Which, this is another opportunity to remind people that the English "billion" is "1000 million" in Spanish. The Spanish "billion" is equivalent to "trillion" in English. It's like it's set up to mess everyone up forever
Translating numbers between Spanish and English is so confusing. With tournaments Spanish refers to the number of games, English the number of teams. I'm used to English "round of 16" as "Octofinals" in Spanish.
But Round of 32 is kicking my ass. It's 'round of 16' in Spanish.
"Octofinals" is at least aligned with "quarterfinals" and "semifinals."
The Round of 32 is new this year and every time I talk with my dad about it, it takes us a second to figure out which round we are talking about since my head thinks 32 and his 16 for the same one.
It's the soccer pitch looking cleaner than a football field sure but people are underplaying how good these stadiums look with the advertising covered up. Everything looks so fresh!
๐๐ฒ๐ฝ Raรบl Jimรฉnez is a true fighter.
โข 6 years ago, Raรบl Jimรฉnez suffered a life-threatening skull FRACTURE after a horrific collision against Arsenal.
โข Doctors later told him it was a MIRACLE he survived.
โข He spent around 9 months out of action recovering before making his return to football.
โข When he came back, he had to wear a protective head guard/casque for the rest of his career.
โข Today, he scored at the World Cup in front of his home crowd in Mexico, scoring his first WC goalโฆ And he was in TEARS when he scored.
More than just a goal. More than just a game. โฝ๏ธโค๏ธ
Seattle centering indigenous peoples in our world cup media packages is so nice and refreshing. Having the Puyallup paddling past the trophy with the skyline behind it is just beautiful and it's us, our region, our history, and our present.
It's World Cup season so I gotta jump in and point out that this is less than the number of people who watched the 2014 World Cup Final and just barely more than watched the 2022 World Cup Final on US tvs
Welcoming the Red Devils to our home ๐ค
In partnership with the @Puyallup_Tribe and @FWC26Seattle, Connie McCloud shared a land acknowledgment and gifted handmade necklaces to our guests ahead of Belgium's first training session!
Have to keep saying aloud that the Boeing Imax couldn't play 70mm anyway to keep me sane as I think about the masterpiece we are missing out on in Seattle without a true Imax screen ๐ซ
FOLKS... There are TWO 70mm versions of THE ODYSSEY coming to theaters.
โข 5-perf 70mm
โข 15-perf IMAX 70mm
Make sure you're looking up the right format at the right location when buying tickets.
Ummmmmmm today I learned that Puss in Boots is a real fairy tale character??? I should know better than to assume Shrek invented anything but I was so sure he was a character written for that
Just sitting here remembering the fucking YouTube Wemby highlights I would watch thinking to myself "why is YouTube showing me highlights of some teenage French kid??" Cause that kid just pushed his team into the NBA Finals in his 3rd year!
