🚨 Giggs:

“Rio once told me, ‘Watch his left hand, not his foot.’ That’s how Becks bent a ball to his will. One swing, ball had no choice. The foot was just the trigger. Some players learn the game… others make the game learn them. Beckham was that guy”

🇫🇷 Endrick has been in France for just 4 months and he's given a whole interview in French.

THE DESTINATION IS IMPORTANT. BUT IT’S THE JOURNEY THAT MATTERS.

Reflective and appreciative. The plays. The people. The highs. The lows. The work. The moments in between. That’s where the magic resides.

For a Pittsburgh kid who loves football, a dream came true.

Eli - you earned the right to earn a spot. Now go get it.

When Frank Lampard deliberately downplayed Cristiano Ronaldo's tackle on him to prevent the Portuguese star from receiving a second yellow card.

They don't make footballers like that anymore. 👏

THE MOMENT HAILEY BAPTISTE BEAT ARYNA SABALENKA IN MADRID

Let’s stop playing…

Ime Udoka — FIRED.
Mel Tucker — FIRED.
Sherrone Moore — FIRED.

But Mike Vrabel?
Handled differently… talk of “rehab,” not removal.

Same type of allegations. Different outcomes.

That’s not accountability — that’s selective enforcement.

Black coaches lose careers.

@PaulSpacey @abarnet1 No it’s the Lambeth Tigers in south London.

[Preps.com @prepsdotcom]

@PaulSpacey @abarnet1 The American ignorance jokes don’t work when you’re debating a British- Nigerian born in south London that has spent decades on this subject. You’re loud and wrong. Give me a few more years and I’ll clean up the egg in your face.
