FOX paid 485M for broadcast rights for the entire World Cup.

Netflix paid 375M for five NFL games.

Supreme Court rules that Balogun is eligible to play against Belgium, but it's 5-4 over a 75 page Thomas dissent.

@rickjudd21 I'd agree with you if this was the front page of the entire paper/news section. But the top sports story of the day in Seattle and the rest of the country is what USMNT did, not what Belgium/Senegal did.

@hawkblogger “Bizarre decision” and “Seattle Times” are a match made in heaven over the course of this entire World Cup.

SEATTLE. MONDAY. BE THERE! #USMNT

[Austin Lane @AustinLane__]

OH MY WORD!!! #USMNT

[Austin Lane @AustinLane__]

FLO!

[Austin Lane @AustinLane__]

Refsnyder starting has gone from a funny bit to downright depressing.

[Seattle Mariners @Mariners]

Tonight’s squad in Cleveland. #TridentsUp

[Austin Lane @AustinLane__]

Pretty good looking lineup. I predict a 2-1 loss.

[Seattle Mariners @Mariners]

ARRRRGH ya ready, kids 🏴‍☠️

The United States returning to Seattle for a Group of 16 match is now a simple task: win in the Round of 32.

Actually, that’s not so simple when you think about what teams are currently in 3rd place and could play the U.S. in that round.

[FOX Sports @FOXSports]

The @USMNT is through to the Round of 32. 🇺🇸

Which countries do you think will join them?

[FOX Sports @FOXSports]

The @USMNT soars into the knockout round 🦅

[Austin Lane @AustinLane__]

Group F has easily been the most competitive. Sweden with a dominant 5-1 win over Tunisia but still have to face both Netherlands and Japan who played to a really tough 2-2 draw with lots of creativity on both sides.

All 48 teams at the FIFA World Cup have finished their first matchday 🌎

Which group do you think is the most competitive?

“The city is a pile of garbage” 👎

“Just wait until a homeless vagrant stabs you” 💉🗑️

“Seattle is a shithole” 🚮

Either this is some extreme propaganda or a sick person running an agenda. Seattle has been nothing but ungodly beautiful. A rewarding trip for an outsider 🙏

Another full day of FIFA World Cup action

[Aaron Levine @AaronLevine_]

For Friday:

#USMNT can clinch first place in Group D with a win over Australia + a Turkey loss or draw with Paraguay

Australia can clinch first place with a win over USA + a Paraguay loss or draw with Turkey

This is because head-to-head results are the first tiebreaker.

[Austin Lane @AustinLane__]

1/5 of the way through and it is a blast so far!

[Austin Lane @AustinLane__]

That stretch from June 14-17 is going to be a blast.

Netherlands vs. Japan
Ivory Coast vs. Ecuador
Belgium vs. Egypt
France vs. Senegal
England vs. Croatia

Gone way too soon. He was a nightmare for the Seahawks in the 2010s.

[San Francisco 49ers @49ers]

The 49ers mourn the passing of former LB Aldon Smith.

@AaronLevine_ I could see them beating any of those four countries in that Round of 16 match too, including Belgium. They'd likely have Spain waiting for them in the quarterfinal so that's probably where the dream run would end.

[Austin Lane @AustinLane__]

Top shelf banger from Flo. Cannot WAIT to watch this version of U.S. men’s soccer in Seattle.
