With the way Belgium is dominating the United States, we may not get to see Leonard Fournette’s long lost brother Lukaku play many minutes for the Belgians. That dude is a physical specimen like my boy, @Fournette7heis#WorldCup#Belgium#UnitedStatesVsBelgium#USA
To the Americans:
I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.
And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:
You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.
This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.
Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.
This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.
But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.
This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.
And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:
Thank God for the United States.
Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.
Long may your admirable country dominate the world.
Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.
May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.
Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.
Thank God for the USA.
Happy 250th.

@ClownBasket I’ve never seen it either. Been telling everyone how impossible this shot is. Not even sure he could do it again 1 out of 10 tries. It is crazy skills to pull that off !!!
Amazing work by this guy breaking down one of most difficult shots I’ve ever seen pulled off. He did it on the World Cup stage for USA like there was no pressure. Seriously I’m still in awe Tillman pulled it off
Will Clark on why he won’t coach:
“People ask me why I don’t get into coaching or get into managing and all that, I am not going to pat you on the back and tell you you’re doing a good job when you’re hitting .220 and you strikeout 100 times. You actually suck. I’m gonna tell you that you suck. I’m going to tell you to make a fucking adjustment and if you don’t make an adjustment, you’re going to the minor leagues and somebody else is going to go take your spot. Sorry, that’s the way the fucking game goes. This is a big boy game. Not a little boy game. And you have to have fucking thick skin. If you don’t have thick skin, get out the way because I’m gonna fucking steamroll you.”
🚨🇺🇸 Zlatan Ibrahimović & Thierry Henry praise Mauricio Pochettino after USA 2-0 Bosnia & Herzegovina
🗣️ Zlatan Ibrahimović: “People will remember the goals, the red card, the free kick and the saves. I will remember the coach. When your team goes down to ten men in a World Cup knockout match, panic usually enters the stadium. It never entered this American team. That tells me one thing—Pochettino prepared them for every situation before the first whistle.”
🗣️ Thierry Henry: “Exactly. What impressed me wasn’t just the result, it was the structure. The United States pressed Bosnia high from the start, forced mistakes, and created enough chances to be out of sight before halftime. Even after the red card, they didn’t abandon their identity. They became more compact, protected the central spaces, trusted Matt Freese, and still looked dangerous on the counter.”
🗣️ Zlatan Ibrahimović: “That’s coaching. You don’t become defensive because you’re scared—you become organised because you’re intelligent. Bosnia had more of the ball after the sending-off, but they rarely looked like a team that knew how to hurt the United States. Every player knew his job.”
🗣️ Thierry Henry: “And look at the details. Christian Pulisic was given the freedom to drift and connect attacks, Balogun stretched the back line before the red card, Tillman found the moments to arrive between the lines and then produced a world-class free kick, while the back four defended with discipline. That’s not luck. That’s a coach putting his players in positions where their strengths can win the game.”
🗣️ Zlatan Ibrahimović: *“So far, Pochettino has been spot on in this tournament. He has built a team that knows when to attack, when to suffer, and when to finish the job. In knockout football, that’s more valuable than beautiful football. If the United States keep showing this mentality, nobody will want to face them.”

@1045espn At the game. We were literally talking about this exact game last Friday. It was so crazy how much faster and bigger our guys were. It was the Honey Badger’s coming out party. I’ll never forget Mingo at 6’5” 240 lbs chasing down Lamichael James like it was nothing.
