@herculezg @JozyAltidore I get that we have these mandated hydration breaks, but the grass gotta drink too?!?

He got a concussion and they told him that he was prime Buffon and he believed it

While most took an expected view of the 2026 USMNT World Cup roster, I looked through a unique lens that represents my area of focus. Here is an analysis of the development pathways that built this World Cup Roster ⤵️

@FishOnFirst Adeiny Hechavarría is not impressed

[Marcus Chairez | US/SC @USSoccerColl]

Malik was the player I told my group to watch. I knew they’d appreciate the subtle culture to his game. They were blown away by his skill.

[Spencer Mossman @fc_mossman]

🇺🇸 Alex Freeman, vs. all players through the first four matches of the World Cup:

- T-1st for ball progressions (10)
- 2nd for line breaking passes completed (23)

😁😁

@TheBolivianYank Every time i went to say "[INSERT PLAYER] is in his bag" somebody else pulled a flare move *while i was saying it* and i had to follow with "i mean everyone's in their bag." This happened multiple times... during a USMNT game... at the world cup!

[Jon @TYAC_Jon]

@scuffedpod "Assist" on the opening OG counts in EPL fantasy if i remember right. So does drawing the foul that leads to a converted penalty or FK; that'll be next match.

Then and now. First World Cup was Italia 90. The 2026 World Cup starts today at SoFi.

I've hit subscribe on "Max's anecdotal evidence" and you should too

[Maximiliano Bretos @MaxBretosSports]

Can confirm this will be most viewed ⚽️ game in American 🇺🇸 history, everyone talking about it gym/chipotle/dry cleaners.
Sources tell me tonight has a red carpet guest list that will rival Knicks game.
My friend Jose who runs an HVAC company said it took him 3 hours to go from Lawndale to Downey, normally takes 40 mins.

Whatever you do while I’m away, don’t dress the duck in a Mexico shirt and take it to the match

So one thing we are going to kind of sort let out of the bag right now is this.

If you happen to find us @SolaceBrewing / @SolaceOutpost or @FranklinHallDC and you are visiting from another country or a fan of another team.

We want to continue a soccer tradition but in our own way. If you bring us a scarf from whatever country, or team or whoever you roll with than we will trade you one of ours as part of our way of saying welcome. Our goal is to when all is said and done put any teams we have collected on display permanently.

I podded with two of my favorite soccer people about the USMNT, identity, patriotism, & a lot of other stuff TAP IN ‼️

[Jon @TYAC_Jon]

@YanksAreComing Makes it even better that it's over Memo. If it was another Mexico GK it would still be awesome, but right over the legend's head, chef's kiss

[The Yanks Are Coming @YanksAreComing]

My favorite goal ever at Azteca.

MB 90. 🔥🇺🇸

[OneSoccer @onesoccer]

Moïse Bombito is IN ✅

Sources tell Kristian Jack that the OGC Nice defender has reportedly made the CanMNT 🇨🇦 World Cup roster, and is set to be on the squad list when it officially has to be submitted to FIFA before 3PM ET today 😎

#VWFC standout Ralph Priso misses out as a result

[Alex M. Silverman🏒⚽️ @AlexMSilverman]

Breaking: @USSoccer has extended the contract of CEO and Secretary General JT Batson. Batson, who joined the organization in 2022, had been rumored to be a candidate to succeed Don Garber as commissioner of @MLS. More to come at @SBJ.
