This guy summarizes the World Cup in the USA perfectly. They didn’t want to come here (Democrats) and now they don’t want to leave.
Wake up, America! We kinda rock. 🇺🇸🔥
This is the world we deserve. Not the one that the media and politicians use to divide us.
Maybe the most powerful thing about the World Cup isn’t who wins the trophy. It’s millions of people discovering that the stranger they were taught to fear turns out to be a friend they just hadn’t met yet. That’s the kind of thing that restores faith in humanity. ❤️🌎⚽
When I was 12 years old I’d wake up on a Saturday morning, watch some cartoons and pro wrestling, go outside and throw a rubber ball off the side of the house, get the guys in the neighborhood together for Wiffle Ball, go inside for Atari and snacks, ride my bike to Dairy Queen for a Mr. Misty, listen to Casey Kasem, flip on ESPN and watch sports with no social commentary, flip it over to MTV, which showed actual music videos, go back outside for more Wiffle Ball, and then think “Hey, it’s almost 3 pm.” Living my best life and had no fucking idea how good I had it.
You will not see a better sports video today:
Kolby Branch hits a HR for Georgia in his last ever college AB. His brother, on the other team, gets to celebrate with him as he rounds the bases with parents in attendance
What a moment for this family
As someone who’s been singing the National Anthem at rodeo events for over 20 years, I’ll just say….
There’s a way it was intended to be sung, without your own spin. This was 💯the way! Bravo!
🚨 Landon Donovan didn’t hold back on the state of U.S. soccer:
“2002 World Cup is the furthest the men have ever been… we have only won one knockout game in our history. That’s pretty alarming. We’re not developing players like the rest of the world.”
“The bigger problem is our youth soccer in this country is a disaster… It’s all about winning. The kids get left behind because the clubs want to make money, the coaches want to make money… and the kids don’t develop.”
On the post-16/17 pathway:
“If you’re 16, 17 and you haven’t made it, you kind of fall into this abyss.”
His bottom line:
“I want to give the game back to kids.”

Noah Shannon:
-Placed 1 bet for $10 on a women’s basketball game.
-Turned himself in.
-NCAA banned him for the season and ended his career
Brendan Sorsby:
-Over 2,000 bets placed.
-$90,000 in bets.
-Found eligible to play.
Make it make sense…
Hunter Dekkers 👿
• 366 bets
• ~$2,800 wagered
• One bet involving Iowa State football
• Lost entire season, NCAA eligibility, career
Brendan Sorsby 😇
• ~2,900 bets
• ~$90,000 wagered
• 40+ bets involving Indiana football
• Currently eligible after court injunction
Sorsby placed ~8x more bets and wagered ~32x more money than Dekkers…
The greatest postgame tradition in college sports… West Virginia is headed to Omaha!
Sidenote: I absolutely 1000% need to be apart of this live. To my West Virginia friends on here, does football do the same thing? Need to see it this season if possible
Just a bunch of toxically masculine Christian Nationalists walking directly into Nazi machine gun fire to help save the world.
This is yet another reason why I will always be proud to be an American.
Dear @WhiteHouse, my name is Rodney Smith Jr., founder of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service in Huntsville, Alabama. Through our 50 Yard Challenge, over 6,000 kids across the country have signed up to mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and single parents. With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year and me also being born on July 4th, I wanted to humbly ask if a few kids from our program and myself could travel to Washington, D.C. to help mow the White House lawn for this historic celebration.
More than anything, I want these kids to see how a simple act of service something as ordinary as mowing a lawn for someone in need can lead to extraordinary places. What better lesson in community service than showing them that helping others can take them all the way to our nation’s capital? I’d also love to bring my American flag-themed mower in hopes that the President might sign it, so I can later auction it off and donate 100% of the proceeds to a nonprofit supporting veterans. It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to highlight the importance of service, patriotism, and the impact young people can have when they choose to make a difference. 🇺🇸
He was told they couldn't find his diploma until his sister, whom he hadn't seen in over a year because she was on military duty, walked out carrying it.
This father had never missed any of his son’s baseball games in his life.
He had to miss this tournament because his best friend was getting married and he was a groomsman.
He woke up at 3:30AM and drove
100 MPH that Sunday morning to try to and at least make the Sunday games after missing the
Saturdays games. And, of course this was the only tournament all year that his son’s team lost their first game on Sunday, so he didn't make it in time because the first game was at 8 and there was no second game.
When he pulled up his son saw him and he ran full speed and jumped into his arms and wouldn’t let go. Dad said his son told him, “daddy, you can’t ever miss again. I love you so much. Not having you with me this weekend made me feel so empty, please never miss again, I'm so thankful your my daddy!” 🥹
His wife filmed that video. ❤️
I remember those days well. Speeding like a bat out of hell to make it on time. I have always made my kid’s games and activities. It’s what I live for. And the few times I had to miss, I felt like I let them down.
What a great father he is. That boy is fortunate. 💯
Do you remember this feeling? Trying your hardest to make it to one of their activities and just feeling sad that you couldn’t be there?
