.@POTUS: "From the Scotland fans who took over the streets of Boston last month, to the Argentinian supporters who cheered on Messi...our first ally, France, winning in Philadelphia on July 4...it's been a true honor for Americans to share our magnificent country with the world."

[MC @CrewsMat10]

Messi was doing all of these against MLS defenders, and everyone clowned him. Now he’s doing it against top Premier League players on the biggest stage at 39.

SPEAK NOW MF’S😭😭

Thank you to the @NJBPU for adding linear generators to the state's Combined Heat & Power and Fuel Cell (CHP-FC) Program. This is a signal that New Jersey sees on-site power generation as core infrastructure, not just a nice-to-have.

For NJ businesses facing rising costs and declining reliability from the grid, this program's incentives provide substantial cost savings to address these challenges with innovative and sustainable technologies such as the KARNO™ Power Module.

It's great to see policy and innovation advancing side-by-side.

A college economics professor stated that he had once failed an entire class. That class insisted that socialism is functional and that no one should be poor and no one rich, that everyone is equal...

The teacher told them, "OK, we will do an experiment on socialism in this group.

All grades will be averaged, and everyone will get the same grade, so no one will fail and no one will get a 10."

After the first test, the grades were added up and divided by the number of students, and everyone got an 8.

The students who studied intensively were upset, but those who studied less were overjoyed.

As the second test approached, the students who had studied a little learned even less, and those who had studied more intensively told themselves that they also wanted a "handout", so they also studied less.

The average of the second test was 6.

When the third test was given, the average score was 4. To the great surprise of all the students, they all failed.

The teacher told them that socialism will eventually fail because when half the population sees that they cannot work, because the other half will take care of them, and when the half that worked realizes that there is no point in working anymore, because others are the beneficiaries of their labor, then that is the end of any nation
The story may be a fable not a fact but the moral is real
Get it?

He was burning alive, yet he kept re-entering the burning Bradley Fighting Vehicle until all six soldiers and the Iraqi interpreter were safe. Burns covered 72% of his body. His first words were, ‘How are my boys?’ He died three weeks later. It took 16 years for him to receive the Medal of Honor. HIS NAME IS SERGEANT FIRST CLASS ALWYN C. CASHE, NEVER FORGET!!!

Erling Haaland has returned to Norway, and it looks like he brought home a $750 Whiskey Raccoon from Wild Bill's Western Store in Dallas, Texas. What an authentic piece of American culture.

I’ve never been a Soccer fan but WOW I’ve watched most of the tournament and this World Cup has amazed me. Here are some things I’ve realized about the sport:

1.) Soccer is wildly physical. These players push, shove, and beat the shit out of each other & a lot of it goes unnoticed by the refs. You gotta be extremely durable to thrive on the pitch

2.) So much theater. These guys sell being “hurt” better than some of my peers in the WWE

3.) Penalty kicks are fkn insane. PK’s gotta be the most exciting/fucked thing in all of sports. Imagine being a goal keeper?? Soccer goes from team sport to individual sport QUICKLY, probably a mental nightmare for the athletes who lose on behalf of an entire country from a tiny mistake

4.) The referees can completely screw the game, the players, and entire nations with one call. That sucks

5.) This event may be the closest thing to world unity. All eyes on these athletes on the biggest stage in the world. Superstars are made. Careers forever changed

New fan 🙋🏼‍♂️

My take on this whole Portugal generation:

It's all about timing in these things. Getting the right set of players, with the right star, managed by the right coach, at the right context. But things never truly aligned for us.

Ronaldo was sandwiched between 2 great generations. When he was too young to be the best, the team was great. When he was too old to do a carry job, the team was great. When he was in his prime, for over a decade, the team was mediocre.

We always believed we could win big tournaments because of Ronaldo, but it was sort of a blind hope. A team whose second most influential player is a Nani, a João Moutinho, or a Pepe at times, can't be a favorite to win a World Cup, or even a Euros. Ronaldo was playing at such a level, touching unprecedented levels of dominance in the Champions League, that it made us believe we could always win. But, again, it was blind hope. From 2008 until 2018, the rest of our squad didn't have enough talent or spark to be the favorites to win anything.

But the blind hope has a reason to it. A solid team who has the best player in the world has a better chance of winning than every very good team whose best player is not quite the best in the world. And that's what worries me about our next generation.

Most World Cup wins have been about a story that feels right, led by a historic player (Messi, Mbappe, Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo Nazario, Zidane…). Portugal had 6 attempts at writing that story, and we fumbled all of them, for different reasons. Sometimes we went with the wrong coach (2010, 2022, 2026), sometimes the team wasn't good enough (2014, 2018).

So now what for us?

When a team wins the World Cup without having a true star, it's always out of such collective superiority that the run just makes sense (Germany, Spain, Italy the most recent examples).

Still, these were stacked squads. Will we have a stacked squad in 2030? 2034? 2038? We can never be sure. Belgium doesn't seem like having another golden generation anytime soon, neither does Italy, neither does the Netherlands, even Germany's future looks uncertain… international football is unpredictable.

For this post-Ronaldo chapter, the coach will probably be Jorge Jesus (since Mourinho took the Madrid job). No stars, no media, no hype. Just a team trying to play good football. I'm more curious than excited. But I think we will keep on having some good moments. Our era as favorites is over, and we begin another era as dark horses.

Conclusion, on Ronaldo's era with Portugal:
It didn't feel like a bust, it didn't feel like a fumble. Sometimes it felt like we underachieved, but we had some really great moments. We are still without a World Cup, but we saw our country win thinhs for the first time ever, and the culture in Portuguese football was changed forever. 2016 was more than just a trophy, it was a statement of change.

We could have won a World Cup, in the end we didn't… maybe some day. Regardless, we saw history be made.

At least we can tell our grandchildren we witnessed this era.

This Portugese midfield has to be my biggest disappointment of the entire World Cup... What do you mean Bruno, Vitinha and Neves are completely useless together? How can this happen? How are they so in-effective?

Is it tactics? Is it lazyness? Nerves? Who is to blame? 🇵🇹

Erling Haaland was so fascinated by American culture during his visit to Texas for the World Cup that he couldn't stop talking about how kind everyone was and even started using a Southern accent to fit in 😭

he also purchased a custom cowboy hat and tried branding himself
