*grabs megaphone* the Spain kits are exponentially better in long sleeve because the color stripe accent on the bottom of the sleeve ties the whole kit together!

the fact that we have *multiple* humans in full long sleeve jerseys in this match is boggling my mind

happy World Cup Third Place Game Day to those who celebrate. this is your regular reminder that this actual match is often better than the final. Casuals, welcome. If you need a fun one as an example, rewind exactly 20 years.

this is a throwback to such a specific era of late night tv that made me fall in love with it as a genre of show. Constant non sequitur callbacks to amusing names is just plain funny and they werent too good for it, ever haha

Leading up to Selection Sunday, UCLA claimed its 31-1 record had a stronger foundation than Connecticut’s 34-0. The bracket-makers didn’t agree. Three Sundays later, the Bruins made the ultimate case in the championship game: www.inquirer.com/college-spor... via @phillysport.bsky.social
inquirer.com
Lauren Betts and Gabriela Jaquez lead UCLA to a national title with a 79-51 rout of South Carolina
The win gave the Bruins their first women’s basketball national championship since the sport’s AIAW era in 1978.

everyone should read this piece Clinton wrote about Everett Fitzhugh and the Kraken. Especially if you're a Kraken fan and want to feel good about the team and the choices they've made about their future as an organization.

Like 75% of the US Olympic curlers are from Minnesota. A lot of them curl out of two clubs in Saint Paul, one club is in Frogtown, a neighborhood that has been very heavily targeted by ICE. These curlers are good neighbors.

He keeps every story I write in boxes in his home. He calls me to ask if I know when my stories make it on the front page of the sports section. It’s an honor to be part of the @postsports.bsky.social team. Always have felt that way but especially today.
