This Tiger game is giving big 2006 World Series vibes. This defensive performance has been terrible.

Donald Trump’s crowd resembled an Oakland Athletics game last season: almost empty.

Step 1: eliminate the portions of the federal government that aids people. Step 2: tell Americans they’ve cut spending and then give the donor class a massive tax cut. Step 3: lose the next election, blame liberals for the consequences of conservative think tank ideas.

The USL’s plan to implement promotion/relegation could change the U.S. soccer landscape forever. But plenty of questions remain as to if - and how - that goal will be achieved. www.espn.com/soccer/story...

I hate that I had to visit the Bird Hellscape for these memes. We need to up our game here.

Make that Kerry Carpenter with the save for Tigers.

This doesn’t seem like a close game.

Whether you've got a modest balcony, a pocket-size patio or a tiny backyard, small outdoor spaces offer big potential.

I love this idea and hope that other club follow suit.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🦁⚽️🏆 Controversy Ends Villa’s UCL Hopes Aston Villa were denied a key goal in a 2-0 loss at Man Utd after a foul was controversially called before Rogers scored. With Newcastle losing, a draw would’ve secured UCL football. Goals from Amad and Eriksen sealed it for United.

To be fair, this game was impacted by weather, but with an average attendance under 5k, something will need to change. I believe the 3-10 year future of the league is sharing venues with MLS/USL sides until fan bases are built that can fill a college or NFL venue. www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootb...

VAMOS CHICAS!!!!!

Sunderland win 2-1 on a stoppage time winner by a departing player. Do they stay up? My guess is they join in the train of one and done of recently promoted sides.

Wow. Sunderland goes up 2-1. Still several minutes of injury time remaining. #EFL

Whoever had Sunderland drawing level raise your hand. Now put it down, we know you are lying. #EFL

Once #USL adds a D1 and pro/rel, I hope they allow the regular season champion(s) to be promoted and then the playoffs for the final spot. Combines best of both points of view.

With about an hour to go, Sunderland has been outclassed. Fortunate that VAR bailed them out from going down 2. #EFL

Sunderland reminding us how not to play transition defense. #EFL

2 @detcityfc.com draws versus @bhmlegion.bsky.social this season could come back to haunt us in the table. Can’t concede late—and then to do it twice to drop 4 points.

I think it’s pretty obvious that the Clark/Reese rivalry is being used to fight other social fights. Any fan that uses racist language should receive a lifetime stadium ban from all domestic leagues of any sport in addition to charges. apple.news/AKzKS7tVsTvy...

Robert “Ed” Smylie, the NASA official who saved the Apollo 13 crew in 1970, has died at 95. He cobbled together an apparatus made of cardboard, plastic bags and duct tape after an explosion crippled the spacecraft as it sped toward the moon. nyti.ms/3Sbusb3

With some stadium expansion this is realistic for @hfdathletic.bsky.social .
