When the USMNT inevitably crashes out. I'm supporting all of the small nations with populations equal to or smaller than our smallest states.

CAPE VERDE, POPULATION 560,000, QUALIFY FOR A FIRST-EVER WORLD CUP 🇨🇻

The second-smallest nation ever to achieve that feat. Every US state has a bigger population, yet the Blue Sharks are on their way to football's big dance. Astonishing and inspiring 🦈

For the record. I lasted a month under that manager before something else fortunately opened up and I was allowed to do the news how it should be done.

This isn't a shock. The mountain company has been moving this way for a while now. Naming way too young managers in local newsrooms who peddle sensationalism instead of solid stories.

"You're too New York Times, you need to be more like the Post" is something I was told more than once.

CBS News would never put a thinly sourced 'story' by a rookie blogger like this on it's air. Until now. The Free Press isn't a journalism outlet, it's bloggers aren't reporters. This piece is more NYPost than Tiffany Network but I guess that's the goal.

I had three thoughts on the turf conditions:

1. "Wow, it's not even WPIAL championship weekend."
2. "Why doesn't grass grow in that stadium?"
3. "How will they manage to blame Pitt and/or high school football?"

I had my doubts. But I think this kid could be a solid option at QB.
