What are some opening tracks to albums that make you certain that the rest of the album is going to be great?

Im in a similar spot with my partner and Star Wars. She makes the valid point that most of us first saw it as kids, so now I’m scared to see her reaction lol

The Wolves have had Kevin Harlan, Gus Johnson and Michael Grady as their local pxp guy. That is an underrated and incredible fact.

On the rise of Michael Grady, and his efforts to stay grounded in Minnesota.

Black jerseys being worn 21 times, A-Aaron specifically mentioning that era as the “KG days”. Sounds like another announcement is coming

I agree that pushing the NFL games back even just 2 hours would probably help with US ratings, but I'd also bet the ratings will be good regardless.

As for European soccer, you should just start doing it. I need an Everton fan friend

FT | 🔴 2-1 🔵 - A narrow defeat in the 1st derby of the season. Gana’s second half goal reduces the deficit but it’s Liverpool who take all 3 points despite a much better second half showing from the Blues. Thoughts blues?

Bringing my dad to his first MNUFC game tonight. Really hoping there's at least decent turnout. It's a damn semi-final!

"I think if fans do feel that way and want to 'Save The Cup', they need to come and show up, whether it’s a first-round game, or whether it’s a semifinal tomorrow."

#MNUFC goalkeeper Dayne St. Clair wants to win the U.S. Open Cup, but the game isn't close to sold out. What gives?

Loons strive to get their audience to buy into the U.S. Open Cup

Ticket sales are lagging for Wednesday’s semifinal game against Austin FC, and it was no better for the round of 16 and the quarterfinals.

A lot of fresh, exciting new faces at Everton this year. So, naturally, I took the time to write about Dwight McNeil instead. royalbluemersey.sbnation.com/everton-2025...

Idk, I think that’s a great barometer/attitude for the players to use, but we have the luxury of looking at it more objectively.

Early preseason thought exercise:

How deep into the playoffs would the Timberwolves have to go for you to deem it a "successful" season?

Wow: 78 year old congressman Jerry Nadler decides not to seek reelection, saying Biden fiasco showed need for "generational change."

“Watching the Biden thing really said something about the necessity for generational change in the party, and I think I want to respect that."

Nadler, Pillar of Democratic Party’s Old Guard, Will Retire Next Year
