Euros keep pretending that somehow America's greater capacity for assimilation is just due to the different immigrants we get. Meanwhile, Lawrence, Kansas, is maybe two weeks away from sending a battalion of volunteers for the Algerian efforts to aid the Sahrawi.
World Cup teams have mandated “community sessions” that are mainly exclusive ticketed events.
Algeria’s community session was a real one, where the community was invited and now, children in the KC metro get to say they’ve played with international soccer stars.

Last night, Karl-Anthony Towns recorded his 18th consecutive game with a positive plus-minus. It is the longest such streak in the postseason since the @NBA began tracking play-by-play data in 1997.
