Wednesday vs Charlton might help train the team some more. (That was rough.) Tel showed heart.

I don’t mind it. I want to celebrate Spurs in Bilbao on a bus in Western Mass this season or next.

Iceland’s continental rift. Still widening. North America is on the right and Europe is on the left.

After The Economist’s interview with Elon Musk, will major media finally reassess how they cover the fascist billionaire? As its editor-in-chief did the rounds saying she was “not a Musk hater,” he was on X calling her a traitor to the West and suggesting she be murdered. Please, have some dignity.

Elon Musk’s tired schtick

Why does the media keep debasing itself for a man who despises them?

My three World Cup hot takes: (1) The strongest story in the tournament was a Messi win. (An Mbappé win would have been strong.) (2) Martinez was a wall. Otherwise two more Spain goals. (3) The Muppets were good. Why no Dr. Teeth?

Don’t give me Muppets and then take the Muppets away.

Please release a clip of Ken Early’s riff comparing Tuchel’s ENG (versus ARG) to Jeff Goldblum in -The Fly- (going back to the teleporter then begging the world to end him.) That was incredible.

Jason Burke Murphy @murfmensch.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

The match was so different after Gordon’s ENG goal. ARG charge after ARG charge.

Jason Burke Murphy @murfmensch.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Shouting the national anthem: ARG just did that. Dear ENG: Singing “Queen” instead of King is fine by me frankly.

For the third straight time, a Tottenham Hotspur player is guaranteed to be a World Cup champion.

Spain just kept getting the ball back all match. Pedro Porro is a jugador. #ESPFRA #FRAESP #PedroPorro

Jason Burke Murphy @murfmensch.bsky.social · 14/07/2026

Porro is awfully good. Rabiot would be replaced by one of the Spaniards, I think. These teams look well-matched as of 13:15.

The crowd at Boston’s wharf is one third Moroccan. People are meeting there and exchanging contact info. Fans make this game good. The France shorts are all Francophiles. One was waving a copy of Camus’ —The Rebel—. Quel fantastique!

Met Roger Bennett today. He works a crowd. My shirt has Socrates thereon’t. I recommend the philosopher and the midfielder. Great Wikipedia pages, both! Watching France/ Morocco on a screen at the Long Wharf. Boston can deliver the goods, y’all!

I have really enjoyed the other articles posted in --Eleven Named People--, so I am very happy. I recommend browsing titles on this page. Feel free to share.

And one more thing: all the cranks demanding third parties should take a look at what Mamdani has done. He won his Democratic primary and then threw his support behind other primary challengers and won those. He's the King of New York, and he did it as a Democrat and with Democrats.

Scotland v Haiti was a good match. There was desire and different strategies. Haiti had the right idea but final passes and shot did not land. Looking forward to Andy Robertson for Tottenham.

The World Cup pregame ran through a ton of Mexican pop culture. It was goofy, fun, and hit the right note for me.

Ange eventually turned the league into something like a loan spell while the main team went for the Europa League trophy.
