@Fan_Prspective dude i'd take like x-factor or even some xforce squads over the avengers, let alone the xmen. forge alone is capable of designing weapons that neutralize everyone except maybe thor but still forge probably figures out a way to separate him from mjolnir.
Asked Jasmine Crockett last night in St. Louis if she thinks James Talarico can turn Texas blue this fall.
“I don't know,” she said.
She doesn’t buy the polls, saying they’ve historically overstated Democrats’ prospects in Texas. “I watch money.”
“When I look at the money, if Republicans start spending money in Texas, then I'll be convinced. But right now, national Republicans decided they wanted to dump money into North Carolina, as well as Georgia. That's where they're fighting, and national Democrats have not decided to dump money into Texas either... I look at: where does the NRSC stand? Where does DSCC stand? Right now, neither one are investing, which tells me that their internals are saying the same thing. So it looks like status quo. I won't get on the ground to really start to feel it until maybe end of September, October, as I start to dig into which races I'm going to help out in, the races that I really feel like we can win.”
@bodhisappho@aashishshah@ettingermentum i am not saying he needed rest. i am saying he knows his legs are glass and protected himself. his legs can't hold up in a month long tournament and the us needs to build around other guys if u can't rely on him to be fit at the end. little more nuanced than he needed rest.
@bodhisappho@aashishshah@ettingermentum pulisic WAS resting. he left poch's first camp early for load management. he skipped the gold cup because he was afraid his legs wouldn't hold up with the physicality of a full tournament and he was clearly right to fear that. can't rely on him to last a tournament now or 4 years
It's not a competitive market. That's why it's so expensive. When one firm owns the leagues, the teams, the tournaments, the facilities, the apparel, and the tech, families aren't customers choosing a product. They're captives choosing between ransom payments and their kids being left out of the game entirely.
So who pays for free soccer? Same answer as who pays for national parks. We've called youth sports a national priority for 70 years — Title IX, the Amateur Sports Act, executive orders from Eisenhower to Trump. We just never funded it. Private equity filled the voic, and now families pay $40 billion a year for a luxury good that should be a public one.

¡TREMENDO GOLAZO! Firma un zurdazo dentro del área para empatar el duelo ante Egipto.
To the Dems who see DSA as the worst thing in the world: this is what happens when you don’t have a real organization to mediate people’s rage and anger into something sustainable and productive. You don’t known how good you have it that they’re taking charge now.
