genuinely cannot believe that the Diarrhea Forever meme turned out to be completely literal. this political era simply cannot be parodied or satirized. the stupidest thing you can think of can and will happen.

In death we should treat Lindsey Graham with the same respect he gave to millions of people in the Middle East whose death he fervently advocated for — and that of course is none at all.

I just had a 20 minute phone call with Lindsey Graham, the Senator from South Carolina and he said oooh help me it’s so hot here oh lord I’m on fire help help oh no I’m in hell because of my actions and my policies oh nooooo

always surprising to me how good mac allister is in the air for someone so small

@yiddogusdos It's the same exact situation as the Kane penalty against Mexico and the Tielemans penalty against Senegal. I don't think any of them are pens but it's so inconsistent to annul this one but not those two

i know the timeline is pretty set on that being the right call but it’s a pen for me spence as the right to take that step in front of him. bobb goes through him. smart step, you see it all the time

i’ve seen that been called a pen many times. like 100 million times.

I’ve seen some folks refer to NYC as Mamdanistan, so I’m here to remind you that the suffix for a city is -ibad.

Just got off the phone with Mitch McConnell, he is doing great!

@LucasNavarreteM was the plan rly to just hope nobody who reads this tweet could speak spanish

Argentinian artist Bizarrap immediately after the 3-2 win over Egypt: "They told me yesterday that I had to give him [Messi] the award..." Oh, so it was predetermined and decided a day ahead of the match? Good to know...

this is such a beautiful image, Pedro Porro the face of world peace

aaaaaaaaand THAT attitude from the "old guard" of US soccer is why the round of 16 is our ceiling "who's gonna pay for all this free soccer?" is about the dumbest response to all this that I've seen... not shocked it comes from Alexi Lalas

🚨 BREAKING There are reports claiming that Argentinian President Javier Milei bet the country's ENTIRE GDP on Argentina winning their Round 16 match against Egypt. Their GDP has now been doubled to $2.

TODOS LOS PAPELONES DEL TOTTENHAM PREPARARON AL CUTI ROMERO PARA ESTE MOMENTO ESTOY LEVITANDO, THOMAS FRANK Y ANGE POSTECOGLOU GANARON ESTE PARTIDO. WOWWWWWW

Had to make this cuz the sound works perfectly

In Germany, a talented 14-year-old earns his club money. In America, his parents pay the club $15,000 a year. That single inversion explains why "we will not" is the most accurate line ever written about US soccer. FIFA built a global system for this. Training compensation and solidarity payments send a cut of every transfer fee back to the clubs that developed the player, from age 12 onward. Develop one future pro and your academy gets paid for a decade. Barcelona's La Masia, Ajax, every Bundesliga academy runs on this logic. The kid is the asset. US Soccer refuses to enforce those rules. When Seattle's Crossfire Premier claimed its $60,000 share of DeAndre Yedlin's transfer to Tottenham, it got nothing. Claims on the Dempsey and Bradley transfers died partly because the federation couldn't even produce the youth training records. So American clubs earn zero dollars when a kid turns pro. They earn when a kid enrolls. Which makes the parent the customer, and the product is whatever keeps the parent writing checks: travel tournaments, hotel weekends, $500 showcase events, private training at $100 an hour. Elite pathways run $8,000 to $20,000 a year. A comparable academy spot in Italy costs about 120 euros. Follow the incentive one level deeper and it gets darker. A club dependent on fees can't cut its weakest paying players, so rosters optimize for retention over development. The scouting pool shrinks to families who can afford the cliff, which appears around age 11, exactly when development matters most. The country runs a talent filter sorted by household income instead of ability. Every four years someone proposes fixing this. The proposal always requires the people profiting from the $15,000 model to vote themselves out of business. They will not.

el futbol es lo mas grande que hay en el mundo, todo se empareja. podes ser un tirano, ser trillonario, presidente de una potencia, creerte el dueño del mundo, pero jugas mal y se te cagan de risa romelu lukaku y thomas meunier enfrente de todo el mundo y te hacen ser un ridiculo

Did Portugal lose because they played Ronaldo out of position?
