@Jad02632 @mjeichinger For other sports? To refute the ignorant claim you made? You sure you want to make that bet?

@Helgy214 @mjeichinger Quote the rule book where it mentions intent. Show me the quote where it says the word intent. I’ll cashapp you 10 dollars if you do.

“Why hasn’t soccer taken off more in America?” As a casual fan, I present to you exhibit A. Balogun has been intentionally held, kicked, fouled harder than this the entire game. Then this no intent, accidental contact foul draws red. Stupid sport can’t get out of its own way.
USMNT Only@usmntonly
Another look at the red card on USMNT striker Folarin Balogun.
English
@Jad02632 @mjeichinger Intent is literally mentioned in the rules bud. Keep moving the goalposts though. You aren’t even in the same stadium anymore. It’s hilarious.
English
@Helgy214 @mjeichinger Flagrant 2s are ruled for excessiveness and recklessness. It’s absolutely 100% not always about intent. They’ve dished out flagrant 2s before even if it was by accident if it was reckless enough.
English
@terencebabila @_whohardasme @jonmorosi “The rules are clear” might be the most ridiculous statement ever spoken with such confidence. Please back up that statement. Then go explain it to the thousands of unbiased soccer analysts from other countries who are saying the exact opposite. Sure is clear 😂🤡
English
@_whohardasme @jonmorosi Trust me, I said the same thing about the Senegal game. But the rules are clear. I love Balogun too and we definitely need him in the next game.
English
Question for the soccer officials among you:
Was that a warranted red card?
English
@Jad02632 @mjeichinger Intent actually does play into the level of fragrant fouls and ejections, but please go ahead and continue to argue against yourself.
English
@mjeichinger Everyone needs to stop saying “accidental” like that changes anything. It sucks really bad for sure but when does “it was an accident” change any call in any league of any sport ever? Are we gonna not call flagrant fouls in the NBA if they were by accident?
English
@KevinTrist34396 @Softykjr Cleats up? Stfu. This wasn’t a challenge or a sliding tackle. It was a normal step from an off balance player that landed in the wrong spot. The fact that is treated the exact same t same as a reckless challenge is ridiculous, and you know it.
English
The fact that Balogun would be out for Belgium because of this is insane. In what world should anybody put up with this?
I'll be honest: I'm having a hell of a time enjoying all of this, but this is exactly why there are tremendous amounts of people that think this sport is bullshit
FOX Sports@FOXSports
Folarin Balogun is shown a red card and the US is down to 10 players.

@evankoch @brianhgibson @BenjaminSolak He didn’t say “he thought “ at all though did he bud? He made a statement that Hall IS an 11-12M player. He is rightfully getting clowned for that idiotic statement, and you’re here rewriting it like he was just speculating. Words and sentence structure mean something. 😂
English
@brianhgibson @BenjaminSolak I just think if you take a step back you'll see it's kind of funny that everyone is shredding Solak for saying that he thought Hall might get 11m/12m but instead he signed for 14m. Like.... it's not terribly far off. And we all have a hard time factoring in cap inflation.
English
Though Hall would be a $11/12M player. Really nice payday for him as an internal extension
Adam Schefter@AdamSchefter
Edge Derick Hall and the Seahawks reached agreement today on a three-year, $42 million extension that could be worth up to $46.5 million and includes $21 million guaranteed, per his agents Chad Berger and Ezra J Thompson. Hall is now under contract to Seattle the 2029 season. Hall had two sacks and a forced fumble during the Seahawks' Super Bowl LX win over the Patriots.
English
@DougKyed @PBSportstalks He actually asked “where are here friends”? Imagine doing what you do and completely missing the point.
BTW Doug - Where have you been for the last 38 days?

I know this bottom feeder only wants attention, but this is bullshit.
Outside of the people we’re closest to in the world, no one showed my family and me more kindness after I was laid off by PFF, and after Hallie was diagnosed with cancer and passed away, than Dianna.

@Mo12thMan Imagine the idea that you might not find all pros when you are picking last in every round. The NFL draft would be so much better if we didn’t have this slop showing up on our timeline every year.
English
The #Seahawks draft after their last Super Bowl win aged… badly. There’s a real chance we’re about to see a repeat this year. Here is a look back at the 2014 Seahawks picks
Pick 45: Paul Richardson, WR,
Pick 64: Justin Britt, OT,
Pick 108: Cassius Marsh, DE
Pick 122: Kevin Norwood, WR
Pick 132: Kevin Pierre-Louis, LB
Pick 172: Jimmy Staten, DT
Pick 199: Garrett Scott, OT
Pick 208: Eric Pinkins, CB/S
Pick 227: Kiero Small, FB

@THEmajorhawk “My board” is the funniest shit people say on twitter now. Your “board” is immediately a joke if you have Coleman ahead of Price.
English
Price was 70th on my board.
This on top of HB's being less valuable, I would have rather had:
Kayden McDonald
Jermod McCoy
Colton Hood
TJ Parker
R Mason Thomas
Brandon Cisse
Avieon Terrell
D'Angelo Ponds
Anthony Hill Jr
Zion Young
Keith Abney II
Emmett Johnson
Jonah Coleman

@markkreutzer42 @Cryptic83036924 @TFG_Football Awwww. Bro blocked me after telling me to get a hobby, right after claiming I don’t tweet enough. 😂😂😂 The jokes write themselves.
English
@markkreutzer42 @Cryptic83036924 @TFG_Football Haha. Cope harder bud. Keep that amateur scouting reporting rocking tho. Top notch h!
English
@markkreutzer42 @Cryptic83036924 @TFG_Football It might be because of how arrogantly wrong you were. It’s one thing to have an opinion. It’s another thing entirely to voice that opinion in the way that you did. I think you know this.
English
@Cryptic83036924 @TFG_Football Idk why three Seahawks fans found this year-old tweet and decided to pounce on it in the span of a few minutes, especially when I was far from the only one voicing this take, but I’ll just copy-paste my reply to the other guy
Mark Kreutzer@markkreutzer42
@IsmaelRubi95027 @TFG_Football I missed on Emmanwori, he’s fucking awesome and reevaluating him is something I’m doing as part of my self-scouting this year!! I’m never rooting against any player I scout (unless they’re truly heinous in their personal lives) even if I grade them harshly, and I’m glad he’s good
English
@AaronLevine_ Anyone who thinks playing every other game and going 0-9 is a slump doesn’t know a fricking thing about baseball. It’s honestly hilarious reading these comments. At least Smith will be rewarded with “wild pitch” calls when an average catcher wouldn’t let that ball past them.
English
I don't care how bad he was slumping, you'd never take Aaron Judge out of the lineup for this game.
So I don't understand Cal Raleigh not being in this lineup at all.

English
@TheJJ1717 @HuskiesFan19 @Mr_McQuacks @Kylemedian @hawkmania4 @DJack2009 The tweet he is replying to is literally IN THE TWEET. Show me the racism. Hilarious that you can’t see that he’s claiming that the ONLY reason to think same would be better is racism, even with the actual reasons listed IN THE TWEET.
English
@HuskiesFan19 @Mr_McQuacks @Kylemedian @hawkmania4 @DJack2009 No, you’re the moron here. He was saying people were being racist against Geno, nowhere in his tweet does it say he doesn’t agree Sam is better, nowhere.

@DeanBlandino @BuffMafia @amramsfan1 @REFLOG18 This was a MASSIVE no call and you and the broadcast team brushed over it like it was nothing. How do you consider this to be a decent product (you providing analysis) when this happens every game. Why is there zero follow up or public accountability taken for this obv miss??
English
@BuffMafia @amramsfan1 @REFLOG18 I can’t listen to you guys argue anymore. I feel responsible. It is catchable. What I was trying to say (not very well) is that if the receiver is already out of bounds before the contact it can’t be pass interference. He was in bounds so it’s a foul.
English
Seahawks center Sundell with the cleanest pull on a G run I’ve seen in awhile. Just like it’s drawn up. Didn’t break stride once and blocked the alley defender to guide Walker into the end-zone. Good stuff
