And when this one finally comes, you fucking crush it with your kids looking on.
Imagine what that feels like.
There are a lot of ways to teach your children to keep going.
Letting them watch you do it has to be one of the best.
Absolute legend! 🫡
They didn’t bother anyone. Just a group of desi college kids living the American dream by simply enjoying their college team comeback and win an incredible game.
But we live in a world where platforms are run on racist comments to stoke fear, anger and create division.
No. 22 Houston put up its highest point total in 36 YEARS in its 77-6 win vs. Southern 🔥
The Cougars last scored 70+ when David Klingler set the NCAA record with 11 TDs in a game 🏈
“Athletic Club Boise have demonstrated what can happen when a club truly connects with its community.”
Athletic Club Boise will move from USL League One to the USL Championship next year. The stadium will also be expanded to 10,000 seats.
USMNT legend Kasey Keller is part of the ownership group, and they only started playing this year.
But with the club getting such strong support, they’ve been rewarded with a move up.
“Athletic Club Boise have demonstrated what can happen when a club truly connects with its community,” said Jeremy Alumbaugh, President of the USL Championship.
“The support and energy surrounding the club in Boise have been remarkable, and that strong foundation makes this a natural next step.”
Their current home currently hosts 7,247 people. 3,000 seats will be added before the start of the 2027 season.
Athletic Club Boise set a USL League One record with more than 6,000 season ticket sales before its first match and have gone on to sell out every home game.
What an exciting time for soccer fans in Idaho. 👏🏾
Thank you @PatMcAfeeShow
