While I’ve liked Bissell Brothers in Portland, it’s more a general gathering spot. For actual games on screen, either Gritty’s for EPL matches or Portland Zoo for Hearts of Pine away matches.

The non-sequitur responses from Pam Bondi at today’s hearing tell me that she ONE HUNDRED PER CENT knows Trump’s on the Epstein files.

Last night:

⚽️ Teenage has restored my confidence in him.
⚽️ Denkey’s goal—hang it in a museum.
⚽️ We lose this game against Miami or Philly.
⚽️ Evander’s MVP efforts ended tonight.
⚽️ The Alvas Powell Show.
⚽️ Gidi is a revelation but what is his role when Obi’s back?

It was product over process for Noonan’s side—a recurring theme for ′25. FIRST HALF There was no difference in the offense and midfield for Noonan’s lineup, aside from Engel being shifted up to left wing-back.

I’m not posting that AI brain rot that our president keeps putting on his social media feed.

“It’s funny, can’t take a joke?” they say.

MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell

JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too

D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals?

J: I didn't see it

D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.
