  1. I’m starting to wonder if you have to be legally classified as an imbecile to post on this thread if you have below 1,000 cred votes. My Saturday to Saturday stay in an AirBnB is going to be so outrageously mild it will be covered by CNN International.
  2. Krueger was up a break in each set, I believe. DID ANYONE SEE THIS?👇 🤌🤌🤌
  3. That stupid forehand doesn’t do her any favors on grass (or fast hard courts like Australia).
  4. #3 Jessica Pegula won a total of 5 games. First round bed shitting against… Pegula had better have been injured or having crippling menstrual cramps to get trounced by someone over 100 spots below her.
  5. I don’t want to step out of line here, but… Your wife sounds like she sucks. With all due respect, you sound like an idiot PW knows of what PW speaks. I’ve been to Paris twice, but those two visits were in the ‘90s. I am going again for a week starting this Saturday and I am contemplating adding a few days before I’m supposed to arrive on Saturday or after I’m supposed to leave next Saturday, because I am bouncing around Europe on a Eurail pass for a couple of months. ”5 Days in Paris is Enough” 🤌🤌🤌 Who is the budget Instagram influencer that you’re following who preaches that? This trip I will definitely see: •Versailles (I have done the gardens, but lack of planning and need to deposit a 💩 cut my visit early) •Pompidou •Musee d’Orsay (again) •The Louvre (again) •Wine tasting •Chocolate tasting •Escargot on the left bank (again) •Panthéon •Hôtel des Invalides (maybe) •Roland Garros 🎾 (gift shop and/or tour) •Sacre Coeur (again) •Cemetery (that is over the top) •Compare & Contrast Pain au Chocolate et Croissant •Crépes avec Nutella … and more.
  6. Went by the club last week (as posted on ATP/WTA thread and the grounds are TINY! The club is in the middle of a neighborhood with tons of small streets coming off of the two main roads by it that say “NO PARKING / RESIDENTS ONLY” And that was just for qualifiers. Parking is on grass somewhere in the golf course across one of the main roads borders and who knows how long after the last point does it take for drivers & ride share passengers to get out of the neighborhood. The US Open & Australian Open are nowhere near residential areas and I think that the French Open is only semi-residential. Wimbledon’s practice courts back up to the back fences of houses. It makes total sense that they would have a curfew/ stopping time.
  7. It’s nice having your national team head coach interviewing for other jobs with 11 1/2 months to go before you host a World Cup. 😅
  8. Why would someone stay in shitty-ass northern Italy and eat amazing food and date sexy, but emotionally unstable when that person could move to central England and occasionally see the sun while counting on one hand how many sunny days they experience each month?

    Tre Johnson

    Lew Alcindor?
  10. At least Gregg fucking Berhalter wasn’t knighted. …what a fucking joke! 👇 Sir Gareth joins the greats as football's seventh knighted manager Phil McNulty Chief football writer Published 25 June 2025 1796 Comments Gareth Southgate added his name to an elite footballing list when the former England manager received his knighthood at Windsor Castle on Wednesday. The 54-year-old, who stepped down from the England post after almost eight years following defeat by Spain in the Euro 2024 final, was awarded the honour for services to football. Southgate's influence, however, stretched beyond the field of play as he became one of football's most respected figures. He is only the seventh football manager to be given the honour. Southgate joins the list of knights that also includes: England's World Cup-winning manager Sir Alf Ramsey Manchester United legends Sir Matt Busby and Sir Alex Ferguson England, Barcelona, Newcastle and Ipswich great Sir Bobby Robson Liverpool legend and Premier League-winning manager with Blackburn, Sir Kenny Dalglish Sir Walter Winterbottom, England's first international manager, who led his country from 1946 to 1962 So what are the reflections now on Southgate's England tenure, and why has he been selected for the knighthood honour? You can let us know your thoughts in the comments section. A nearly manager of a nearly team?… CLICK FOR FULL STORY: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c1ljpdn6yelo
  11. If he can morph into a Brazilian-raised Rodrigo de Paul 🇦🇷, only without the tattoos, we could really be onto something. RdP has more soccer savvy than our entire roster combined and the heart of a lion, especially when playing for his national team. He’s a decent to strong player for Atletico Madrid, but he is an absolute god when running the midfield for Argentina. Johnny Futebol needs to learn both the leadership methods and the dark arts of RdP and he will be the first choice DM over anyone in our pool.
  12. I hope that they don’t give up an recruit through the bell. Perhaps that towel was their shared cum rag and things are going so well that it was time for a fresh towel. [Think about that for a minute.] I’m currently in Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿, so this hits close to home, except replace the “K”s with “LL”s and change every “U” to a “Y”. 🤘
  13. I had to watch it 2 or 3 times on my phone to figure out what in the hell I was watching. Nice!
  14. This? https://www.wimbledon-debenture-tickets.co.uk/ I may be priced out of this year’s Championships. 😳 💩
  15. I wonder if he can learn to be better with the ball. If his touch was like it was on his goal in the last game, he could be a force at a solidly built 6’4”.
  16. If they were looking to only sell 20K tickets/game, they wouldn’t need to have the tournament in the USA every time. They could sell 50K to 60K in Mexico and bring in the same money with a much better atmosphere.
  17. How did you get your tickets? I tried to buy just a Grounds Pass around the 10th (I think) and the entire tournament was sold out. (I think that tickets went on sale June 6th. Nothing like the US Open. Also, the entire tournament grounds appear to have a footprint of about 1/3 of the U.S. Open. The grounds are tiny.
  18. Boca Jrs must be playing all scrubs.
  19. Inter Miami played a Brazilian club in Miami (the capital of Latin America) in front of 60K fans and Seattle Sounders played the Champions League champions PSG in front of 50K at home, both very respectable numbers. Then you had a half-empty stadium and one at less than 25% capacity.
  20. Surly headquarters for the Kentucky game?
  21. Was running late and had heaps of luggage (to sound Australian), but I stopped by the Wimbledon grounds yesterday to check out their Museum & Gift Shop. (The qualifying is taking place across the street, or close by, so that the courts don’t get destroyed.) Old People will recognize this doll. Emma Raducanu’s US Open trophy. 🏆 Women’s undergarments over the years. Everyone had a pair of this in my class in the 7th - 9th grade window (maybe stretched into 10th grade). Trophies In 2022, they apparently dumped the whole “Miss” part of the name and welcomed in a run of Slavs. Djokovic’s run was stopped by Álcaraz. Maybe clearer here. The runs of Bjorg, McEnroe, and Becker with others sprinkled in. Different angle. Various keychains for £10 each in the shop. These tiny branded luggage tag & wallet/card holders on the top row were priced: £45 / £69 / £49 Parting shots… Less than a week away.
