🚨❤️ Leo Messi: "Thanks to this team and these teammates, I can be at another World Cup today and I can keep competing. Like I said before, I know they make an extra effort so that I can keep competing and they do it from the heart because they truly feel it, it's not forced.
"The truth is that I am deeply grateful and I am very happy to compete alongside them, my teammates. They are friends. It’s a very beautiful, very united group. It makes me happy to hear all those affectionate words."
"Licha's words? Yes, I know that Lisandro has a lot of affection for me, just like this whole group does. They always have a kind word and they show it to me day after day. Honestly, I am happy.
"Even though I already know how they feel, because Licha is also a very close person to me and he tells me things directly, so I already knew."
"Not only did they (Cape Verde) go toe-to-toe with one of the favorites for the World Cup... they outplayed them at times"
@craigburley and the @ESPNFC crew reacts to Cape Verde's performance against Argentina.
"Why are we allowing LeBron to hold the league hostage? We're stuck on this facade that 'the greatness is here, and we have to appreciate it before it's gone.' He's already gone..."

Samuel L. Jackson jokes that he lost his title as Hollywood's highest-grossing actor but says he'll win it back soon.
Jackson says Harrison Ford recently reclaimed the top spot.
> "He's lucky I'm not in Captain America 3."
Despite his incredible success, Jackson says he still treats every movie like it's opening weekend.
He reveals that he buys $1,000 worth of tickets every time one of his films is released.
> "I know it's gonna make at least a thousand dollars that weekend."
He gives the tickets away to churches and families so more people can see the film.
Jackson also says he regularly watches his own movies with everyday audiences not premieres because he wants honest reactions.
> "I go... to see what normal people are saying."
And when someone walks out saying,
> "That movie sucked... but Sam Jackson was the shit."
He says:
> "I like it."
Which Samuel L. Jackson movie is your all-time favorite?

Wind River is not Taylor Sheridan’s best script and that says something. This movie is unbelievable on so many levels but it’s probably Sheridan’s thirst best script behind Hell or High Water and Sicario. All three films demonstrate Sheridan’s ability to move plot forward with both action & meaningful dialogue. It’s why he’s one of the best screenwriters in the game.
