@bbq_kc@Topbin90 No — it’s Bank of America Stadium, where Charlotte FC and the Carolina Panthers play. It will not host a World Cup match, just a friendly between USA-Senegal in about 30 minutes.
The reputation of the surface among players is not good.
If you live in NC, you're seeing tons of pollen, and might be struggling to breathe.
Here are some tips to help, plus one of my own—take a shower at night before you go to bed.
Gets rid of the pollen dust, keeps it off your pillow, and helps you sleep!

@ClownWorld My issue is using kids' names -- that's insane and completely unprofessional. I don't mind him calling out parents if they're being ridiculous but people who know that teacher could know those kids. Hopefully he was using random names and not real ones, but it didn't seem like it
The old Sycamore Brewing will open THIS SATURDAY as 'Club West Brewing' under new ownership by longtime Director of Brewery Operations Brad Bergman, per CBJ
I get that a lot of people don’t watch hockey. But please understand you’re wrong. Here’s the beginning 9 seconds of the last time team USA beat team Canada in the 4 nations tournament. Canada ultimately won the final against us in a rematch but the rematch of all rematches for Olympic GOLD goes down this Sunday. This is cinema. USA hasn’t won a gold medal in hockey since 1980 against the Russians. The game the movie “Miracle” was based on. Act accordingly. *eagle screech* 🇺🇸🏒🇨🇦
NEW: first on the scene and got video from a dashcam of Hornets star LaMelo Ball crashing into a grey Kia sedan about 30-45 minutes ago in Uptown Charlotte

Take 3 minutes today, amid the noise and din that often hardly matters in our lives, and listen to this revelation from James van der Beek.
h/t to my wife and @SlaterNFL for helping me stop and process what matters this morning
Ok. I was really caught off guard here. I did not expect my visceral reaction to this message from James Vanderbeek.
Do yourself a favor and listen. Just listen. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
RIP James, God speed🙏🏼
An AI slop Carolina Panthers fan page on Facebook made a post claiming a CMPD officer died in a crash because of a drunk driver while volunteering at the Super Bowl. It's not true. It has been shared hundreds of times.
Facebook data shows the page is primarily managed out of Vietnam. There are a lot of different pages like this on Facebook just putting out junk for monetization.
@toddakavincent@Tweeterpurg@espn@thelhughes Since all you guys are doing is going back and forth, let���s bring in a 3rd voice. Not mine — I want no part of this conversation lol — but here’s another take
https://t.co/mVipOvZewP
Ring paid somewhere between $8 and $10 million for a 30-second Super Bowl spot to tell 120 million viewers that their cameras now scan neighborhoods using AI.
The math is wild. Ring has roughly 20 million devices in American homes. Search Party is enabled by default. The opt-out rate on default settings in consumer tech is historically around 5%. So approximately 19 million cameras are now running AI pattern matching on anything that moves past your front door. Today the target is dogs. The same infrastructure already handles “Familiar Faces,” which builds biometric profiles of every person your camera sees, whether they know about it or not.
Ring settled with the FTC for $5.8 million after employees had unrestricted access to customers’ bedroom and bathroom footage for years. They’re now partnered with Flock Safety, which routes footage to local law enforcement. ICE has accessed Flock data through local police departments acting as intermediaries. Senator Markey’s investigation found Ring’s privacy protections only apply to device owners. If you’re a neighbor, a delivery driver, a passerby, you have no rights and no recourse.
This tells you everything about Amazon’s actual product. The customer paid for the camera. The customer pays the electricity. The customer pays the $3.99/month subscription. And Amazon gets a surveillance grid that would cost tens of billions to build from scratch, with an AI layer activated by default, and a law enforcement pipeline already connected.
They wrapped all of that in a lost puppy commercial because that’s the only version of this story anyone would willingly opt into.
