  1. Adrienne Shelley was outstanding as a guest star in a season 2 episode. Unsettling and sad how she later died. https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2021/dec/01/adrienne-shelly-waitress-hbo-documentary
  2. Chelsea doesn’t want to pay him and his staff the terms from the terminated contract. And if he signs new contract with US or another job they will use that salary as reason to not pay or minimize pay to him/staff. The American owner of Chelsea needs to pay him for the good of his nation’s team. But Boehly is an internationalist and doesn’t give a fuck.
  3. Looks like Tessman fucked up and is not currently playing. Did his agents demand too much for the transfer to fiortina? https://prosoccerwire.usatoday.com/2024/08/15/tessmann-out-of-project-venezia-usmnt/
  4. Doug Sahm. Texas Me.
  5. She was amazing in her husbands films. [on her role in A Woman Under the Influence (1974)] I knew many girls who had had breakdowns. I drew little touches from each of them and a lot from myself. I don't mean I'm really going mad, but I'm a little crazy - we all are - and sometimes I let things go. A good insight of her work is in this article. https://www.bfi.org.uk/sight-and-sound/features/gena-rowlands-performance-from-inside-out
  6. Just watched that episode. The rooftop scene where Stringer and Avon had fucked each over was sublime. A little bit of reminiscing and guilt, but neither knowing what the other had done.
  7. Chelsea has been a shitstorm since the oligarch was told to take a hike. He doesn’t need to defend that. PSG money hires coaches to win it all as ligue un is a formality. He didn’t do that lime all the other psg coaches Being a development coach doesn’t hurt him as a national team coach. He’s not going to complicate the system because he thinks it’s all about him.
  8. Shit, I’d take a men’s coach who has the quality of Emma Hayes. Can we land Pochetino or Tuchel? We ain’t got either but wouldn’t you rather have a quality gk or cb?
  9. Silver linings: u20 made the World Cup with a b team. u23 made it to the knockouts with a c team. We no longer have Greg at the helm for USMNT.
  10. US beat Costa Rica 2-1 after moving cities due to
  11. So in women’s handball you can get a two minute penalty for grabbing your opponent by the boob. Slow motion works pretty good.
  12. If they beat NZ then they can afford to tie Guinea as long as France beats both of those teams.
  13. US v France today at 2 on USA Network.
  14. Cuba played hard and pressured well but as a group their first touch was horrible. One attack in the box was stopped by 6’8 goalie Julian Eyestone who is a fcd product. He snagged what looked like a dangerous cross with ease. You can hear the coaches in the background including comment like that was shit from a hopeful shot. Final was 4-0.
  15. 9-0 US over Jamaica at U20 concacaf tourney to qualify for World Cup. Supposed to be a depleted team where multiple players didn’t get releases or are on Olympic team. List of u20 players with lots of dual/tri nationals. https://www.ussoccercollective.com/rankings/top-50
  16. One of the podcasts said that Crocker had decided on Marsch, but the players overwhelmingly wanted berhalter and the leadership council went the players way.
  17. Canada whoopin that American ass courtesy of 8 turnovers in the first quarter.
  18. https://www.today.com/news/paris-olympics/usa-mens-soccer-team-olympics-roster-rcna160453 Who's on the U.S. men's soccer roster for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris? Patrick Schulte β€” goalkeeper Gaga Slonina β€” goalkeeper Maximilian Dietz β€” defender Nathan Harriel β€” defender Miles Robinson β€” defender John Tolkin β€” defender Caleb Wiley β€” defender Walker Zimmerman β€” defender Gianluca Busio β€” midfielder Benjamin Cremaschi β€” midfielder Jack McGlynn β€” midfielder Djordje Mihailovic β€” midfielder Tanner Tessmann β€” midfielder Paxten Aaronson β€” forward Taylor Booth β€” forward Duncan McGuire β€” forward Kevin Paredes β€” forward Griffin Yow β€” forward Josh Atencio β€” alternate Jacob Davis β€” alternate Johan Gomez β€” alternate John Pulskamp β€” alternate
  19. News leaking out on US Olympic team. Zimmerman, Robinson and Mihailovich are the overage choices. No Luna. They asked him to be an alternate and he told them no. Sounds very disorganized. Vazquez not released and they asked late for Jordan Morris. Seattle would only agree for a partial release, so no go.
  20. Monster - Japanese film about bullying from three different perspectives. A quality film by Hirozaku Kore-Edu who did Shoplifters and Nobody Knows. The acting is excellent and the story has a bit of a Rashoman vibe.
  21. British shows Psycho Paul - Ideal. Jeff Murdoch - Coupling. Fleabag.
  22. Possible silver lining. Does stuck in group play mean that Reyna, Pepi, Musah and Scally play in Olympics? Balogun is age eligible too, but playing for u21s for England may disqualify him. Zimmerman and Robinson will be overage center backs with one more overage player available.
  23. What a lovely movie. I can’t imagine many putting down their phone to watch this, but it’s a better experience if one does. It makes me want to find my old cassette tapes and drink an ice water at a bar. But more importantly it makes me want to be present in my mundane routines. I swim daily in the Comal river and watch the fish and turtles. During Covid it was important for me to see faces and fish faces worked. I have replaced my commute with this daily swim and my days are better for it. Having lived for a year in Japan, I enjoy Japanese beer, food and movies. Wenders directing brought the perfect touch and the song choices were nice, especially the ending song.
  24. This film can now be streamed on Hulu.
  25. 5 guys that Beard successfully recruited were drafted. Holland, Johnson, Tyson, McCullar, Shannon. Combination of Covid, coaching change and being fired helped create this opportunity. Talk about a weak draft. 3 transfers and two who didn’t play for him.
