Norwegians are not particularly “nice”. He absolutely meant that Trump has neither courage nor integrity. My daughter and I were just talking about how her midwestern friendliness sort of scares Norwegians. It’s not in their DNA.

Norwegians are a stoic and no nonsense people (I was married to one, have a daughter who lives there, and have visited 17ish times.). You ask them a question and they will give you a concise answer. So when he says this, it is exactly what he means.

If so, thank you for your service! I would love that!

Sergii Demianchuk. Another ref to add to the I hope we never see him again list. He has been pretty dismal tonight.

Target taking all the right steps to regain market share. How crazy to make it less likely that I will buy something there when they need the business. But that’s OK Target - you can go on and close it on out and ensure I do not come back.

A little protest of the ICE raids at lumber stores by a worker at Home Depot? Typo? I am going with protest!

As we eagerly await Wessam Abou Ali’s arrival, one of the most decorated Palestinian soccer players of all-time was killed along with dozens of other starving civilians by an Israeli air strike. His crime? Trying to get food. #crew96

A picture of Allison posing with SC the Crew mascot. It stands in stark contrast to the professional, highly manicured headshots of the other nominees. Is it connotative of her laser-focused, selfless commitment to volunteerism and uplifting Columbus Soccer Community? Well that may be reading into it a little too much. It’s not like the other nominees aren’t great people who give back to their community. But would you really have time to get a fancy headshot if you were giving back to the community all the time???? Allison McKinley works with the Greater Columbus Golden Boys and Girls (GCGBAG), a soccer supporter group and lifestyle brand for the Columbus Crew. As part of GCGBAG, we not only up the lads in black and gold each match, but we also work with community partners to help make Columbus the greatest city the world has ever seen. Allison’s work with GCGBAG has helped to raise money for the Community Refugee and Immigration Services (CRIS) to help the organization continue its mission to serve immigrant and refugee populations in Central Ohio. Through donation drives, fundraising, and even sponsorship of families during the holidays, Allison strives to take her passion for the global game and channel it into action throughout the community.

I know I have some teacher friends. I cannot pretend to be any sort of an expert, but I am sharing in the event this is helpful.

Why is the sound of an animal crunching away so adorable while the sound of a human crunching away so gross? Anyway, enjoy the crunch!

Join me in lining High St on August 9! The Crew game is away that day so think of this as a city wide tailgate! You can pick the most convenient section of High that you would like to go to. If you are a friend and need a spot, pick by me and park near my place just a couple blocks away!

I saw that feeling on a lot of faces tonight!

Much like in Save the Crew, there is a lot of power in an 8.5 x 11 piece of paper. If a bunch of people have them, then they are more impactful than a TIFO because they can be deployed over and over throughout the game. Every dead ball. Before. At the half.

Tell me more about these noodles!

No Farsi, no speed which means they always have numbers back. Please, please, please let Gazdag do something impressive in the 2nd half. MOTM so far is Nagbe. He is solid as always.
thisisjo.bsky.social
I agree. I want so badly for Gazdag to impress me. So far, no luck with that. I am still hopeful.

If you are not a Crew fan, there are plenty of opportunities in June to sign the petition. Most larger gatherings of people will have volunteers collecting signatures! If you check out the linked sign up forms, you can find a bunch of places and dates! 8/8

I have attached a sign up for those who want to help with signature collection. You’ll have to page through to 6/14 and select the Lower.com event. The coordinator (a Crew fan and season ticket holder!) will have a table at Hocking and Nationwide to distribute and collect the petitions. 7/8

We need a total of 400K+, so every person willing to give a couple hours makes a difference!

There is little we can do that has a definite impact at the national level, but this is something that can positively impact Ohio. 6/8
