She’s a Black woman who is proud of her body, isn’t ashamed of having multiple public relationships, raps about sex, & testified against her abuser which led to him going to prison. They all want to “humble” her & punish her. Just like recently Joe Budden was saying she needed to be held accountable. But couldn’t really explain what for. Lol.
The 2026 World Cup had a major challenge with grass: FIFA retrofit 16 stadiums in Canada, Mexico and US to keep fields consistent for 48 teams and 104 matches.
It asked grass scientists at U of Tennessee and to design solution:
▫️they made a modular hybrid turf (95% grass / 5% synthetic fiber) that is easily rollable, transportable and installable
▫️each field has 20 million synenthic fibers sewn into dirt (grassroots intertwine with fibers to prevent field from tearing)
▫️all 11 stadiums in US host NFL teams…7 of those had to do special conversion of astroturf fields (Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Houston, LA, NY, Seattle)
▫️5 stadiums have a dome (eg. BC Place in Vancouver) and scientists developed special UV grow light machines to help maintain grass in those structures
▫️grass in Southern US and two Mexico locations (Monterrey, Guadalajara) need grass species for warm and humid temperatures (“Bermuda grass”)
▫️Northern US/Canada and Mexico City need grass for cooler climates (“Kentucky bluegrass”)
▫️scientists built special machines to test player foot impact and ball bouncing effect (reduce injuries and make sure ball movement consistent)
▫️grass sods we’re grown on plastic so they spread horizontally, making it easier to roll and transport

NBA fans pressured the league into putting a massive Larry O’Brien Trophy at center court and NBA Finals logos on both sides.
NHL fans need to do the same. There is NOTHING on or around the ice that would tell you that this is the Stanley Cup Final.
