Nike pays Erling Haaland roughly $20 million a year to be photographed with their products. A family-run western store in Dallas just got the same treatment for free. Better than free: Haaland paid them $750 for a taxidermy raccoon hugging a whiskey bottle.

The backstory makes it better. Haaland walked into Wild Bill's Western Store during Norway's World Cup run and bought cowboy hats, exotic boots, a longhorn belt buckle, and a shirt reading "Y'all can kiss my Dallas." The owner says Haaland knew nothing about cowboy hats and had to be fitted for his first one.

Then Norway's Cinderella run ended in the quarterfinals, and the tournament's breakout star, seven goals, carried the raccoon off the plane in Oslo himself. Caption: "It followed me home." Then he ran an Instagram poll asking fans to name it.

The results for a boot shop that's been family-owned since the 1970s: the Whiskey Raccoon is sold out. The Dallas shirt is nearly gone. Their $500 Belligerent Squirrel, a taxidermy squirrel smoking a cigarette and holding Jack Daniel's, is down to low stock. Local shoppers are lining up at a store most of them had walked past for years.

Sports brands run entire celebrity seeding departments trying to manufacture exactly this: a global superstar genuinely delighted by a product, on camera, unprompted. Every one of those campaigns reads as an ad, because it is one.

Brands spend $20 million a year renting Haaland's image. Wild Bill's sold it to him for $750.

Spain stole our silver, gold & precious stones, and now they’re stealing our catchphrases?!

They’re giving away Lindsay Grahams seat to his sister and they’re giving Mitch McConnells seat to his cousin.

We do not live in a democracy anymore. This is not how a democracy functions.

We did not vote for these people.

Ninguém fala que o Mbappé tem uma consciência social que ninguem daquele time ou da seleçao tem. Ele é publicamente contra as bets, no contrato dele tem cláusula proibindo vincular a imagem dele com as bets. Ele é seletivo nos contratos de marketing, ele se recusa a divulgar o que ele chama de comida lixo, os ultraprocessados, por saber o mal que causa especialmente às crianças. O cara se posiciona politicamente. Isso deve desagradar aqueles que se vendem fácil. Ele é foda, o resto é intriga.

When Cape Verde started taking control, every major decision suddenly went Argentina’s way.

When Egypt looked ready to go three goals clear, the referee found a reason to wipe one off.

When Switzerland threatened to complete the turnaround, a Swiss player was conveniently sent off.

You can look away all you want, but the pattern is becoming impossible to ignore. The favouritism is glaring, and the stench of corruption is everywhere.

jajaja los mexicanos con su jersey verde en absolutamente todos los partidos del Mundial.

This angle of Sørloth ignoring Haaland. The reaction from Haaland says it all man. He was frustrated and disappointed, just like the rest of us.

If the system will collapse because that name is revealed, let the system collapse.

Never not watching this masterpiece every time it pops up. They can disallow it all they want, it will always be real to us.

If, in fact, McConnell has been dead for almost a month, then some people pretending otherwise need to go to PRISON.

Lo mejor de Mbappe (aparte de ser un crack) es que no es otro futbolista de Instagram. Es un tipo con conciencia social, que no se queda callado ante el racismo, que se opone a las casas de apuesta y que no le da miedo HABLAR. Ya no hacen futbolistas como él.
