The average life expectancy of a new Russian recruit—from arrival at a training ground to death in a combat zone—lies somewhere between 10 days and three weeks. Once sent onto the battlefield, they survive an average of 20 to 35 minutes. @peterfrankopan https://t.co/W3UhBerdH0

@ShamrockRovers @picolopes @fcfcomunica @FIFAWorldCup So proud of him.

Amazing video sent to us via Jack Hennessy who was in Houston last night to see Cape Verde make history and reach the World Cup Round of 32.

Jack had a tricolour with him and got it to Pico after the game. Here's what he said happened;

"I live and work in Houston. Sat front row with a tricolor. We made friends with one of the photographers there and asked him to throw our flag to Pico"

Fair play to Pico for copping the flag was the wrong way around as well😅

As Pico himself said, he's playong for two countries at this World Cup.

Pico Lopes fights back the tears as he reads an emotive letter from Shamrock Rovers boss Stephen Bradley. FIFA 'Letters That Unite'.

Even though I had the sound off I just knew @JeremyClarkson was talking about @RichardHammond whilst reviewing a #Bugatti

This putting lesson from Tiger Woods has improved my putting 50%.

(From very bad to kinda bad.)

Somehow the way he presents the idea of how the putter hits the ball just clicked with me.

I used to have a longer follow through when putting. After this, I changed and my putting instantly improved.

@Top100Rick Didn’t Rahm hit Wyndham yesterday?

Golf is actually pretty simple when you break it down like this. 🤣

Here's a quick lesson in honor of all of the PGA professionals in the field this week.

I still think this is the most outrageous shot in the history of snooker.

RFK Jr: "A Democratic senator claimed it's mathematically impossible to have a drug drop by 600%. I said, 'Well, if the drug was $100 and it raises to $600, that would be a 600% rise. If it drops from $600 to $100, that's a 600% savings.'"

No greater metaphor for this entire week than Pete Hegseth quoting a fake Bible verse from the movie Pulp Fiction to Pentagon staff.
