I have concluded we are at the beginning of a four year crossover show between Veep and House Of Cards, and anything I might accidentally see on the news I actively try to ignore is merely a plot twist in this week’s episode. You deal with reality in your way; I’ll deal with it in mine.
A few years ago my kid was playing that Nintendo game where you build your house and decorate it and have a garden and acquire stuff and she was “look at how cool all my things are” and I almost cried because kids are living their lives on a game box bc the things I had irl are so out of reach.

My understanding is that the higher-seeded team got the choice, so I’m assuming Sweden had the choice and forced the U.S. to play with the yellows. I totally approve.

This is the second consecutive year I have needed and been far more interested in analysis of the halftime show than in analysis of the game. There were so many messages: the sugar cane, the telephone poles, the flag, the local celebrities who appeared… it was a masterpiece of political art.
If you didn’t catch the significance of the exploding transformers in Bad Bunny’s halftime show, I gotcha. Here’s one of a bunch of pieces I wrote from/on Puerto Rico about the crisis—and Trump’s role in it. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Issa has certainly done better this season than last season. We didn’t get a recycled MLS coach and we added some promising pieces.
If Rudy is healthy and playable that is big, and if WAA stays healthy we should score. Whether we have a cohesive midfield offensively and defensively is a question.

I guess that commercial was pre-released, because I saw it earlier this week, but the head-on “horse with wings” shot still gave me a little chill. IDGAF about the beer or the nationalism, but it is absolute cinematic genius.

Announcers just told us why Bad Bunny was the halftime performer when they showed the overseas watch parties and talked about 9 overseas games next year. The US is a mature, declining market. The sport's growth is overseas, so they don't really care what Trump and MAGA think.

The "relax your tight end" commercial for prostate cancer testing was funny. Not sure if there was another good one.

My favorite announcer. Sees things before they happen, points out the mismatches, and brings more insight than any other announcer.
If you aren't old enough to remember him as a WR, he was also the most intelligent route runner in the game.
