@iamtrask @dieworkwear Pretending that art and creativity is gatekept is so pathetic. Most people start with a pen and paper

India just qualified for the quarter-finals of the AVC Asian Men's Volleyball Championship in Fukuoka Japan, keeping them in the Top 8 in Asian rankings and in the mid 40s in World Rankings, a far cry from the depths of around 130 they had hit a few years ago.
Encouraging performances from the team, ably coached by Dragan Mihailovic.
Dragan came in 2019, but lasted only six months before he was moved on by the VFI after wanting to have a larger say in the players picked for him, and returned only in 2024 thanks to the international federation, FIVB and IOA.
He was again sidelined early this year, only to be brought back just a month before the AVC Cup after players complained that the coaches who had taken over from him were using training and athlete performance and recovery techniques from the 1980s. That team took a bronze in the AVC Cup in Ahmedabad.
Its fabulous to see Dragan and the boys doing well, but I just can't help thinking how good we could have been had we had Dragan at the helm building this team for the 5 years he was out.
That, in short, is the heartbreak of Indian sport.

@TheAthleticFC Man the Athletics's twitter content has been absolute nonsense these days. Saying something like Barcelona rarely beats them to the world's best players when these two teams have been involved in each other's transfers since the time of Kuba and Di Stefano just makes you look bad

Infantino was able to act as he did because he had many enablers; people who kept quiet on many real issues because it suited them and helped either them or their allies to amass wealth or power or influence. Some of those enablers will now seek to replace him.

[AC Milan @acmilan]

La Storia del Milan è in lacrime per la scomparsa di Franco Baresi. Il suo esempio e la sua profondità saranno, per sempre come la sua maglia numero 6, parte integrante e fondamentale del DNA e del cammino di tutto il Club. Le condoglianze che AC Milan porge alla famiglia tutta di Franco Baresi sono le stesse che ogni tifoso rossonero fa a sé stesso in un'ora così dura.

The entire history of AC Milan is in tears following the passing of Franco Baresi. His example and integrity will be forever etched into the Club's DNA, just as his iconic number 6 shirt is. The condolences AC Milan extends to Franco Baresi's family at such a difficult time are shared by every Rossonero, who feels this loss as their own.

Hang that game in the British Museum because Ghana have been absolutely robbed

The World Cup is exposing an uncomfortable truth about international relations: citizens of countries in the Global South face systemic discrimination in visa and immigration procedures.

Lewis Hamilton says there should be a limit to how much wealth one person can have

"One of the things that I struggle with every day is that there is such a disparity between the wealthy and the poor”

"When you drive around LA there's still so many people living on the streets. You shouldn't be able to have billions"

"I think there should be a limit to how much you can have because there's enough to go around for everyone”

@plasmatacos @DevinLoree I personally think of him in this argument as "illiterate"

[Barclays Women's Super League @BarclaysWSL]

A legacy defined not just as a former player, but now on the touchline as a manager, Casey Stoney MBE will officially be inducted to the #BarclaysWSL Hall of Fame.

Stoney created a playing legacy as a true great across her stints at Arsenal, Charlton, Chelsea, Lincoln and finally Liverpool. Her impact as a player was huge, and her skillset moved effortlessly from the pitch to the dugout.

Now heading up the Canadian women’s national team, Stoney’s impact on the women’s professional game has been and continues to be profound, ensuring her name is firmly embedded in the league’s history books. ✨
