@LostMemeArchive This is what @TheTimDurham is spending his money on instead of dinner with his friends

@flightradar24 The flight paths looked strangely similar to the Wings over Dallas incident, thankfully not a similar outcome
English

Spotted by a user tonight: QR8174 and LH542 on approach to Bogota, LH542 just a few hundred feet above QR8174 before climbing for a go around. QR8174 landed safely on its 1st approach, while LH452 landed on its 2nd approach. flightradar24.com/multiview/2026…

@Phatudi_Modiba @ChicagoFire @Hyundai The red card was in the US Open Cup and the suspension does not apply to league games

@ChicagoFire @Hyundai I thought Dithejane got a red card mos.

@_Lehlo @ShottaZee Tbh Chicago has really only sent failed prospects to Lugano to get game time/a second chance. Sometimes they flop like Aliseda or they thrive like Koutsias. Mbokazi is much better than those two and he’s going to move to a top 5 league.
English

@ShottaZee Chicago is co-owned with Lugano in Switzerland, if no other big teams comes for him then they sending him there. They do that with their big prospects.

Deep down I wish he could stay for a while in Chicago cos he is on his way to being that city's first ever soccer superstar. He could end up being worshipped like how Leeds worships Lucas Radebe and get a stature and keys to the city like Sibusiso Zuma in Copenhagen.

Start your day (or enjoy your afternoon) with some Mbokazi defensive highlights 🔥 #cf97

🇧🇷 Sources: FC Cincinnati engage Neymar's camp on preliminary talks.
Very preliminary. Still internal discussions at club about whether to push for the global superstar... but Cincy is gauging Neymar's interest/requirements.

@nickyyknowsball I’m surprised someone didn’t slip in and steal your bed spot too

Seth Trimble gets the steal and Nearly puts in the buzzer beater for #6 North Carolina. It’s offline and we are going to OT in Greenville, SC

@AidanMott1 @JonRothstein They’ve lost in the first round the last four times they’ve been a five seed
English

That’s two losses in the last three seasons for Wisconsin as a 5 seed in the Round of 64.
This is the Dark Side of March.

SHOCKER IN PORTLAND: High Point stuns Wisconsin.

Unreal effort from @SchumacherMick today. You cannot underestimate the pressure. First on track. First oval qualifying ever. Second weekend in a car he doesn’t yet know. P4 on oval debut. Truly astonishing.
