“I like to be among the greats. I work hard for that, you know? “So I like having that price tag.” St. Louis City SC are the hottest team in MLS, and they're spearheaded by one of the most expensive players in the league's history. Meet Rafa Navarro: www.mlssoccer.com/news/st-loui...

Up in The Hill, killing a little time before dinner. The neighborhood that produced four players from the 1950 USMNT World Cup squad. No city in the US has the soccer heritage St. Louis does - for my money it isn’t even close. Such a deep, rich history.

Actually wrote about this earlier this year. 1960 Mizzou’s case.
• Mizzou 1960 - They finished 11-0******* and 7-O in the Big 8. Actually, they were 10-1 and had a 23-7 loss to #11 Kansas. HOWEVA... Kansas used an ineligible player, Bert Coan, in the game, and the win was officially awarded to Missouri by the Big Eight Conference on December 8. So instead of being 10-1, the Big 8 made them 11-0 and conference champions.
HOWEVAAAAA AGAIN.... Kansas' conference victories against Colorado and Missouri were forfeited by Big Eight sanctions, though both are recognized as Kansas victories by Kansas and the NCAA. So we got a dispute on what their actual record was this year. They lost, but the Big 8 said Kansas was cheating, but the NCAA did not make them forfeit wins??? Ok, now the record of Mizzou is cleared up (not really); the claimed national champions in 1960 were Minnesota at 8-2 with a loss in the Rose Bowl to Washington, Ole Miss at 10-0-1, Iowa at 8-1, and Washington at 10-1. So maybe one loss is still good enough to claim this championship?
• VERDICT: Claim it, Mizzou! 10-1 is good enough to claim it anyway this year; a conference-recognized 11-0 is better!
Claim it!

as a straight dude I agree too. it's evidence of a weak will and/or poor attachment to good values, and we've all got LGBT friends or family. more practically I've seen way too many people go batshit fucking crazy down the transphobia waterslide

After watching the USMNT crash out of the Men's World Cup, it is useful to remember that the dominance of the USWNT in the Women's World Cup is 100% because of Title IX. The "American Greatness" Gang are willfully dismantling something that produced that same Greatness.

We might have lost in the World Cup but my daughter wanted to watch the game with me and then kick the ball around outside after so in the end it was a win.

Was watching the France game on the 4th with some boomers who were at a friends house. None of them care about soccer generally and spent a good amount of time making fun of the diving. But they were also all in, had been watching all the games and were attracted to the stories.

Political ideology is the strongest predictor of Messi-Ronaldo preference. Authoritarians who like short-form video are more likely to think Ronaldo is the GOAT.
