What a 3 by Haliburton! #NBAFinals

Perfect corner from Alexis Vega to Cesar Montes for the goal!

Feeling overwhelming grief for my queer community here in Tennessee. If our trans siblings are not free, then none of us are free. We won’t stop fighting for you.

Thought that was a corner but nope Jimenez just messed up

Monterrey earn a point against Inter!

“This Gold Cup is Canada’s to lose” did Alexi Lalas forget about Mexico?!

Ulsan vs Mamelodi Sundowns: football hipsters (me) time to shine

In what was a home game for Guatemala in Los Angeles, they beat Jamaica 1-0!

Six months after being in a car accident, Michail Antonio set to come on! #GoldCup

Pacers hurting themselves with these turnovers

To think the time I crossed paths with Justin Rasmussen inside the stadium at the New Mexico United game this season will be my last memory of his as an Oakland Root. In our brief exchange, he seemed like a chill guy. Wishing him the best. #KnowYourRoots #USL #OaklandRoots

Suriname were down 2-0 to Costa Rica but are up 3-2! If they can bring this level of tenacity to the next round of qualifiers, they could join the list of debutants at the 2026 World Cup

Keylor Navas putting the old in Newell’s Old Boys

Attendance at PayPal Park for this #USMNT game is 12K, which at a minimum is a regular occurrence this season under Bruce Arena’s resurgent San Jose Earthquakes

Imagine being down 6-0 and your opponents sub out Kingsley Coman for Serge Gnabry

Mexico just barely survive a last ditch effort from Dominican Republic to win 3-2

Both goalkeepers had to make big saves to keep it 0-0. Inter Miami and Al Ahly’s stalemate means they have a mountain to climb with Palmeiras and Porto remaining. #FIFACWC

Trezeguet has his penalty saved by Ustari, Inter Miami staying level in the CWC opener

This last week is a real demonstration of how capacious, yet flattened the word "violent" is in our political discourse. Political assassinations are obviously, clearly violent. But the same word has been used all week to describe protestors damaging objects--not people, objects.

We don’t do kings here. In case you forgot, School House Rock can serve as your reminder.

The way San Jose Earthquakes earned a point in Providence Park, I don’t care that they couldn’t break the curse. The fact that they got anything from this game is appreciated and indicative of Bruce Arena’s group having that extra gear to grind out results.

First lead in the second half thanks to an SGA heater #NBAFinals

Big early 3 by Haliburton!

More players from the #Survivor 20s seasons on #TheTraitorsUS than #Survivor50

Friday the 13th hits a little too real this year

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

All of our Tectonic Takes podcasts hosts present (Abel, Abram, Devon, Favian, Ivan, and Saz) and past have strong cultural ties outside of the United States, coming from families of immigrants. We stand in solidarity with the diverse multicultural community and what they stand for.

Kevin de Bruyne to Napoli will be a great fit. He’s been fun to watch since his Wolfsburg days but I couldn’t root for him too much when he went to Manchester City 😂

Obi Toppin slam!

Jalen Williams clutch 3

Germaine Pratt will be a solid linebacker for the Raiders especially for the modest price. #RaiderNation

Spain’s U21 team at the Euros looks pretty formidable. Lots of La Liga minutes under some of these players’ belts already.

Checking the score and yikes #USMNT

Arnautovic missed a penalty against San Marino? Dude just tap it forward.

So the US U-17s crushed Japan, 3-0. The US U-18s France, Argentina, Australia, and Portugal (via PK shootout) to win the Friendship Cup. The US U-19s drew Ukraine (3rd in the 2024 u19 Euros) The US U-20s beat Colombia, 1-0. Vast majority of these players across all four teams come from MLS.

A 97th minute penalty will keep Palestine from moving on in World Cup qualifying but they did a great job this cycle

Episode 140 sees us enjoy the positives of the 8 match unbeaten streak and beating LA Galaxy, less so the frustrating St. Louis game albeit with a rotations. Also our thoughts on the Gold Cup and Club World Cup can be found in the last 20 minutes of this episode. #VamosSJ youtu.be/Z1gtckv68IM?...

4-5 is a respectable record for the Valkyries this deep into year 1

Italy getting carved up defensively too easily
