There is no team-town connection in Canada quite like Les Canadiens and Montreal, especially during the playoffs. "Ça Sent La Coupe." It's a favourite expression for fans come playoff time and @MichaelFarber3 explains how there's something in the air: tsn.ca/nhl/video/2026…



We inherited an agreement where FIFA is providing $0 for transportation to the World Cup. And while NJ TRANSIT is stuck with a $48 million bill to safely get fans to and from games, FIFA is making $11 billion. I’m not going to stick New Jersey commuters with that tab for years to come. FIFA should pay for the rides. But if they don’t – I’m not going to let New Jersey get taken for one.


BREAKING NJ Transit confirm @TheAthleticFC report of $150 round-trip rail tickets to World Cup at MetLife Stadium. Alternative bus service is $80 (!) per passenger. Locals in area to be asked to work from home if possible to help flow of stations. nytimes.com/athletic/72054…




This is so hard to defend with all my non soccer friends….hell with anyone. 🤡Like GTFO
