كأس العالم ده شكله هيبقى كارثة تاريخية .. كل يوم منتخب جديد يقع ضحية للتأشيرات 😳

بعد جنوب أفريقيا.
وبعد سويسرا.
دلوقتي جاء دور المغرب.

بعثة أسود الأطلس سافرت إلى الولايات المتحدة من أجل الاستعدادات الأخيرة للبطولة.
لكن من غير زكريا الواحدي.

والسبب؟
رفض التأشيرة الأمريكية مرتين كاملتين!
مش مرة واحدة.
لأ ... مرتين.

الموقف وصل لدرجة إن الاتحاد المغربي اضطر يسافر بعلي معمر مع البعثة.
رغم إنه لا موجود في القائمة النهائية.
ولا حتى في قائمة الاحتياط.
فقط تحسبًا لأسوأ سيناريو ممكن.

لأنه لو أزمة الواحدي متحلتش بسرعة...
هيتم استبعاده قبل انطلاق البطولة مباشرة.
ويدخل معمر مكانه.

بصراحة...
المفروض إن المنتخبات في الأيام الأخيرة قبل كأس العالم تكون مركزة على الجوانب الفنية.
والخطط.
والمباريات الودية.
مش على التأشيرات وتصاريح الدخول.

لكن واضح إن البطولة دي قررت تختبر أعصاب المنتخبات قبل ما تختبر مستواهم داخل الملعب.
وكل يوم بنسمع عن منتخب جديد عنده مشكلة مختلفة.

لدرجة إني بدأت أحس إن إجراءات السفر بقت أخطر على بعض المنتخبات من المنافسين نفسهم 😶🏆

We need a new law that bans presidents from having personal social media and posting shit like this. Bring back professionalism, please. Their socials should only be used to post about government updates. I cannot believe our current administration, which is full of adults, continues to post AI memes and videos. This country has become a joke because of Trump.

Common story:

Kid loves baseball. Decides to quit other sports & specialize in 8th grade.

Plays spring ball, summer travel ball, & fall ball. Private lessons over the winter. Ends up swinging/throwing 12 months straight.

Does this for 4 years.

48 months straight of the same back/arm stress.

And we wonder why so many HS players have Pars stress fractures and torn UCLs.

Now apply this to volleyball, golf, basketball, etc. We are breaking our kids’ bodies in pursuit of scholarships.

Athletes need an offseason. Especially when they’re 15.

[Michael Moreno @HealthcareREguy]

Is there a bigger racket than getting service done at a car dealership?

Dealership: You have to replace this part!

Me: Ok how much?

Them: $2500. Parts and labor are expensive. Parts have gone up since the tariffs.

Me: How much is the part?

Them: $150

Me: So you’re charging me $2350 for labor?! How long will it take?

Them: Yes. One hour or so.

That is criminal level activity!

HS Baseball Players ⚾️

I’ve been around this game a long time, and something’s changed...

We’re losing respect for the game.

• Chirping after every pitch.
• Celebrating routine plays like it’s Game 7
• Trying to embarrass opponents instead of beating them.

That’s not toughness. That’s insecurity. 💯

Somewhere along the way, being loud became more important than being good.

And the worst part? It’s being allowed.

When I came up…

• You showed up early.
• You handled your business.
• You played hard.
• You shut your mouth.
• If you had something to say…
you said it with performance.
• And if lines were ever crossed, the players took care of it.

The truth: 👇

• Baseball is hard.
• You’re going to fail.
• You’re going to struggle.
• The game doesn’t need more noise…
• It needs more respect.
• Nobody remembers who chirped.
• They remember who showed up.
• Who competed.
• Who handled adversity.
• Who left the game better than they found it.

Want to separate yourself?
Stop talking. Start working.

Respect the game.

💯⚾️

[OK Then @okaythenfuture]

The World Cup starts in 30 days and legit barely anyone cares.

In America, probably barely anyone knows the world’s biggest sport competition starts in a month.

This has been the worst rollout for the World Cup I have ever seen in my life.

It was a mistake to award it to Modern America.

It’s no longer a serious society.

[YIMBYLAND @YIMBYLAND]

The most extinct thing in the entire movie isn’t the public pools, the country fair, or block parties. Those all still exist.

It’s the idea of kids playing baseball just for fun. No trophies, no tournament, no parents, just play.

Travel sports has ruined a generation of kids.

[James A. Furey @JamesAFurey]

I’m sure people are getting sick of me repeating myself, but if a student chronically shows themselves incapable of behaving in a classroom in a way that is conducive to the group learning the should be removed. Permanently in some cases.

There is a sort of inversion of morality that has occurred in education systems in which we show the most care to the worst students and sacrifice the best on the off chance it will help them.

[Ryan Hammer🔨 @ryanhammer09]

We’ll never see anything like this in American sports….

York & Rochdale are playing to get promoted to League Two from *non league* footy

York needs 1+ point, Rochdale needs 3. Rochdale scores in the 95th to go up 1-0 but York score in the 102nd to get a point and get promoted and it’s absolute SCENES

[Zak Blair @coachzblair10]

Watching a HS game here in Ohio and I had to leave...

The things these kids are doing & screaming from the dugout are absurd. The crazier thing is the coaches/parents do nothing about it.

▪️Telling the other team to "miss it" on an infield pop up.

▪️Constantly swearing loud enough for everyone to hear.

▪️Getting out at 1B and yelling "F@&%" as they run past 1B.

▪️Heckling the pitcher while he is on the mound.

▪️Watched a kid walk from the 3B dugout all the way to RF.

▪️Multiple players arguing calls with umpires.

While these players spew all this classlessness and disrespect the coaches sit back and let the prisoners run the prison. The parents just watch and laugh because they think their son and his buddies are funny and it's just boys being boys.

All I see are coaches and parents that are afraid to step up and set a good example. Adults afraid to parent and lead these young men in the right direction.

How soft do you have to be to not confront a player about the actions above?

[Rae @ragefighthouse]

‘She was up until 3am on her phone’
‘I can’t get that phone away from him’
‘It’s all these things he’s seeing online’
‘She’s always on social media’

YOU ARE THE PARENT.

YOU. ARE. THE. PARENT.

[Kalon Fullerton @cowlonfull]

Is the USMNT good? No. But are the players likable? Also no. But do they at least seem like they care? Also no! But the tickets are 2,000 dollars and the head coach will yell at you if you don’t buy them

@MatchDCentral Championship teams when they come to Spurs' stadium

[WrongAgainBob @wrong27268]

@Oceanbreeze473 Public schools are good for kids who want to learn and work toward the next level in their lives and that's it. They push through the dumb or lazy kids because trying to get them to learn is fruitless because the kids don't care and their parents don't care.

if they nuke us can they make sure to do it in the morning i don’t wanna work all fucking day just to come home and get nuked

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

We said “No More Foreign Wars, No More Regime Change!” We said it on rally stage after rally stage, speech after speech. Trump, Vance, basically the entire admin campaigned on it and promised to put America FIRST and Make America Great Again.
My generation has been let down, abused, and used by our government our entire adult lives and our children’s generation is literally being abandoned.
Thousands and thousands of Americans from my generation have been killed and injured in never ending pointless foreign wars and we said no more. But we are freeing the Iranian people.
Please.
There are 93 million people in Iran, let them liberate themselves. But Iran is on the verge of having nuclear weapons.
Yeah sure.
We have been spoon fed that line for decades and Trump told us all that his bombing this past summer completely wiped it all out.
It’s always a lie and it’s always America Last. But it feels like the worst betrayal this time because it comes from the very man and the admin who we all believed was different and said no more.
We thought the victory won in 2024 would be finally time to put America First.
And we thought that meant the common American man and woman and their children.
Not the elites.
America has suffered and they don’t even care.
Hundreds of thousands of American small business owners lost their hard earned businesses during tyrannical covid lockdowns, that by the way, started under Trump with 15 days to slow the spread and continued under Biden and Democrats. There is no difference between them.
Vaccine injuries, deaths, delays and loss in our tax payer funded education, record high suicides, record high Big Pharma profits and ZERO accountability for anyone from the MAGA America First administration as they run off to start wars and the board of peace at the same time.
Create the crisis and the solution simultaneously and then build condos to profit. MAGA!
For years we demanded to release the Epstein files, demanding transparency and justice for thousands of victims, women and children, by the richest most powerful men in the world and we had to fight Trump himself to do it, even after we all campaigned on it. And not a single person has been arrested and likely won’t be, no accountability, no justice.
Instead, we get a war with Iran on behalf of Israel that will succeed in regime in Iran.
Another foreign war for foreign people for foreign regime change.
For what?
Does it lower our inflation that our government caused? Caused by BOTH Democrats AND Republicans with their decades of corrupt government spending that has enslaved us all in nearly $40 Trillion in debt and reduced the value of our dollar to nothing. No, war with Iran does not lower inflation and make cost of living affordable.
Does war with Iran fix our healthcare system and make health insurance affordable for Americans??
No war with Iran does not do that and the MAGA admin and Republicans aren’t even working on it in any serious way at all.
Does war with Iran stop AI from replacing your job? Nope.
Does war with Iran help you to be able to afford to buy a home? No, but you’ll see TikTok videos of nice penthouses when Gaza is rebuilt.
Does war with Iran help the mental health crisis in America or help the drug addiction pandemic in America? Nope.
Does war with Iran do anything to help American families stay together and survive? No, not at all.
But within hours of war with Iran it was reported approximately 40 innocent girls, school children, in Iran were killed by bombs from Israel.
And they don’t care, they killed thousands of innocent children in Gaza, and apparently our Pro-Peace administration doesn’t care either.
And, since they won’t solve America’s problems clearly they don’t care about our kids either.
Now, America is going to be force fed and gas lighted all the “noble” reasons the American “Peace” President and Pro-Peace administration had to go to war once again this year, after being in power for only a year.
Head-spinning, but maga.

[The Black Hokage @TheBlackHokage]

Unfortunate, but not surprised.

Fans waited over a decade & what did they get from a 55 billion dollar company?

A Soulless UNFINISHED microtransaction infested release that doesn’t hold a candle to the OG Skate games 🤦🏽‍♂️

[Collins🦋 @collinstimbela_]

A lot of you parents are going to be in for a rude awakening when your child is unable to keep a job because they were raised to believe rules don’t apply to them. Nobody is going to continuously give them grace and or correct their behavior. They are going to fire them and send them on their merry little way.

[beanie0597_2.0 @0Beanie05923291]

I have a student who is absent today because he “didn’t feel like getting up this morning”. He’s 9.

Parents, please stop giving your children the authority to make decisions that you should be making for them. If there are serious concerns about their school environment, address them. Otherwise, be the parent and make them get up and go to school.
