- Announced Project Helix, the codename for the next-gen console
- Rebranded from Microsoft Gaming back to simply Xbox
- Scrapped the “This is an Xbox” marketing campaign
- Committed to human-crafted games and ruled out low-quality AI content
- Boosted direct fan engagement on X with faster responses and updates
Look at this video. Prestianni was already calling Vinícius Jr a “m*onkey” long before he even heard it.
That’s why Mbappé said he heard it five times, and reason why he was the first to confront him. https://t.co/ApkVINqoRv
🚨🚨 VINI JR.:
“Racists are, above all, cowards. They need to put their shirts in their mouths to show how weak they are.
But they have the protection of others who, theoretically, have an obligation to punish them.
Nothing that happened today is new in my life or in my team's life.
I received a yellow card for
celebrating a goal. I still don't
understand why. On the other hand, it was just a poorly executed protocol that served no purpose.
I don't like to appear in situations like this, especially after a big win and when the headlines should be about Real Madrid, but it's necessary.”
Mbappe saying all the right things in the mixed zone.
"I asked Vini what he wanted to do. Whatever he wants to do, we'll do it as a team. We'll never leave Vini alone. We've supported our player. If something like that happens to you, how would you feel?
"Did Prestianni apologize? Did you see his face? An apology? We're not stupid, there are things that... I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I don't let that kind of thing slide. This player is young, how can you say these things on a football pitch? Now we have to see what happens. We were leaving, it was the team's decision, I don't know what happened, and then we came back. We focused on what we're doing, but today the important thing isn't the match, there's something more important than the match."
"We have to set an example for all the children who look up to us; there are things we can't accept. We shouldn't generalize. I have Portuguese friends, they treat me very well, but when someone behaves like that, it has to be said. People don't know what happened, and that's why they booed us. I have nothing against Benfica, the club, or its coach, who for me is one of the best, and the club is the best in Portugal and one of the best in history. But this kid doesn't deserve to play in the Champions League anymore. We'll see what happens; let's leave it to UEFA, who always try to do something. Now they have a serious case, and I hope they do something."
Bobby Riggs and I played in the Battle of the Sexes inside the Houston Astrodome, with a global audience of 90M watching, 52 years ago today.
This was never just a tennis match.
It was about equality, respect, and demonstrating that women belong on the same stage as men, in sports, in the boardroom, and beyond.
I was 29 years old, carrying the hopes of so many women who had been told to sit down, be quiet, or know their place. But we knew better.
And we knew the power of showing up.
The battle isn’t over, but time has demonstrated that progress is possible.
Keep showing up.
And together, let's keep going for it.
