Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?

Because we gave them that L in 1776.

"But a goal will not count if a player is offsides."

"When is a player offsides?"

"Whenever anything exciting happens."

[Jim Geraghty @jimgeraghty]

"And they will play a game, divided into two halves."

"And how much time is in each half?"

"Nobody knows."

[Dan Clark @DanClarkSports]

It is not all about Bobby Bonilla today - there are numerous other annual payments being made...

It's the Team of Rivals Podcast, but not really.

What started as a Cubs/Brewers recap quickly spiraled into something else entirely when @ToR_Ron75 seized control of the show and turned it into a full-blown soccer breakdown.

This week:
⚾ The Cubs rolled into Wrigley North and suddenly, the vibes shifted 👀
⚾ Brewers fans got big mad after a Team of Rivals weekend takeover
📺 Is MLB actively working against Ron? (the evidence is mounting…)
📺 The absolute mess that is MLB blackouts vs. how MLS(!) is doing it right
⚽ World Cup fever hits the U.S., and it’s changing how the world sees us 🇺🇸
⚽ @WentworthEsq joins Ron’s Soccer Minute… which becomes Ron’s Soccer Hour
⚽ Transfer window chaos, tactics, and why soccer might actually be winning right now

💥 Plus:
🏟️ Stadium debates (Miller Park = airplane hangar?)
🤼 @ToR_Elliott casually being a state champion and not telling anyone for almost a decade

@DMC_Ryan @DbacksOnSI As a Cubs fan I feel you.

[OptaSTATS @OptaSTATS]

There have been over 5 million total 18-game spans by players in MLB's modern era.

In none of them did a player have as many hits, doubles, triples, homers & steals as the @Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong over his last 18 games:

34 hits
5 doubles
2 triples
9 home runs
6 stolen bases

[Jack O'Neill @Jack2LOneill]

Some advice if you run into "these guys"
1. Don't shake hands
2. Don't attend a feast if invited
3. Don't go down creepy hallways
4. Don't listen to any of them named "Michael"
5. Bring a P90

“I don’t know how much longer I can do this.”

That’s where Pete is with the Cubs right now.

This week on Team of Rivals:
⚾ Panic meter is climbing
⚾ 2008 vibes are creeping back
⚾ Cardinals… somehow hanging around
⚾ MLB blackout rules are STILL broken

It’s mid-June and things are getting weird.

Should have put Tupac in Alien Isolation 2.

@XBOX For the love of god. Using my ROG XBOX Ally X in the car while on vacation and want to play a little 007 First Light. Boom. You need an update. THE ENTIRE GAME! Please figure this out. I shouldn’t have to download an entire game for an update.

[Fandom Pulse @fandompulse]

Doom and Age of Empires creator Sandy Petersen blasts Amazon over their handling of Stargate:

"1) get handed a massively popular IP that spans 17 years of successful shows."

"2) realize it has millions of loyal fans, desperate for more. They are now in their 40s and 50s, flush with money. Eager to teach their kids & grandkids about Stargate."

"3) you could start with this. You are already three steps up the ladder to huge success. The fans will evangelize it, if you don't wreck the IP. Don't believe it? Look how the fans evangelized Battlestar Galactica after its 30 year hiatus. And the initial Dr Who reboot after 15 years."

"4) cancel the project because you want a "new take" that will eliminate all the loyal fans and turn them into bitter enemies."

"It's like an ancient Greek play about hubris."

Why are corporate execs like this?

[Tom Jurassic @Tom_Jurassic]

You've got to be kidding me. They were doing all the right things, getting the fanbase engaged and excited, and building something which sounded like a new take that would please old and new fans alike.

Huge mistake, Amazon.
