Looks like a hydrogen bomb test right off the coast. These things are usually top secret but for some reason I knew it would happen at 7:03am.

In the dating app+IG era, very few couples in major U.S. cities (excluding couples who met in college) are ones where the girl is 2+ points more attractive than the guy. Vast majority, guys are more attractive than the girl. Olivia Rodrigo's new BF is an example of this.

There was much discussion before the World Cup about how high temperatures would affect team performance and create an uneven playing field. And then the team that played all matches indoors or in very favorable conditions cruised to the title. Wet bulb temperatures below:

@Zonal_Marking G1 vs Cabo Verde in Atlanta (AC) G2 vs Saudi Arabia in Atlanta (AC) G3 vs Uruguay in Guadalajara (23°C) R32 vs Austria in LA (25°C) R16 vs Portugal in Dallas (AC) QF vs Belgium in LA (27°C) <- only hot one SF vs France in Dallas (AC)

Why? - North American setting - Continued growth of soccer - Growth of Hispanic population - Mature sports betting market - Out-of-home and streaming fully integrated into TV viewership - Overall population growth

@AlexMSilverman Americans can see and respect the effort that went into putting on the World Cup. The spectacle is part of it.

We’ve evolved from talking about ends to talking about means. The objective is to play like Spain.
GOLZ@golz_tv

Former USMNT coach Bruce Arena explains why the U.S. can’t just take Spain’s successful blueprint and duplicate it here. He was speaking on Coaches’ Corner with Rob Stone, Bob Bradley, and Gregg Berhalter 🗣️ “We're different, geographically and the size of our country,” Arena began. “Their professional league is outstanding. They have a method of how they play. “But, you know, we've talked about this for years. The U.S. is different. Geographically, our country's 2,600 miles wide. We have three different time zones. We have different climates. We have different cultures. “As a country to have a style of play, like you might say Spain has, I think is very difficult for us to duplicate. “If you don't mind me saying this, in 1999, Sunil Gulati and I were in Barcelona for the Champions League final, Bayern Munich and Manchester United. “And I met with [Gerard] Houllier, and we discussed the France plan, and he explained to me how France operates. “They have eight regions, and then centrally they get together at different points, and, you know, they keep it pretty consistent. “And he was writing this down on a napkin with a Sharpie for me, showing me this. And then I said to him, ‘Do you know the United States, the size of it?’ “And, you know, again, I said we're this wide, 2,500 miles, three different time zones, different climates, different cultures. “He took the napkin, he rolled it up, and he threw it at me, and he said, ‘You’ve got a problem.’ “And, you know, to this day, I think it's always going to be difficult for us as a country to have a style of play, even though I think Bob and Gregg would agree that we've had a certain DNA with our national teams. “But it's difficult to try to duplicate what Spain does or France does. You know, we're just different, and we're going to have to find a way to accomplish being better at the international level. “And that can be done. But we're not going to do it using the formula that Spain has or France has or other countries. We have to establish our own. “And I think it starts with the league as well, that we have more domestic players playing in our league, our national team coaches have more options. So, you know, that's my opinion.”

#10)  2 - The number of players that were identifiable by name and country to a majority of U.S. sports fans *prior* to the World Cup according to our own Fox research.  Unsurprisingly those players were Lionel Messi and Christiano Ronaldo.

It’s sort of insane how a majority of women don’t understand that by being hot and skinny they can eliminate 97% of the problems in their lives Life as an attractive, thin woman is life on easy mode And in the age of Ozempic & plastic surgery, being hot has never been easier

Goals are exciting because they are rare. If they were common, the thrill of just seeing someone kick a ball into the back of a net over and over would lose its charm pretty quickly. This naive perspective is common to casual observers of any sport they don't have enough experience with to fully appreciate. Take an international visitor to an NFL game, and they will say that, while they like seeing big plays and touchdowns, most plays are just 22 guys haphazardly running into each other. You have to acquire a base level of understanding about a sport in order to appreciate it, and the deeper your understanding, the greater your potential to appreciate it -- even in the mundane plays that don't draw obvious attention.

I was so excited for yesterday's World Cup final - which left me flat. 1 goal in 120 minutes. Spain won with suffocating defense that rendered the GOAT just another player. More stars in the stands than on the pitch. Soccer turned back into what it mostly always has been - boring
