The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.
And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.
Here is what they are discovering:
Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.
Then they found the grocery stores.
Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.
The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.
They finally understand why we do not have trains.
We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.
Why would we need trains.
The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.
Welcome to America!
The greatest country on earth.
Love this, more people need to find their worth in doing a job to the best of their ability and not just the results.
All you can do is all you can do. And then you’ve done enough.
“When you are genuinely happy for your teammate, when you’re genuinely happy for your brother, then you get excited, you get enjoyment out of seeing him dominate.”
LOVED this comment from Meleek Thomas tonight.
This team doesn’t have egos. They just love playing with each other. #WPS
Gotta say- Arkansas is an awesome fanbase. Nothing but respect, something you don’t see much of nowadays. Woo Pig Sooie, rooting for them going forward.
This box has been requested for a longggg time... WOO PIG SOOIE
These Razorbacks produce some incredible alumni across every sport, and one of my best friends in the world went there!
Thank you to Coach Pittman and @RazorbackFB for this INCREDIBLE package, GO RAZORBACKS BABY!
Bob Holt spent his entire life doing what his parents taught him.
Sit at the front. Take good notes. Always ask questions.
A tribute to my colleague, mentor and great friend.

Bob Holt, one of the last great true Journalist passed at 10:38 tonight. Ironically the doctor on duty was a former Razorback baseball player. Bob was an amazing person. Kindest most gentle man in the world, always lifting people up and helping them.
Bob Holt is as universally well liked as Paul Eells was. A friend to all. Pray for him. We need him back among us. Press conferences would be boring without him.
Now is the time for every American who loves our country to step back from the division, renounce all violence, and unite in prayer for President Trump and his family.
Hamas has informed mediators that it rejects the latest hostage deal after Israel made significant concessions and offered the release of 800 prisoners for 40 hostages.
The rejection is a direct consequence of todays’ UN vote. Hamas has no reason to negotiate or compromise when countries are pressuring Israel to accept a ceasefire.
