help.
Her case shows how abortion bans have left hospital lawyers, not doctors, deciding who gets care — and how lawmakers and regulators have failed to change that.

Great news for those of us such as myself and @transitmap.net - DART has a new rail diagram, straightening out some of the kinks (literally) on the Silver, Orange, and Green lines that bugged us so much dartorgcmsblob.dart.org/prod/docs/de...

1969 me to 2026 me: Wow, 1969 is such an unprecedented time for me to be alive. We're going to the moon! But we're also fighting a senseless war. And, to top it all off, we're being led by the most corrupt president in our history. You're lucky to be beyond that. Right? Right??
America's guiding principle at this point is DoubleThink. It envelops an immense amount of putting thought into action and the media absorption of those actions.
Jonathan Cohn @jonathancohn.bsky.social · 5mo agoIt is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist. He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.
All of my Texas friends should follow @ericmgarcia.bsky.social . He writes for The Independent and has a much better grasp on Texas than most big media heads. His takes are well thought out and often avoid the Texas stereotype traps of MSM and Blu Sky echo chambers.
