The World Cup begins tomorrow, and many will watch the matches. Soccer reminds us of something we must not forget: life is not a race to show off on our own, but a path we learn to walk together. Anyone who does not know how to pass the ball, even if they have talent, has not yet understood the game. Anyone who does not know how to live with and for others has not yet understood life. #ApostolicJourney
The visa story is the most telling controversy this World Cup has had
Fifa is going against its own rules and precedent
Should it even be held in a state that clearly doesn't see it as a World Cup
What was the point of Infantino's cravenness to Trump?

@Ankaman616 Senegal will beat France and win their group.
We'll all be sad when Uzbekistan are eliminated at the group stage.
Canada will be the last host nation standing.
Scott McTominay will score a late (90+) winner against Morocco.
Boston bars/pubs will report beer shortages.
@Ankaman616@HLTCO No-one should have 5 CL spots.
The winners of the top 20 leagues should automatically qualify for the CL. Remaining places distributed on rolling 5yr ranking.
I remember exactly where I was.
A pub in the Highlands. Working.
We had a young German couple in.
Their jaws hit their dinner plates at 3-0. Not sure they ever recovered.
Applause at FT. Sensational.
The BBC are steadily releasing highlights from old World Cup games on their Youtube channel.
Going back to watch Germany 7-1 Brazil from 2014. The game is still remarkable. The commentary is outstanding. https://t.co/Sp7pXiTbX0
Predator and T2 fucking rule🤘🔥
You absolutely can tell people this. Just double down when they question it. Hit them with your knowledge and your enthusiasm.
I have studied film at FE and HE. Seen it all: the classics, world, European, avant-garde. I can't tell anyone this, but Arnold Schwarzenegger is my favourite actor. Predator and T2 are my favourite films.
John Krasinsky and Chris Pratt are handed two ends of a broken pool cue at CIA headquarters, whoever emerges alive gets to play the lead in the already-in-production Iran War downed pilot rescue movie
One month after starting the war in Iran, this is the statement of the President of the United States on Easter Sunday.
These are the ravings of a dangerous and mentally unbalanced individual. Congress has got to act NOW. End this war.
I remember where I was when you thumped THAT header in against Barca! A modest apartment in a small Mexican city, watching on a laptop.
Made a friendly bet with a teacher I worked with, he said Barca will win, Celtic have no chance.
We knew better.
Thank you & Congratulations✌️
Today i announce my retirement from football, Four different countries six different clubs, A boy from Muthurwa with a big dream, carrying a Nations pride everytime i stepped onto the pitch. To my family, friends, agent, the fans and the coaching staff that helped me throughout
FIFA has opted not to take action against the Israel Football Association (IFA) regarding its teams playing in the West Bank after a complaint was lodged by the Palestinian Football Association (PFA) in 2024.
FIFA’s Governance, Audit and Compliance Committee (GACC) determined no action should be taken as “the final legal status of the West Bank remains an unresolved and highly complex matter under public international law”.

St Patrick's Day, 6.15pm.
Perth Road, Dundee.
An ambulance outside an Irish pub. Across the street, a woman dressed in green, vomiting. Her boyfriend watches on offering words of encouragement.
Happy St Patrick's Day one and all!
