  1. The Brooklyn Kristallnachts also had to change their team’s name back in the late 1940s because apparently their prospective fan base wasn’t onboard with the name. Who could have guessed? 🤷‍♂️
  2. U.S. Bitches goes down 2-0 to Mexico and come in 2nd in their group. 😂 Love going through and seeing how many Mexican girls are American born-and-raised. (About 30%-40% of the team.) And thoroughly outplayed. And how long has it been since Mexico last won?
  3. FUCK the renamed Houston 1836ers!! Shitty shade of orange.
  4. A song cannot be sang anywhere. Just an FYI. Saying that it can be is making more than just the dead person miserable.
  5. Not new: It’s a joy for weaker teams to celebrate the home win over a rival or highly ranked team. PRO TIP: Don’t try to deliver a forearm to a home fan when you’re outnumbered 200 to 1. If you get fucked up, you were asking for it and deserve it. PS- Reached out to a Dallas friend whose son was a huge basketball fan since kindergarten or so, played all the way through varsity, and is a freshman at Wake Forest this year. I asked her if her son stormed the court, because I told her that I knew for sure that he was at the game. She replied: “Of course!” (She was probably also thinking- “Filipowski is a pansy-assed bitch.”)
  6. Filipowski seems like a bitch. Just watched the replay and what a little bitch. He fucked up with 3 seconds left in the game. Take it like a man. What a pitiful whiny bitch. He tried to forearm an awake fan in the face. He’s lucky he didn’t get dropped. Love to see it. 😂
  7. I would have listed their prices separately totaling about $150 to $165 and then said “Willing to Negotiate Package Deal”. Then they think that they are scoring getting you down to $125 to $140.

    Chris Richards to striker!
  9. Still kills me (not literally) that we were tied with the Coogs at the end of the game and had the ball. Wrote some regarded shit that led to us not getting a shot off to win it. Aarrrrrgggg! We could have really used that win over a Top 5 team.
  10. Leggy Kalinskaya . . . . . . Blew her serve for the match and was broken at 15-40. ”The Final Meltdown.” Now 0-30 with Kalinskaya double faulting to go to 0-40… triple match point and then loses… What an incredible choke! Happy for Paolini and would love to “console” Kalinskaya.
  11. An entire music video of Amazing Goals & Blunders. (Don’t know if any saves were made during the editing of this video.)
  12. Iga went down to someone who is NOT considered one of the biggest hitters in the game. Definitely pulling for the Italiana diminutiva* in the final. *maybe that’s piccola ragazza italiana in Italian.
  13. Most songs over the years, I listened for the music, the beat, the chorus maybe if it was catchy. Never bought albums, never cared to read the lyrics printed out on the album sleeve. Never even thought about finding songs with lyrics that expressed what I couldn’t find the words to say. 🤷‍♂️ I listened to most of the Old 97s lyrics because I have casually known Rhett since he was in 7th grade and he’s a friend, but I don’t know the back stories to his songs from being friends, but rather because I have heard him talk about the next song when chatting with the audience. Even then, I don’t know if he is telling the truth or if he has created a story that audiences like. In films I analyze the dialogue, but in songs… I listen to and think about the lyrics of just a really small percentage of the songs that I have ever heard.
  14. “Doreen” -the whole fucking song.

    How would you say “Fuck China!” in the most soccer way you could imagine? Argentina scheduled exhibitions against El Salvador and Nigeria in the United States next month as part of Copa America preparations, replacing a China tour canceled after Lionel Messi didn't play at Inter Miami's preseason game in Hong Kong. Argentina will play El Salvador on March 22 at Philadelphia's Lincoln Financial Field and Nigeria four days later at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, the Argentina Football Association said Thursday. Messi, Argentina's captain, is likely to be with the World Cup champions and miss Miami's Major League Soccer match at the New York Red Bulls on March 23. World Cup champion Argentina had been scheduled to play Nigeria at Hangzhou and Ivory Coast at Beijing during a tour of China from March 18-26. Lionel Messi and Argentina will now play two March friendlies in the United States. Messi said before Miami's friendly against a local all-star team in Hong Kong on Feb. 4 that he was suffering from a groin injury, and his absence sparked spectator anger. He played three days later in Tokyo in an exhibition against Vissel Kobe. Argentina, the defending world and South American champion, opens the Copa América against Canada or Trinidad and Tobago on June 20 at Atlanta, then plays Chile five days later at East Rutherford, New Jersey, and Peru on June 29 at Miami Gardens, Florida. https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/39577073/argentina-canceled-china-friendlies-rescheduled-usa
  16. Jesus would have had 33, so…
  17. The kits are out and Austin’s sucks ass. ESPN rating the kits. https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/39563280/mls-jersey-power-rankings-2024-style-icons
  18. My impression from his not listing Texas is that the Texas staff wants to be beaten out for his signature.
  19. The reason that you like “Won’t Be Home” (2004) so much is that it was written back in the meth-a-billy* mid-to-late 1990s. I had probably heard that song 7 to 10 times over a number of years when i saw the Old 97s at TREES (in Deep Ellum in Dallas) in late 2003 to 2004. Rhett announced that this next song was on their upcoming album. I was singing along in the middle of the crowd (no VIP for that show) and the guy next to me asked me how I knew the words. I told him that I’d heard it a ton of times over the years. I don’t know when it was first performed, but i think that Rhett had tinkered with the lyrics a bit and it didn’t fit the vibe of “Satellite Rides” and the stuff that Jon Brion produced for them, but it’s a great song live. *”meth-a-billy” is not a factual description, but a joke on my part to describe the speed rock-a-billy songs when Rhett would whip his sweaty head back in forth that led a doctor to tell him to stop and Philip would wail on the drums at a pace that must have been more than 200bpm. “Doreen” & “Time Bomb” are also fine examples of that era.
  20. If Christian Slater & Winona Ryder went to Lake Travis, he wouldn’t even make it to his high school graduation.
  21. The mom is probably upset because: -They won’t be able to use Texas’ interest when negotiating an initial bag from OU boosters. -The publicity may affect his long term NIL ceiling. She suck’s as a human being, but she’s a Sooner, so saying that may be redundant.
  22. Flops should be seen as a delay of game. -Warning, Yellow Card, Second Yellow Card Injured players should be give 30 seconds to get off the field at the nearest touch line where they can be tended to. Each 30 second time period should be seen as an individual Delay of Game. -Bloody head wounds, broken bones, and loss of consciousness/heart stoppages should be the only exceptions. -Flopping yellows should be awarded if film replays show flopping even if not detected by referees. -I would be for hands being required to be clasped behind all players’ back (other than the keeper) by all players in the box on set pieces until the ball enters the box. It would make skying for a header virtually impossible, but it would prevent 4 to 7 tackles occurring in the box on every set piece.
  23. All rules should be enforced. Then, if things seem overboard, the rules can be changed. Getting called for a foul because you got football/rugby tackled is fucking regarded.
