  1. Does Trump even own Trump Tower? I just presumed at this point in his grift he just paid for naming rights and perhaps was the property manager.
  2. Well I guess we could be Germany. Colombia got ‘em twice.

    Trusty to Sheffield United. Seems like a good landing spot.
  4. I'll spoiler even though finale was 2 weeks old....

    Austin Chronicle made the most sense of it….. ”[Borell]’s new to town, hasn’t witnessed with his own eyes what Fagúndez means to the club, and has ideas for Austin FC’s future that require financial flexibility to bring them to fruition.” This was done without sentimentality and with a view toward a big picture that we [the fans] are completely in the dark on (which is fine), and, unfortunately; is probably coming after this season unless some FAs become available in next month or so. Trust the process?
  6. This Messi guy may be a real find for Miami.
  7. Trump knew where he stood in 2015/16 with the shooting a guy on 5th avenue comment. 30-35% of our country prefer to harm others than help themselves or their family because they get more pleasure out of that than they do succeeding on their own. That’s never going to change. The issue is that Trump mined that in a way no one in the US has since, I dunno, ever? When he dies I think that group fragments a lot until the next person comes along. Let’s just hope he dies soon.

    So I may have missed upthread, but apparently our new guy also sold an international spot to LAFC who are likely going to use it to pick up Chucky Lozano. Seems like he's trying to free up money to do..... what?

    Other than maybe Stuver, Fagundez seemed to the face of the organization. I get Driussi is the best player but Fagundez is on the billboards and commercials. Weird move at a weird time. We better be acquiring someone.
  10. The Padres aren't selling anymore after they swept the Rangers. Not sure why we keep talking about it. I am also just posting this because I hope I am wrong.
  11. So if you are Austin FC, what is minimum you would take from Saudis for Driussi on top of taking Rigoni too, of course.
  12. This seems like the ‘98 men’s World Cup or ‘18 qualifying where we are stuck between two generations that don’t really like each other. I just get sense that Morgan and Rapinoe can’t stand Smith and Rodman and vice versa. How did Thompson do once she got out there? I don’t have time to watch that boring shit.
  13. Padres aren’t doing anything. This deadline blows.
  14. Christie was on Pod Save America this week and it had me at different points admiring him, rolling my eyes and downright irate. I honestly look forward to him v Trump on debate stage as I think he’s the only one in the primary that can fuck Trump’s shit up in a debate. But he is so afraid to say that he was a Trump supporter because “team”. Dude. It’s ok. We aren’t going to hold it against you in the primaries and you have no shot in the general. Don’t be afraid to admit you supported Trump because it helped you. Not because you believed in the dude. Then he drew equivalencies between Hunter and Trump’s grifting kids and Joe’s and Trump’s responsibility there and hand waived the Crowe/Thomas stuff and you realize he’s still just another grifting asshole.
  15. Seems like both Rodman and Smith could have been subbed, although Smith was better later. So I don’t get his take. You get 5 subs and you aren’t winning. Get some energy on the field. School me on whether Thompson is ready for prime time or not. I am curious.

    Who still needs a landing spot? TA, or is he staying with Leeds?
  17. No idea how to imbed TikTok but this seal dialogue is nails. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT88P5aKr/
  18. Zazie Beetz’ character annoys me too. I usually really like her but I am rooting against here. Maybe that’s the point. Good show otherwise.

    The calls with your club liaison to change were last week (mine is Monett and she has been awesome -- got my daughter a spot walking out with team in this year's opener). But I imagine there may still be room to move. Last year was my first bite, so not a lot of options on west side which was a requirement for wife given the sun. We had 4 seats, two seats in each of rows 2 and 4 in Section 311. Wasn't ideal, but it got us in the door. We got another family to go in with us for next year and we are in Lexus in 110 next year. There were at least 2 other sets of 4 in Lexus and a few up above. So seems like more available once you are already a ticketholder.
  20. Yeah. He doesn’t want to go to SA it is clear. Seems like all these other dudes and the LIV golfers accepted their deal with the devil but it’s a shitload of money for what will ultimately be (at least temporary) obscurity. It has a real life Space Jam feel to it all but instead of getting kidnapped by Marvin the Martian they are getting money whipped by MBS et al. Mbappe is in his prime. His endorsement money probably plummets if he is in SA. PSG need to take the $110m or so from RM and end it. This Saudi deal has given RM more leverage imo.
  21. The RBs apparently had a conference call today. I am sympathetic to their annoyance, but they don’t seem to understand that the market just isn’t there and it kinda is what it is. They aren’t owed more than what market will bear. I am not sure what they want to happen? It’s not like 250 lb MLBs, the Steve Atwater type SS, and over the center NGs could control their fate either. The difference is these guys touch the ball so we notice this market dynamic more. Agree that kids are going to try to shift to WR or defense. But then the kids that don’t are going to be so much better that they will be valued again. That said QB-WR/TE skill set has improved exponentially due to a lot of factors including the infestation of spread and 7 on 7. Until something new and dynamic happens at RB I could see how guys like Deebo, McCaffrey, Kamara and even Bijan could potentially create a “new” position that has some value.
  22. So if we trade for Bellinger can we make him publicly apologize for his bitchassedness 3 years ago? Somehow the Astros “cheating” caused him a blow in the 2017 World Series. That dude sucks and will be hard to root for.
  23. Yeah…. Messi and maybe CR7 are the only guys that would do better in the MLS because of endorsements etc. But going to play there, at least right now, seems to put you in more obscurity than the LIV tour. And fucking living there would be a beating. They probably get set up with the “rules for thee not for ye” as part of the deal though.
