I will die on the hill of, once a player is in motion for a penalty kick, they must continue forward momentum. This stop/start shit is unfair, & unless I care a shit ton about the team, I laugh my ass off when someone (yes, even him) does it & misses. The keeper has a hard enough job. Ridiculous.
For the better part of a year, I've been looking into the night LaGuardia Airport was bombed. I'd appreciate it if you'd give it a read. slate.com/news-and-pol...

@knickerbacker.bsky.social · 2mo agoI started writing my recap down 21 in the second quarter because I didn’t want to stay up late. I just kept typing. I have not gone back and read or edited it. It’s 3400 words. Also, my house lost power when Castle was at the line at the end. Read it here: knickerblogger.net/2026/06/2026...
