True. Fox is, however, getting the revenue (and some suspect it’s a semi-make good for having Qatar be in the middle of NFL season)

[Michael.R Payne @MichaelRPayne1]

The TV contracts were negotiated long before FIFA introduced the hydration breaks, & I doubt any bonus clause if they were introduced. Was just not on the radar. So Infantino probably correct when he says FIFA not getting any extra revenue (this time!)

I have spent most of my World Cup fan travel off of social media until this rain delay in Philly and for a soccer fan it’s been super blissful.

The discourse needs a lie down

@MsiDouglas @England You can get a mini version of this at any Dick’s Sporting Goods store in the U.S. for under $309

[Matt Traub @matttraub]

While listening to the IOC presser I laughed hearing this blind belief that they’re somehow better/bigger/different than FIFA

[Adam Crafton @AdamCrafton_]

When will these people learn that they are mere sports administrators and the administration will not bend policy for them.

@RichPerelman @Brisbane_2032 @USFigureSkating Thank you for the mention, sir.

[Johanna Huybers @JohannaHuybers]

I loved working with Tyler. He has this frenetic energy that makes big events feel huge. His whimsy ideas make you love your job. Someone you want to have in the trenches with you.

[Johanna Huybers @JohannaHuybers]

Mike is great! Eager to take on any assignment and attack it with vigor. He’d be an asset anywhere, and I hate that it won’t be at SI any longer. The best teammate you could ask for.

[Matt Traub @matttraub]

@DanSpears I don’t get Aaronson and Reyna has gotta stop being coddled for what’s been proven to be little return on the field. And I wouldn’t take Haji Wright over Gozo or Luna either if he shows up on roster

[Matt Traub @matttraub]

Unpopular opinion; Luna is a better player than Aaronson and has shown more on USMNT than Aaronson ever has

[Paul Tenorio @PaulTenorio]

BREAKING: Gio Reyna is going to the World Cup. He is on Pochettino's 26-man roster, per sources.

Seb Berhalter, Brenden Aaronson, Matt Turner and Mark McKenzie also on squad. Diego Luna and Zavier Gozo are not on the team, sources said.

With @tombogert.

@joeclowery I’m not a fan but tbh I’m more annoyed at Aaronson over Luna. I don’t agree that Aaronson should be automatic on roster.

[Matt Traub @matttraub]

I chatted with the former CEO of USA Cricket on the organization's bankruptcy, an update on where it stands, plus news and notes around the sports industry.

NBA Twitter gonna be like this every game of West Finals

From me: Popular industry veteran Terry Hasseltine discusses leaving the Maryland Sports Commission, the state of the industry and the favorite sporting event he's ever attended.

[Matt Traub @matttraub]

The IOC keeps presenting and talking about being “Fit for the Future” but what the future holds for the actual sports program is undecided and may not be until next year for the 2032 Summer Games in Australia.

@KHeneage I struggle to understand why anyone may think this is a bad idea. He seems a perfect false 9 …. Gotta be the inability to be an Isak-esque presser that’s the problem for Howe.

[Matt Traub @matttraub]

I always enjoy chatting with Travis Murphy of Jetr Global about sports and the broader political spectrum in which it operates, and this was no exception.

@CurryHicksSage As of a few years ago the dude was charging $75k speaking fee for anybody who wanted him to do a 30-minute speech at an event.

[Matt Traub @matttraub]

For those of us of a certain age, what it was like going to a minor league baseball game is dead. That doesn't mean it's worse. Just different.
