@AdamCrafton_ @TheAthleticFC America!

NEW: MBTA confirm $80 return ticket Boston to Gillette Stadium during World Cup, after @TheAthleticFC first reported it would be over $75. Quadruple the usual price for NFL games. No concessions for kids, over-60s or passengers with accessibility needs nytimes.com/athletic/71501…

@jccaron71 @AlexiLalas They don’t have four other pro sports leagues that command the best athletes and the greatest attention.

@AlexiLalas What bothers me about USSF, is that Columbia, and several other countries have eclipsed the United States several times. And despite improvements, we are barely able to overcome TnT, Jamaica, Haiti, or Panama since '94.

Objectively, American soccer, '94 vs '26, is night and day. We love to kick ourselves for what we aren't or haven't done. But hopefully we use this summer to celebrate how far we've come in a relatively short period of time, on and off the field. It's unprecedented. Onward.

@Stevinho21 @AlexiLalas Morocco and Croatia do not have four professional sports leagues that are the best in the world that their soccer leagues would have to compete against for a fan base. Pro soccer in the USA will never be any higher on the popularity scale than where it sits now: #5 among 5.

@AlexiLalas Morocco has grown more in less time and they haven’t had a World Cup. Croatia didn’t even exist in ‘94. I get wanting to celebrate though, we just need to be held accountable too. Which never happens to the Fed

@AlexiLalas The on-the-field quality of US Soccer took off in 2002 when Bruce and Landon took the team to the quarterfinals after defeating mighty Portugal in group play. That was the watershed. But Sunil derailed Bruce’s progress with his longing for Klinsmann who played hard to get.

@SeizeTheNae Marv, without question. A NYer, I listened to his call of the Knicks from 1968 to 73 in my car radio in Washington, DC. I went to the highest point of the city, near American University, for the best reception. PS: what is Kevin “ Hollerin’ Harlan doing on any list?

Who’s the greatest play-by-play voice of all time? A. Vin Scully B. Al Michaels C. Mike Breen D. Keith Jackson E. Chick Hearn F. Marv Albert G. Kevin Harlan H. Pat Summerall

@honeymoon250 Wrong

Correct me if I’m wrong

@TheSports_Shift The Devil Rays weren’t founded until 1998.

Best 80s MLB logo?

@Amelia558rs Get tickets for the next Orioles game

@RestrictedDaily Neon Deion

If you get this right, you’ve earned your spot at the table today. Final Jeopardy — Sports Stars

@oelma__ What’s gotten out of hand is the notion that unless you automatically overtip (more than 20%) you’re some kind of louse.

Is it just me or has TIPPING culture got completely out of hand..

@GaryPetersonUSA Yeah, the sunglasses indoors in front of an altar. A committed Christian.

Nothing makes our President and First Lady happier than spending Easter with our Lord.

@Suzierizzo1 All team ticketing operations have the capacity to issue hard tickets. The team is just being lazy; he should contact the local consumer protection office.

This 81 year old man is a lifelong Dodgers fan & has been a season pass holder for over 50 years & was just told that he would no longer be allowed to get printed tickets only digital from now on & he’s barely able to navigate a computer & phone.Dodgers aren’t replying to anyone.

@ronsterd89 Dreams, especially the modern version with Derek Trucks on lead guitar. YouTube it. It won’t be the final time you’ll view it. Q

Give us a song by this great group

@golz_tv @AlexiLalas puts form ahead of Substance. That’s the issue.

Former NFL star Robert Griffin III asked USMNT legend Alexi Lalas why fans consider him as the “villain” of American soccer 👀 “I don’t care if you like me or don't like me. I just don't want you to change the channel,” Lalas said on Outta Pocket with RGIII. “It's not that I'm playing a role, but I am in the entertainment business. And as you know, how you say something is as important as what you say.” “But I'm incredibly comfortable in the things that I say, and I recognize that people are going to agree and people are going to disagree.” “You know, it's interesting because as soccer has grown in the United States, one of the things that also has grown is media, and in order to be taken seriously, in order to have credibility, it has to be viewed as in the same light as other sports.” “And part of other sports is being honest, and part about other sports, absolutely, is at times being critical, not being critical just to be critical, not being critical just to get clicks, or anything like that.” “But if and when you see something that you believe, you have to have the honesty and you have to have the balls to say that.” “It’s easier as you get further and further from playing, because you don't have that connection necessarily with the players on the field.” “But look, I have had the players’ wives, girlfriends, parents, grandparents, everybody at some point come up to me and they need to vent, because I have said something, usually something I've forgotten along the way because I say a lot of things, and they tell me either what a horrible person that I am, but usually when it's face to face, it's much more about how much they disagree and how much I was wrong.” “And that's okay, that's what I enjoy about the sport. I enjoy that about life. I hang out with people that I disagree with vehemently disagree with. It makes it more interesting.” “When I'm watching television, I want to see things that are interesting and entertaining, not necessarily that I agree with, but that are interesting and entertaining.” “And so I don't apologize for it. And I think it's important for this sport to have it. I make mistakes along the way, absolutely like anybody else. I'm still learning. I'm still growing like everybody else.” “But I love what I do. They can pry it from my cold, dead red-headed hands, and all the young ones are coming as we as we know, but it's a wonderful, wonderful job.” “And now, 25 years on since I've kicked the ball, I'm still involved in the sport, and so I take pride in that.”

@simonateba Why on Easter Sunday?

BREAKING — Be brutally honest: Do you support the US president using profane language to threaten Iran with hell, as Pres. Trump just did, telling Iran to open the “Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastard, or you’ll be living in hell”? and is it good to bomb power plants? Yes or no?

@LangmanVince Well, there was no secretary of defense until after WW2, so there’s that.

Pete Hegseth will now go down as the best Secretary of Defense since WWII, and possibly ever!

@MacroBombastic @gregkellyusa He has been pretending that he is an exceptional businessman and he has been an abysmal failure. - Trump Casino (how do you lose money running a casino?) - Trump University

@gregkellyusa Bro, Trump's language may be rough but at least he's not pretending to be something he's not like most politicians.

Everyone so “Horrified”at President TRUMP and his language. GIVE ME A BREAK. This is the way people TALK. Get Over it. It’s barely lunch Time and I’ve heard the F word on the streets of NYC a dozen times. TRUMP is Keeping it Real—-WE ARE GOING TO WIN!

@gregkellyusa Swearing is for people too lazy or stupid to come up with better words.

@sgevans Used to be RFK, now it’s a choice along the mediocre.

Best stadium in MLS? #mls360

@LarrySande3x @nobleisawinner There is minimum wage for them. It’s simply a lower level than what service employees receive.

@nobleisawinner I agree, servers need tips. There is no minimum wage for them.

What is your first thought here
