Now that the US is knocked out, I am formally extending an invitation to the American people to support Norway.
Why?
1: The Vikings discovered America before Columbus.
2: There are more ethnic Norwegians in the US than in Norway.
3: Next weekend we can pillage the English peasants together.
4:
With their wins over Sweden and Senegal, the French national team has as many wins at MetLife Stadium in the World Cup as the New York Jets did in the 2025 NFL season
The whole 82-0 phenomenon reinforces that whole bit about how the only thing a bunch of dudes need in order to have a good time is to sit around announcing the names of a bunch of old athletes.
Hot take: Luka being clearly better than Shai throughout the entirety of their basketball lives until last season probably means he is better than him but the GM gap is too wide for 77 to keep proving it.
🎼 And I never hoist the mainstay and I never swab the poop deck, and I never veer to starboard 'cause I never sail at all, and I've never walked the gang plank and I've never owned a parrot, and I've never been to Boston in the fall 🎶
@NoahWhey With the amount of access the team gives their own media and the transparency they’ve shown to local folks (and have proven to be trustworthy to a high degree), there’s zero reason to look to national. Zero.
