Following US Soccer around the World is something I have loved since the early 1990s. Watching FIFA suck up to dear leader while price gouging regular fans out of tickets makes me ill, yet my addiction won't let me turn the draw off. Yay soccer and all its emotions.

2018, Russia: "Fuck this, I'm not watching a World Cup in a fascist country. I'll just wait four years."
2022, Qatar: "Fuck this, I'm not watching a World Cup in a fascist country. I guess I'll wait another four years..."
2026: So I guess the joke is on me.

I miss Grant more than ever for so many reasons, but especially this.
We lost so much when we lost Grant. Not only was he the greatest American soccer writer but he had the guts and integrity to call out corruption, sexism, and bigotry regardless of what it cost him personally.
Very few people in sports media (or any media) are like this!

The best part of this is that it was entirely paid for, designed, hand painted, rigged, and pulled by the fans. The TA is something special, and they proved it again tonight.

#PTFCOriginStory is from the field side. I'm running down the field and I see Timber Jim on the sideline running with a running chainsaw above his head. I was shocked and awed. The Army chanted "Blue Bastard" at me after I called a PK against them to tie the game in the 85th. Respect.

Alex Lawson to Rep. Miller-Meeks: Last time you spoke with us you lied to our face and said you wouldn’t vote for Medicaid cuts, but you’ve voted for the largest cuts in the history of the country.
Do you have any comment on the health care that 67,000 people in your district are going to lose?

I KNEW HE WOULD DO IT! I always believed, Cory Booker! Congratulations. I see you, I love you, I'm so proud to be from NJ.
@booker.senate.gov has broken the record for longest time holding Senate floor.

Fell asleep to Sen @booker.senate.gov, woke up to Sen Warnock preaching "holding a vigil for our nation." I love this so much. Thank you, Sen Booker. More please.
Here's my prediction: he's going for the record, which is 24 hr 18 m set during the fight for civil rights.

Literally my entire feed now is people asking these questions so I am going to throw them here *one more time*
Booker's speech is *not* a filibuster technically as it was not aimed to delay a specific measure.
While not technically a filibuster, in six minutes it will have at least delayed a vote.
