RIP to one of the coolest mother fuckers to ever do it

Woah, 16-year-old Gilberto Mora has been given the start today for Mexico in their Gold Cup quarterfinal!

He has REPEATEDLY condemned antisemitism. REPEATEDLYYYYY He ran hand in hand with a Jewish man!! He had a HUGE amount of support from Jewish New Yorkers!!! JEWS ARE NOT A TOOL FOR YOU TO USE TO HIDE YOUR ANTI-MUSLIM BELIEFS BEHIND

We are heartbroken to learn of the passing of Hall of Famer Dave Parker. A legendary Pirate, Parker spent 11 years in a Pirates uniform, winning 2 batting titles, an MVP award and a World Series Championship in 1979.

If you didn’t know anything, who would you think was the socialist and who would you think was the Republican?

if you are a moderate or right leaning human who wonders "how the hell did people making over $100K vote for a socialist," there are plenty of economic reasons, but he was also a candidate who physically put himself on the lines against the people who are taking away our fundamental liberties

We saw a lot of this right after COVID-19 and all these guys moved back because they got bored of Miami/Austin/wherever.

Not a wine guy, except for two types of white wine that are attainable in NYC but harder to find: - Assyrtiko wine from Greek islands - Txakoli wine from the Basque area of Spain The new bar (Milly’s) in my neighborhood has Txakoli! And it’s from the Basque region, has the official seal!

If only there was a word for people who feel unsafe because of how someone looks

Are you not entertained?

Cuse star 🍊

the attention econ has only made being hotter more of a superpower

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social now that you're the dem nominee for mayor can we focus on the real issues... which striker should arsenal sign?

everytime fox posts something about Zohran it makes it seem cool as shit #Arsenal #COYG

Freshman year, Syracuse loses at home to Rutgers in 2OT. I go to church Sunday night and QB Ryan Nassib offers me a ride home in the pouring rain. “You go to the game?” he asks. “Yup, tough loss,” I reply. “My bad on that one,” and we say in silence the rest of the way home.

I mean, in the end, he won a major competition before Arsenal did

FIFA 2003 and SimCity 3000? He was a Bluesky poster before Bluesky existed.

A steadfast refusal to see reality until it comes around to bite him two months later: Zohran really is a proper Arsenal fan

wrote about the good of the Club World Cup, gonna have more coming about the rest of it soon, but hey, I'm in a good mood this morning open.substack.com/pub/acpregle...

This kind of hate is disgusting, and a reminder that those in charge need to be fought, not reasoned with. They’re also stupid, because remember the whole attacking AOC thing that just elevated her profile and message?

it’s gonna be our year

Seattle Sounders fans. Respect.

what’s funny is that if pro-cuomo centrist democrats were less myopic they might see that mamdani was running the kind of campaign that could help rebuild the party brand — accessible with an outsider persona and a focus on “kitchen table” issues.

Cuomo spent the whole campaign trashing the Democratic Party while Mamdani never shied away from being a Democrat. For both centrists and leftists it's an important lesson: if you want to win a party primary you should outwardly like the party.

Lots of work left for sports on Bluesky, but to assuage some fears about its future: we're on pace for another record-breaking month in June. There have been more sports-related posts than ever before, and engagement rate has tripled(!!). We're fully committed to the community here.

Reminder that part of why we’re voting today is that because the current status quo means families often have their lives upended in this city. A family at my wife’s school has had that happen to them and are in desperate need of help. If you can give, thank you. givebutter.com/brooklynneed

the most ringing endorsement for Zohran Mamdani yet get out and vote or risk Trump's rich supporters and now his girlfriend having their pick run our city

On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park. New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.

At this point Cuomo continuing to drive everywhere is a dog whistle (horn?) slash pseudo virtue signal to the predominately center right car culture of the city

Players of all ages are told to “win duels!” and “win the second balls!” But what do those things actually mean? And do they help MLS teams win games? @jamonm.bsky.social found a defensive statistic that really matters in MLS. Read ⤵️ www.backheeled.com/winning-duel...

there’s a lot projected on today in NYC but it’s really hard not to see shit like this and realize that if Zohran can’t win today, the Dem party and its way of thinking/communicating is just going to continue to play the same game that’s sliding the country into ruin.

psst NYC… vote this guy tomorrow

Me watching all the people discover Mamdani is an Arsenal fan the day before the election

Every time I post this picture, he goes up five more points in the polls.

Incredible how Cuomo is absolutely DWARFING everyone else in money and spend and yet it’s still close enough that they’re pulling these stops out. They’re scared.

Bomani called it. Don’t play with calf shit man

lmao I absolutely love the energy of FIFA handing out participation plaques that look exactly like the ones high school soccer orgs give to schools that make the state tournaments

Man, @sidlowe.bsky.social wrote the HELL out of this. What a story. www.theguardian.com/football/202...

What’s really crazy/funny about this trade: the Nets flipped the Suns ‘27 & rights to ‘29 firsts in the deal to get back their ‘25 and ‘26 firsts. So not only do the rockets have KD, they have the Suns picks they used to get KD!

America's sport of the future since 1950
