This was no ordinary World Cup qualifier. Norway’s discomfort in hosting Israel was clear and an enormous security operation was deemed necessary in Oslo.

The prospect of peace in Gaza has moved closer in the last week, but Norway told the world again that its alliance is with Palestinian people.

Norway vs Israel was months in the planning for authorities, but politics seeped through

Officials from both teams discussed Gaza and the controversy of Saturday's game, while there were protests and a small number of arrests

Can someone on the alliance council ask Adrian about this directly? And frame it in a “what are you personally doing about it?” way please

As someone whose time freelancing for MLSsoccer was a vital step in my career progression, and someone who generally gleans insight from the observations of others:

This sucks so hard.

MLS is using generative AI to write match recaps. Writers used to get paid freelance rates to do that. Hssssss.

Literally nobody in charge at MLS has ever met a soccer fan in their entire lives

Granted, this is a bit niche and your mileage may vary but this video has never not made me laugh until I have a stomachache

We could also have a V2 rocket strike in Poisson distribution across Seattle every 12 hours but that would also be a bad idea

Downtown could have "like, a 10-foot wall" where people could talk to AI versions of historical figures. "How cool would this be if we had like, a 10 foot wall. It's interactive and it's historical. And you could talk to Martin Luther King."...

Yeah Norway is about 100 years behind Denmark on this front but it’s still about 100 years ahead of most US cities

Why do we so rarely hear from the Premier League’s sporting directors?

In Germany, they pass through mixed zones and press conferences. In England, they’re allowed to work in the dark and face no public questioning.

A column, for @theathleticfc.bsky.social

How many times is this same article going to get published? Everyone knows consistent, maintained, protected bike lines — especially if they’re separated from roads — and legal protections for cyclists and heavy penalties for dangerous drivers makes for good / safe cycling conditions

Even though nobody wears bike helmets in the Netherlands, the fatality rate there is significantly smaller than that of the United States. What have they figured out that we haven't?

How I Learned to Cycle Like a Dutchman

In the bike-friendly Netherlands, cyclists speed down the road without fearing cars. For an American, the prospect is thrilling—and terrifying.
