  1. Close, but inaccurate. ACCURATE: When a Missouri high school player (1) signs financial assistance paperwork with an instate college, (2) then that player can start collecting NIL for whatever they can pull money in from. (3) This is not “publicly committing to a school.” (4) Signing the papers and accepting NIL does not tie them to the in-state school. (5) In theory Wingo could sign papers with Mizzou and then go to UT in January.
  2. Stop listening to whatever/whomever you are hearing this from.
  3. I’ve mentioned these chicas before, but they met a couple of years ago because they were both fans of The Strokes and after a trip to the USA (NYC around 2021/22 NYE) and tons of videos of them doing various covers, they recorded an album. They’re something like 25 & 20. (I think.) This is a video of their lyrics to all of their songs. They are worth a follow.
  4. I have traveled to Europe and back via coach seats and I have traveled back & forth via first class seats and I can confirm that Johnson is a fucking idiot if he is trying to say that flying first class to Europe, staying in a 5 star hotel/ resort, high end home in the area, and then playing golf is hard. I could go on, but this isn’t about me. Johnson is a douche. (But he’s not unique in the golfing community.)
  5. European fans imitating New Zealand rugby fans watching their team doing a pre-match Haka will never not be cringe. (Though not as cringe as American fans imitating Europeans imitating native South Pacific Islanders’ tradition.)
  6. Don’t understand this answer, but upon further review, it appears to be Ukraine’s blue & the EU’s yellow/gold. That Euro guy’s moobs are very jiggly.
  7. QUESTION: Europe’s shirts have a color combo that uses Ukraine’s 🇺🇦 blue & yellow rather than Europe’s Was this ever addressed during the week/ weekend?
  8. “That will not be conceded. No chance.” -announcer [Hole is immediately conceded and crowd goes nuts.] [Announcer is trying to explain away being a fucking idiot and totally getting it wrong like a drunken couch potato.]
  9. I think the Euros are feeding off all of the freedom that exists in the EU. American guys don’t know what to make of all that freedom. Side Note: USMNT CB Chris Richards just got subbed in late to help secure Crystal Palace’s 0-1 lead AT Old Trafford. (Also taking place in Europe, but this American may actually be a winner today.)
  10. If you want to see USA 🇺🇸 taking it to Europe, turn on The Tennis Channel right now and catch Jessica Pegula 🇺🇸 taking it to Maria Sakkari 🇬🇷. Pegula up 6-2 , 4-2 in the second set.
  11. This just means that he refused to have sex with the producer(s) and/or the director(s). That’s LA speak and common on the FOX lot.
  12. Yikes is right! That grammar is awful. ”…to get run out of Boone Pickens Stadium.” TJ Eckert is all kinds of Yikes.
  13. Maybe the kid likes getting $500 to $1,000 to go to football games where he is treated like a VIP. That short term $$ and fun can be very enticing to anyone, much less a 17 year-old who thinks that he can sneak out of the house without his parents knowing about it. My guess is that he is/was having a difficult time processing that actions can have consequences when money & fun are being dangled in his face several states away from where “his football parents” are at the moment.

    USMNT 2023

    Even bigger news… USA defender Reggie Cannon joins English club QPR United States international Reggie Cannon has joined English second-tier team Queens Park Rangers on a four-year contract, the club said Tuesday. The defender was allowed to sign outside of the transfer window because he was a free agent after leaving Portuguese club Boavista in June. "I have always wanted to play in England, this is an incredible opportunity to show what I can do," the 25-year-old said. "I have always wanted to attack overseas football because I think that is where the best players are, and that is how you find your better game and develop, so I really think this will help me achieve the best that I can be as a footballer." Cannon previously played for FC Dallas and joined Boavista in 2020. Reggie Cannon will be looking to get back into the USMNT picture after joining QPR. Brad Smith/ISI Photos/Getty Images QPR plays in the English second division and was last in the Premier League in the 2014-15 season. The club said the transfer was subject to approval by FIFA, the FA and English Football League. Cannon will also need to receive international clearance. "We have fought off clubs to get him and I believe Reggie will become a big asset for us," QPR head coach Gareth Ainsworth said. "He can play on the right side of midfield as a wing-back, he can play as a right-sided centre-back, so he is going to add real competition for places which is what we need. "With him being without a club over the summer he is going to need a bit of time to get up to speed but I know he is raring to get going with us." Cannon has made 28 appearances for the U.S., scoring one goal, and last featured in a September 2022 friendly against Japan. The Associated Press contributed to this report. https://www.espn.com/soccer/story/_/id/38497978/usa-defender-reggie-cannon-joins-english-club-qpr
  15. Max Scherzer was the curse. Rangers were rolling and then they traded for him. Then the Rangers sucked ass until he thankfully got hurt. Then the Rangers have been rolling ever since. Max brought the Mets bad juju with him from Queens, NY and he has taken it away with him since he was injured. Rangers need to look to get rid of him in the offseason.
  16. DIMITRI NICOLAS apparently is not the first generation Slav son of Eastern European immigrants that I thought he might be. My updated opinion could be wrong, but I don't think so. The wait for the next Eastern Bloc descent DL prospect continues.
  17. Didn’t Dolehide beat someone highly ranked last week? (Or the week before.) I think that she’s having a moment.
  18. I never see ads… except recently I bounced over to the Cloak Room to see reactions to something. Maybe Boebert’s misunderstanding in the theater. 🤷‍♂️ Holy crap was I inundated with ads that were more in-your-face that 5 drill sergeants in the face of a newly enlisted kid ducking around in basic training (I would guess). I’m a poor (forgive me for being an over educated poor) and so I always wondered why I am not inundated with ads. Just discovered that I’m a “Legacy” member, whatever that means. I have been around since Hornfans in 2000 (and maybe Austin360 (365?) before that. Was banned a couple of times from Hornfans for language 🙄, so not sure when I started down the Napoleon path, but probably mid-late 2000s. If you really want to OG, you need to provide some original recipe of this shit… Downing one of these to start a cheap night out was something I may or may not have done nearly 20 years ago. It was the first of the premixed booze & “energy” drinks as far as I know.
