@TimmyB1957 @matt75940176 @nsemeke33 Those corner seats are motorized and built to be retractable for this exact reason. In the pic, the field is too narrow but they can easily yoink the seats back Btw an easy way to judge field width is to know that the penalty box is 44yds wide and look at the 10yd corner marks

@Ajas95 @matt75940176 @nsemeke33 Ah, I see now. To be honest, I am surprised that Atlanta made the cut. As much as I love the Benz, the corner seats angle in (which is great for fans as it aims you more towards the center) and I thought it might have been too restrictive. Apparently not!

@matt75940176 @nsemeke33 @TimmyB1957 My point is simply — the stadium needs to be built with plans for a full width field. Maybe those front rows are removable, probably they aren't For a friendly, they can do whatever the sides agree to, but World Cup is stricter

@matt75940176 @nsemeke33 @TimmyB1957 This picture highlights the real problem — width. Football fields are 53.3 yards wide, but FIFA mandates 74 yards minimum for World Cup The easy way to tell is look at the distance from the edge of the box to the sideline— it needs to be 15 yards minimum

@nsemeke33 @TimmyB1957 It can be done

I saw a tweet that the US can host all the World Cup matches in different stadiums without using the same stadium twice. How many stadiums do they have in total to be able to pull that off?

@GirkinGirkin "Comrade General, the tanks you requested have finally arrived!" "Perfect, perfect... And the fuel?"

@Donramonfc1 Denver wasn't chosen due to the pending sale of the Broncos in 2022. It's not that complicated

Fui dar uma pesquisada em como foram escolhidas as cidades sede dessa Copa do Mundo, e achei curiosa a história do estádio de Denver, ele foi um dos melhores estádios avaliados pela FIFA das cidades candidatas, mas ele ficou de fora pq o aeroporto mais próximo dele fica a quase 50 quilômetros de distância.

@dwardzich22 Quite a nice view of the pitch, from the nose-bleeds

Może i nie ma dachu, ale stadion w Kansas City wygrywa ranking na najbardziej amerykański stadion tych mistrzostw 🤠

@NoRagretsCredo1 @Rheamund_ You said "those trees" like you were talking about the photo — but you're just complaining about some other trees I know the area you're talking about, I've walked my dog there many times. You're highlighting an enormous area, and there's probably 12 tents in the whole thing

@Ajas95 @Rheamund_ The region in red is what I’m referencing. The wooded area is literally right next to 15th.

“The city is a pile of garbage” 👎 “Just wait until a homeless vagrant stabs you” 💉🗑️ “Seattle is a shithole” 🚮 Either this is some extreme propaganda or a sick person running an agenda. Seattle has been nothing but ungodly beautiful. A rewarding trip for an outsider 🙏

@FootballVault1 College football would do well with relegation... Or re-conferencing "MSU, Vandy, Arkansas, you're out... Indiana, Miami, and Texas Tech, welcome to the SEC 🎉💰"

This is coming from the only sport that thinks ties are acceptable

@NoRagretsCredo1 @Rheamund_ That picture is taken from Kerry park — between 2nd and 3rd Ave... 15th Ave is a ways west and steeply downhill

@Rheamund_ I live close to where this photo is taken (Photo is from west Queen Anne, right next 15th Ave w.) There are massive encampments in those trees that have wreaked havoc to local businesses in that area.

@FOXSports Materazzi's son would've saved that

Messi picked out the top corner BEAUTIFULLY 🎯

@JSWC1995 Brits: "we need to sod Wembley an 11th time" Also Brits: "these American stadiums are dreadful!"

When will Americans learn that British people dont care about capacity and would take the ground on the left over the one on the right every day of the week and twice on Sundays?

@AlbertBreer If there's an "18th game" discussion to amend the CBA, there can certainly be a "grass fields requirement" rejoinder

The grass in these NFL stadiums looks spectacular.

@ivaivayoshi @Rheamund_ 3rd Ave is the road of zombies. If you wander up the hill at night and see a sign that says "2nd Ave", turn around, go back and enjoy the waterfront 😂

@Rheamund_ Just don’t venture too far from there, they’re hiding out the homeless somewhere close by

First day in Seattle and I’m already stunned by the city’s scenery and landscape. Downtown is gorgeous. Waters are sparkling. Pier is FULL of life. It’s everything I truly wanted.

@Rheamund_ For Last of Us Part 2 video game enjoyers, yes that is the aquarium and ferris wheel. In the background is Wolves HQ (stadium), and 400 yards behind him, Tommy is sniping from the walkway

@BBCSport Japan's manager used the break effectively, why didn't yours?

Virgil van Dijk says he's not a fan of the mandatory hydration breaks introduced at the World Cup 🤔

@seasidejoenews The 2025 Seahawks spent ~30% of their cap on dead money charges The 2024 Eagles spent ~25% The 2021 Rams spent ~20% Dead money seems seems like a bad thing, but it doesn't matter that much

The Seahawks could go the entire year without cutting a single key veteran player. Why? They're a reigning Super Bowl champion ranked 32nd in dead money ($500k) and $25m left in cap space. We've never seen a team on the top have this much cap flexibility before. 1/3⬇️

@Vfynn_ I assume Henry worked the broadcast booth for free, right?.... Or was he paid and the money came from somewhere?

🚨🗣️New: Thierry Henry reacts to the USA vs Paraguay stoppage for TV commercials: “I’ve spent my entire life in this beautiful game — as a player at the highest level, as a fan, and now as someone who analyses it every week — and what unfolded during that USA versus Paraguay match left me deeply frustrated. The fourth official standing there on the touchline, arm raised high, instructing the referee to hold the restart… not for any injury, not for tactical reasons, and not even primarily for player hydration in that scorching heat. No. It was because the broadcast team hadn’t finished airing all their commercials. That’s not football. That’s a television show pretending to be a World Cup match. The beautiful game is being strangled by greed. Players are out there in the heat, ready to restart, momentum building like a storm about to break — and we pause everything so the sponsors can cash in. It’s like stopping a symphony mid-crescendo because the advertisers want their jingle heard. Football didn’t conquer the world by turning into American sports with endless timeouts and ad breaks. We had rhythm, flow, emotion that flowed like a river. Now? It’s dammed up for dollars. This isn’t about hydration or player welfare anymore — it’s a slippery slope where the soul of the game is sold piece by piece. Fans deserve better. Players deserve better. The referee on that pitch looked like a puppet on strings controlled from some broadcast truck. Enough is enough. We need to protect what made this sport the greatest on Earth before it disappears completely.” The World Cup should be football’s cathedral. Instead, we’re turning it into a shopping mall with a pitch in the middle. And here’s the question nobody wants to answer: if the fourth official is waiting for commercials, then who is really running the game? FIFA? The referee? Or the broadcasters? Because the moment football starts asking advertisers for permission before asking the players, you’ve crossed a line. The World Cup is supposed to be the showcase of football. Not the showcase of who paid the most for airtime.”

@Denzell_Of_NSH Storms like this are pretty common there in the summer. It's actually a good sign — afterwards the air quality is much nicer You only really need to worry once the clouds turn green

Kinda funny how England is having just the worst time here lol

@GirkinGirkin 🤔

Ok twi, rate this music

@The_Rad_Dawg @davebftv Fighting through that tackle like it's nothing was crazy...That was a HARD tackle and from behind

@davebftv absolute fucking ripper looks even better from this angle

The US has guys like this now. Folarin Balogun holy hell
