another championship.
I believe I can help make the Philadelphia 76ers a championship team and I am so excited to energize a new fan base and start this incredible journey one last time.
Thank you LA. Miami I’ll forever love and Northeast Ohio will always home!

Getting tired of all this “Pulisic isn’t good” rhetoric because the WC didn’t go as planned for him.
Also, I phrase it that way because I think saying he had a bad WC isn’t even necessarily an accurate approximation of what happened. He was pretty good against Paraguay and then solid against Australia. Yes, the Belgium game was a struggle, but it was a struggle for every American player.
Would we have liked him to play more and to play through some pain and not be so fragile? Of course, and I don’t want to minimize that, but the idea he had a bad WC isn’t 100% accurate IMO. He had an unfortunate WC and we expect more, but on the whole I wouldn’t say he performed poorly.
Also, Pulisic is going to breeze into second place on the all time USMNT list for goals and assists and total goal contributions. He may even become the leader in goals. He won’t reach Donovan’s assist record because he didn’t get to rack up silly totals against small island nations as often.
That’s because he challenged himself abroad in a way Donovan didn’t. Pulisic was the first American to win the UCL (Kirovski kinda, but keep in mind he didn’t really play much that season he “won” it). He did so as a key player for Chelsea in winning it. Most UCL appearances for an American. Most goals. Most assists.
He has won trophies for clubs in three of the four biggest footballing leagues and some of Europe’s biggest clubs. He had a span in recent years where he was probably the best player in Serie A. Heck, that was earlier this past season. It wasn’t that long ago. His last six months has been riddled with injuries and poor play, but let’s not revise what he’s accomplished.
Oh yeah and he has 1G, 3A in 539 career WC minutes, which is a a pretty decent rate. The goal too was one of the biggest goals in USMNT history. He is second in most USMNT WC goal contributions behind Donovan and only one behind. He very easily could claim that record at the end of his career. He also already has the USMNT WC assists record. The idea he hasn’t shown up on the field when it really mattered is insane.
Yes, you can question his commitment to the team after not playing at the GC. You can question it after he doesn’t show emotion towards big defeats, but the idea he hasn’t performed for the USMNT? It isn’t supported by the facts.

He shot 62.
Then drove to the tournament course because, well, 62 always gets through a KFT Mon Q.
Except this time it didn't.
At around 7pm Chase Sienkiewicz got a phone call telling him a playoff was starting in 10 mins. He was 10 mins away

"I don't love anonymous sources and don't think it's really fair to have an anonymous source questioning somebody's character. We're taking apart a guy that's had a lot of success in this league... I don't quite get it."

🚨🎙️| Jamie Carragher: 🗣️
"We've all been very unfairly critical of this Arsenal's team. Let's be honest, they've been the best team in the league this season, but no one has ever done the quadruple, and we may never see anyone do it because of how competitive the Premier League is. There's no way one team in England will run away with all the available trophies in a season.
The meltdown from some Arsenal fans is totally uncalled for. It's always good to win every trophy but again, you can't win it all. No need for this meltdown because it's just the Carabao Cup.
Arsenal looks set to win the main prize — the Premier League, and I'm convinced they're going to win it in May. I do want them to win it because it will mean that we have 3 different winners in 3 seasons, which will be good for the league.
Instead of this head loss from some section of Arsenal fans, I would recommend you support your team and cheer them on because you're on course to win something big in May."
I don’t follow hockey, but this had me tearing up. They brought their teammate’s (who was killed by a drunk driver) kids out onto the ice with their dad’s jersey to celebrate the moment. 🥹
