From my family to yours, happy final day of the 2025 MLS Primary Transfer Window. I hope this season brings you joy, peace, GAM and a hefty sell-on percentage.

Me, 10 years old: Soccer is fun! I like the World Cup. Me, mid-30s: My god Des Moines nearly pulled it off in the second round of the Open Cup.

It's not a bad idea to go to the local Walmart or big box retailer and buy lots of consumables now. From toothpaste to soap, anything you can find storage space for, buy before they have to replenish inventory. Even if it's made in the USA , they will jack up the price and blame it on tariffs.

Children’s birthday parties should have: 1. Fewer presents for kids who are not celebrating their birthday. 2. More food for parents.

On nights like these I like to remember that New York Red Bulls traded MLS assist leader Sacha Kljestan and $150,000 for Tommy Redding and Carlos Rivas

Scoring the winning goal against a favored opponent and then immediately celebrating with Thierry Henry on a TV set while yelling "YOU'RE MY IDOL" at him is absolutely legendary shit and anybody who hates on it in any way is wrong.

Almost exactly 2 years Tim Ream said “If someone isn't going to take my spot, then I'm going to keep performing... Someone's going to have to physically take it from me” about his USMNT career And sure enough, nobody's done so. In fact he's bailed out much younger teammates a few times today

Folks paid $200+ to see this in-person

I've come around to the old timer view that the USMNT used to perform better with less talented players because it was their main career aim, it was the most important games to them. National team duty is a distraction from their real careers for these dudes, idc what they tell media.

Now is as good a time as any to remind everyone that the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City (@NLBMuseumKC) exists to tell a deeply important American story -- one that is ultimately about triumph. Our history, good and bad, is all we have. Learning it is our duty.

whipping the most terminally online soccer fans in existence into a fever pitched frenzy when they haven't even gotten around to kind of sort of maybe figuring out if that first division waiver is even possible is an amazing idea.

relatedly, why is the entire political press completely uninterested in the verifiable fact that JD Vance has close relationships with online nazis?

When you save money on groceries you still buy groceries. DOGE is not saving money, it is gutting the capabilities of government to do anything and will use that incapacity to argue for further cuts.

The office for tonight’s Orlando City preseason Tropic Thunder matchup.Seemed like a lot of Messi fans outside. Possibly even a few Inter Miami fans. I saw a group of Orlando fans tailgating near where I parked. Glad I arrived early. Traffic was bad coming over.
