@RichardTheodo15@evanhill Soccer is the 3rd most played sport in the US amongst youth behind basketball and football. It's doing just fine. But with only one primary ref to cover 22 players in constant motion, missed calls are a much larger part of the game.
@66cjg@midwestern_ope Yeah we really don't know why Milwaukee got all of those natural sand beaches while Chicago got both sand and concrete beaches. It's a mystery of nature.
@MichaelRedd_ Clubs thrive when they convince people that they're necessary to make the high school team. If high schools expanded their programs, clubs would become of lesser influence.
@Michael_Cerami His stat line for the season is surprisingly excellent so maybe this is what motivates him. But it sure feels like he's trying to reinvent himself as the Dennis Rodman of baseball by being an instigator. He's the common denominator in all of these scuffles.
@BenVolin It would have been great to see him play, but I'm also not sure it would have mattered. Not sure anyone is stopping France. So dangerous in so many ways. Norway fans won the day though. So much fun to watch them. Soccer: France> Norway. Fans: Norway>France.
@danorlovsky7 Parents naturally try to shape their kids to be what they want them to be. It's easy for the parents because it makes the kids go down roads they themselves went down so outcomes are more predictable. But it may not be what your kids want. Let them go down different roads.
@AdamKinzinger I appreciate listening to you but I don't agree. Explain to me how your voice is more effective while not being in Congress than when you were. You're effectively a social media influencer now. How is this ultimately better? (And to be clear, I'm on your team).
@MiddleEastG@SawyerMerritt@Starlink Exactly. It's not simply a question of if Starlink can offer coverage. What they really are seeking here is a legal monopoly.
@RepToddWarner@realDonaldTrump This is a good time to bring up my life rule: Never wear another living man's name on your back. It was meant to apply to sports jerseys but I guess it now needs to expand to politics.
