At Barca-Girona match with Cesar and Jose Richard from Colombia. Jose Richard is blind and deaf, but Cesar helps him follow matches with a wooden board that serves as the pitch, and a sign language system they devised themselves. Incredible to watch.

Whoa, whoa, whoa did people know that the U.S. calls it “soccer” and other places call it “football”?? This is an astounding revelation. Surely it’s the first recorded instance of different words being used for one thing. Not sure how humanity can overcome this.

@EvanEParker Best of luck, Evan. Thanks for all you did!

I'm off to try and catch lightning in a bottle twice, to try and build a business that makes me as proud, and touches as many people, as The Athletic. Tall task, but with all I've learned these 4 years,... I'm ready. 🙏

Today I sign out of @TheAthletic Slack for the last time. It's hard to put into words what these 4 years have meant to me, but I am so proud of what we built and so thankful for getting to play a part.

@itsmeglinehan Should've gotten Billy Eichner for this.

“Mal Swanson is going to score roughly ten million goals in this kit and look baller as hell doing it.” @itsmeglinehan, @thrace & @BrooksDT review the 2023 #NWSL kits.

My favorite shot of the new Union kit from the Adidas photoshoot for it.

@quixem @FelipeCar @MLSist I was surprised by that too. No one had a strong feeling on it one way or the other, it seemed.

@FelipeCar @MLSist @BrooksDT the Sounders Bruce Lee kit wasn't mentioned here??
