The Odyssey is going to make a bunch of money, win a bunch of awards and millions of people will love it. Hating it sight unseen because you want to be part of an edgy antiwoke movement spamming buzzwords and slurs in comment threads is just a miserable way to live.
THE TRUMP EFFECT: The USA just lost to Belgium in the World Cup Round of 16 by a score of 4-1, right after Trump personally called FIFA to clear star striker Balogun to play.
Sports fans are calling it the Trump curse.
He attended the Super Bowl and predicted a Chiefs win, but the Eagles blew them out.
He was there when the Commanders hosted the Lions and lost at home.
He watched from a suite as Miami fell in the College Football National Championship.
He sat in the owner’s suite when the Knicks snapped their huge playoff streak in NBA Finals Game 3.
And he attended the Ryder Cup where Europe topped the US team.
Funny how some teams get asked about football… and others get asked to explain the world.
Shoutout to the Iran team for carrying that weight.

Es cierto que hoy nos toca partir, pero nuestra tristeza no es por salir del Mundial, sino por dejar atrás a México y a su gente extraordinaria, que nos colmó de su calidez y nos recibió como héroes en su tierra. Nos vamos físicamente, pero nuestras almas se quedan allá… Todo nuestro amor, aprecio y respeto para ustedes, ¡pueblo de México!
None of the conditions were met, and Iran's football team bid farewell to the 2026 World Cup. Despite the obstacles created by the US government, the players played with great spirit.
We thank those who supported Iran in stadiums and in their hearts.❤️
Thank You Team Iran
You guys put on a fantastic performance despite all the hardship you were put through to participate in this World Cup.
The world has fallen in love with you and we look forward to seeing you again in four years.
God bless you all, love you Team Melli 🐆
