@ECNSmartatX @SpaceCityWX I am fond and receptive to our visiting friends. However, in America we use freedom units. 🤣

I had a ton of fun writing this. Here’s a deep dive on the weather of the countries visiting Houston for the World Cup!

[Eric Berger @SpaceCityWX]

With the #WorldCup Houston leg kicking off on Sunday, @mattlanza takes a look at the different types of weather our visiting nations usually experience at home and how they compare to our weather here in HTown. Who can handle Houston's heat and HOUmidity: https://t.co/BUevMurxmm

What a disgrace.

[The Athletic | Football @TheAthleticFC]

A Somali referee who is due to officiate at the World Cup has been denied entry to the U.S. after “vetting concerns” emerged upon his arrival in Florida over the weekend.

Omar Artan arrived at Miami International Airport on a flight from Istanbul on Saturday but was barred from entering the country following a “routine” inspection, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) confirmed in a statement to The Athletic.

Artan, the 2025 Confederation of African Football men’s referee of the year, is one of 52 referees handpicked by world governing body FIFA for the tournament.

Just a hunch, but I think despite soooo many people (including me) that complain about longing for that 90s Jordan-Barkley-Magic, etc. era dopamine hit, that the NBA may be doing juuuust fine.

😍OTD 1974: Mike Schmidt hits a ball off a public address speaker hanging from the Astrodome roof, 117 feet up and 300 feet from home plate. He settles for a first-inning single off LHP Claude Osteen in the Phillies’ 12-0 win. #phillies

Today we focus in on the moisture coming out of the Pacific, across the Gulf, and into the Southern U.S. this weekend, as well as the heavy rain it may produce. We also take a look at the situation in the East Pacific as El Niño is beginning to flex. Read: https://t.co/CVRGGjmZx0

We know a lot about soccer. We know even more about grass.

[Rutgers University @RutgersU]

The grass at @FIFAWorldCup 2026™ is backed by Rutgers University's world-renowned Center for Turfgrass Science. Ten of the tournament's 16 official pitches will feature natural turfgrasses bred by university experts.

“Including the period before the ceasefire, he’s done it at least 37 times. That’s the number of times he’s said directly — in social media posts, public appearances and phone calls with the media — that a deal was nigh or claimed Iran was desperate to cut one.”

BREAKING: DHS just waived all environmental laws to blast border barriers and roads through Big Bend National Park.

This marks the first time in American history the feds have gutted dozens of laws to push industrial-level construction through a national park.

Courtside at MSG is funny because it’s like beloved former Knicks star from the ‘90s next to an insanely famous actor next to the CEO of a company that turns orphans into AI data center liquid coolant.
