These were the glory days of my NFL support

[Jeff McDevitt @JeffMcDev]

This is the most beautiful deep ball in NFL history, and I don’t think it’s particularly close

Ex-players are manifestly ill equipped to be having this conversation.

"I'd be looking at Hugh McCluggage as almost a fine... Players have got to stop playing for free kicks in tackles."

“I’m sure Cam Rayner in his career at this footy club will make up for that one… over and over again.”

I have no idea what I just watched, but that might be the best goal celebration of all time... 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Always think about your logo in a one color versus multi color format.

BDO, the accounting firm who sponsors Billy Horschel- who led #TheOpen just lost out on a lot of search traffic to…ahem, LBDO 🫣

The greatest home there is

[Roger Boylan @BoylanRoger]

Patrick Leigh Fermor in his home in Kardamyli, Greece, in 2008, five years after his wife, Joan, died. He lived alone until his death in 2011 at age ninety-six.

@arisroussinos Love the historical breakdown of the meal. Thank you

Explainer video on science of why the 400m sprint is considered the most painful track & field event.

And why “no person on the planet can run the 400m all out from start to finish".

The race pushes the way the body creates energy to the limit:

▫️0-50 meters: ATP-CP (energy system for very short and explosive movements; used up after 5-10 seconds)

▫️50-200 meters: Anaerobic glycolysis (burns glucose without oxygen, leading to lactic acid buildup and muscle fatigue)

▫️200-300 meters: Aerobic energy (uses oxygen to break down glucose, but cannot keep up with the demand)

▫️300-400 meters: Anaerobic energy reserves tapped while aerobic energy is too slow to fill the gaps (lactic acid buildup is going HAM)

Track athletes can pace for longer distances and shorter ones are just over quicker (obvs).

The Olympic record is a blazing 43:03, set by South African runner Wayde van Niekerk in 2016 (and 2024 Final race is tomorrow).

My first football jersey was a 2001 Parma Hidetoshi Nakata... all in on Zion Suzuki who has an even STRONGER name!

🇯🇵👏 Japanese goalkeeper Zion Suzuki doing a press conference in Italian for his new club Parma. Fantastic! 🗣️🇮🇹

[O.W. Root @owroot]

Snark/snot culture where all you do is mock sincerity or earnest expression is a big reason why people are so miserable socially. Everyone is in a race to prove they are somehow ironically above being a human. No wonder there is such little art or feeling.

[Johnny Vrodos @johnvrodos]

Bielsa has read his Galeano.

'Football is... a cultural expression, it is a way of identification.'

I explored this in my piece on La Roja here: https://t.co/kirIE961mc

[LUFC Worldwide ⚪️ @LUFC_WorldWide]

Every football fan should spend 2 minutes watching this video.

Bielsa talking about the current state of football. Very poignant as we watch the worst European Championship of our generation
