I tweet about things that interest me. My most often interests are Arsenal, Sporting KC, KC Royals, Mizzou, and USMNT.

Met a man from Switzerland who is in Kansas City for the first time.

"Never thought about [KC}. Middle of nowhere, middle of America. Love it. ... It's all about love. It's all about people. It's like, we are all the same. No matter which color, no matter which age. That's it."

@dpanjada @downthebyline They’re decision to block KC kids from MLS Next Tier 1 can only be described as a shrewd business move that was at the expense of youth development.

[Andrew Clifton @AndrewClifton4]

@dpanjada @downthebyline They’ve routinely taken the best KC kids between U12-U15 into their academy only to replace them at U16 by out of state kids developed by someone else. It’s largely been those out of town kids that they didn’t develop before age U16 that make the 1st team. (Cont…)

@PlayFor90 @KCSoccerJournal It’s wild in KC. KC had the second highest US youth participation rate per capita in the early 2000s. SKC comes in and tries to bulldoze its way to a monopoly at the expense of youth soccer player development. This podcast episode touches on some of it https://t.co/lPKiRNdTXZ

@THEChrisKessell This podcast episode covers some of the examples of SKC’s poor youth soccer development strategy. https://t.co/lPKiRNdTXZ

They told us Democrats would turn America into a show-your-papers society.

They told us Democrats would strip away the Second Amendment.

They told us Democrats would jail us for what we say.

They told us Democrats would drag us into more foreign wars.

They told us Democrats would cover up a child sex trafficking ring.

And then Republicans took power and decided to do all of it themselves.

@Don_K_Williams 5v5 with a real soccer ball is much better for development compared to playing with a futsal ball. Futsal ball is easier to control and has 40% of the bounce of a soccer ball. It blows my mind people don’t talk about this more.

Jimmy Kimmel: "It was a terrible night for everyone who voted against him, and guess what? It was a bad night for everyone who voted for him too. You just don't realize it yet."

Jon Stewart’s 2-minute history lesson here is worth everyone’s time before we start confidently breaking out our theories of what happened

[God @TheTweetOfGod]

In an ideal scenario the President of the United States and the worst person in the world would be two different people.

All the midwits who said “you’re overreacting!” when we were all saying that our democracy is at stake can eat shit.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Colin Cowherd didn't mince words about Donald Trump:

“If everybody in your social circle is a felon, I don’t think it’s rigged."

@herculezg There were two at the Wizards around the time you were there. So… you didn’t miss playing with Yale grads at the MLS level by much. (Ryan Raybould and Brian Roberts)

[Royals Review @royalsreview]

Imaging going back to Memorial Day of 2013 when the Royals were in last place and the Chiefs were coming off a 2-14 season and knowing you were about to see a decade with 2 World Series, 4 Super Bowls, 1 MLB championship, and 3 NFL titles over the next decade.

Jeez, Detroit hasn't collapsed like this since Japan started selling cars in the US. #Lions #DETvsSF #NFLPlayoffs

[Todd Leabo @Leabonics]

Think about all the 11-month-old Chiefs fans who’ve never seen this team in the Super Bowl. They finally get to experience it. #ChiefsKingdom
