We gotta get you some bartending experience, my sweet man.

We both know this. But, I’m not one to bully this bartender until he actually starts looking for the match.

I went home to watch. 🫑

Anyone know of a Denver bar that has ESPN+? Looks like the Bulldog can’t play the Indy Eleven match.

They say MLS can’t compete with Europe’s elite but Miami has Inter’s name, Barcelona’s players, Real Madrid’s politics, PSG’s history and Man United’s dude in all those ads

I am not allowed enough free time. I wasn’t in school, I wasn’t when I was an industry worker, I am not now with a corp job.

I use the late evening to make up for that time. I refuse to let the majority of my sentient moments be controlled by toil. It isn’t healthy but my mind gets some free time.

More cowardice from USL match broadcasters.

Street art that says "save your own damn self."

Every time I go for a long run up Western Ave. I come across this street art outside Dark Matter Coffee and I fucking hate it. It's terrible energy anytime, but especially in the year of our Lord 2026.

USMNT is full of dudes that have a combination of intense media training and an utter lack of either empathy or even curiosity which renders them both boring and sterile when it comes to any sort of important issue facing the country.

This all could be avoided if we didn’t continue to hire non-soccer people as team and league execs.

If any of them were half a good as they thought they were they wouldn’t be working in MLS or USL.

I wish every day I never got involved in anything but the tailgates. Was once on the board of Section 8 Chicago and dealing with meetings I can say most of the FO and League folks are exactly who galvanized my hatred of MLS.

USL is just ever so slightly better (on average), but only just.

Conor Gallagher could have stayed at Palace and been a club legend. The offer was there.

Coming off the bench for a β€œBig 6” club seems fun, though.

Massive US Soccer fan here. Yes. Absolutely. I’ve already disinvested WC26 bullshit after the Peace Prize. Ban the US, ban Israel, maintain the ban on Russia or any sovereign power waging war.

You don’t get to have the luxury of sport while murdering civilians.

Move the World Cup to another country and don’t let the US participate. Take away the Olympics right now, and don’t let the US participate. US athletes should not be allowed to compete under their national flag. US teams in international competitions should have their license to compete revoked.

The W League is so damn fun. Did a ton of away days for Indy and loved every second. Get behind your athletes and enjoy it!

No one is properly β€œfamous” to the general populace anymore, instead folks are REALLY famous to a specific niece.

It rules. More opportunity for experimental artists to make a living. I replaced most of my streaming services with patreon subscriptions and as many live shows as I can make.

There need to be a new Scouting equivalent that teaches survival skills alongside ethics, humility alongside fostering community, the secret to the best foil pack alongside morality, responsibility and strength.

I don’t like getting into generational beef, but these little neocons need tough love.

That means one of us lives in a completely different reality. It could be me. Maybe I’m missing something that these people see. As much as I try to, in good faith, follow their logic or dialogue or even understand what the individual voter thinks they’re GAINING from this I’m left completely empty.

They can’t even develop a coherent lie. I spend a lot of time telling myself β€œyou aren’t special, you aren’t smarter than the average American, your life experience is on par with most people” and then you look at their voting block either eating it up or changing their tune IMMEDIATELY.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the Jurassic Park memes as much as the next guy, but we should be doing everything we can to bring raptors back.

Can you imagine the potential of dropping four adolescent raptors inside Elon Musk’s home?

I wonder if there’s a market for me to stream AGOT modded Crusader Kings 3 using new characters with backstories that tie into the novels. And, if there is, if that niche isn’t already filled. I know far too much about these dang books.

Anything less than breaking rocks for the rest of their lives is too generous for any DHS/ICE staff member.
