🚨FIFA “forgot” to sanction:
➡️ Bellingham for hitting Valentín Barco
➡️ Pickford for grabbing his genitals in front of the Argentine fans
➡️ Hassan, Egypt's coach, for making a false racism accusation
➡️ Borja Iglesias for hitting Cristian Romero.
Bellingham literally slapped an Argentina player in the back of the head and walked away with no suspension. Ronaldo has had bans reduced/suspended. Yet Paredes gets TEN games and Molina gets SEVEN.
But somehow we’re still supposed to believe Argentina is the team FIFA “favors”? 😭 Be serious. If you’re going to punish violent conduct, at least apply the same standard to everyone.
🇮🇹 A 1,700-year-old skull just went viral.
It belonged to Saint Agatha, the patron saint of Catania in Sicily, who was martyred around the year 251.
On August 17 they marked the 900th anniversary of her relics returning from Constantinople.
The skull had been temporarily removed for restoration from its famous silver-gilt bust.
During the ceremony, it was placed back inside while Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s Secretary of State, bowed and kissed the relic in traditional Catholic veneration.

This tweet from argentinian still echoing in my head until now
I really love this tweet...It’s pure poetry ✍️📝
In the famous folktale collection, One Thousand and One Nights, Scheherazade faces daily execution. Each night she invents a vivid tale ending on a cliffhanger, so the king spares her one more sunrise. She buys time purely through storytelling.
#MESSI did the same at the 2026 World Cup. Facing elimination every round, he authored a new magical chapter in each match...record-breaking hat-tricks, late comebacks against Cape Verde and Egypt, the dramatic rescue versus England...keeping Argentina alive day after day until final.
The trophy stayed with Spain though, yet he had already stretched the story as far as possible. Like Scheherazade, he delayed the end with genius.
That's what make this tweet is genius 🤗
The analogy is perfect 💯👌
Jude’s face at the start of this clip is so endearing. After > 1year of the media trying to write him off & make him feel like he doesn’t belong, hearing the whole stadium sing “Hey Jude” hits different.
The realization that maybe… just maybe… 🏴 has a place for him after all.
🚨 The TRUE Video of the Year is Shakira’s “Dai Dai”! Not only is it the most-watched music video of the year across digital platforms, with over 830 MILLION views, but it’s also a global phenomenon. And obviously, we already knew Shakira wouldn’t be nominated for Video of the Year simply because she’s a LATINA woman! #VMAs
We’re deeply disappointed in the @VMAs!
Gue harus akuin, pergerakan 🇻🇳 Vietnam akhir-akhir ini emang bikin takjub. Proyek PVF Stadium (80.000 penonton) dan Tron Dong Stadium (135.000 penonton) ini bukti nyata kalau ambisi mereka bukan main-main. Nggak cuma sekedar bangun fasilitas olahraga, tapi ini sinyal kuat kalau mereka serius mau naik kelas jadi negara maju.
Sementara kita masih ribut sama drama rumput lapangan 🫠

Robin asks Chopper to go to Biblo because she has noticed something.
And Bilbo tells Chopper something that leaves him shocked....
We do not know what Biblo said, but Chopper appears to be very shocked.
In the big 4 American sports, the best players are in one place.
- NFL players play in the NFL.
- NBA players play in the NBA.
Soccer is different.
Some of the best players in the world play in England, some play in Spain, still others in Germany, Italy or France.
There's no single "best league." The elite talent is spread across competitive leagues and clubs around the world.
That's why people love Champions League.
And that's why American soccer fans follow multiple leagues at once. A fan can follow MLS, the Premier League, and Liga MX - all at the same time.
For brands, this changes everything:
You're not reaching one unified audience. You're reaching fans whose attention is split across leagues, countries, and continents.
That fragmentation is what most brands struggle to understand.
And it’s one of the primary reasons I launched @NameAndNumber - to help brands navigate one of the most challenges fan bases on all of sports.
Incredible historical ignorance. The bible was in Latin because Latin WAS the widely held language in Western Europe. The church was primarily concerned with heretical and inaccurate translations and published their own vernacular version.
It's been one month since the World Cup ended, and looking back at it now, it feels surreal.
I think I speak for a lot of people when I say I genuinely miss it.
What a special time...

Morocco 🇲🇦 had one of the largest numbers of travelling fans at the 2026 World Cup.
They travelled farther than any other team, with an average distance of 6,750 km to host cities across North America.
Hundreds of thousands of fans from Morocco and global diaspora networks transformed stadiums into "home" games.
An electric atmosphere in Boston Moroccan and French supporters brought to the tournament before their massive quarter-final match
