First, that second touch was just exquisite. Second, the touch past the second defender was just as good. Third, better speed than I expected. Fourth, the pass was the right play, but just go for the glory there!

Obviously miles apart in level, but is Sebastian Berhalter the most Lampard-shaped player the #usmnt has ever had?

I love how the U23 USMNT players are going for home run balls every single pass.

I've got a sneaking suspicion that Sebastian Berhalter is going to end up in the top ten for goals scored by midfielders.

(2) PERSON 1: Only two instruments remain. Do we want to lose the plasma wave subsystem or the magnetometer? (3) PERSON 2 with ponytail: You know, if we just turned off Greg’s LED underlighting– PERSON 4 with short hair: Absolutely not. PERSON 3: Dammit, Greg. PERSON 4: I will *not* allow us to look uncool in front of aliens.

Gen Z is going to completely rock our world, I think. In my experience, they tend to be incredibly smart, focused and hard working. They need to work on relaxing and enjoying themselves in my opinion, but they'll have time to figure that out.

Disgusting decision by MLS Next Pro. Columbus Crew 2 coach grabbed the female referee's arm and wouldn't let go when repeatedly asked to and told her, "Remember this is a man's game." Minimum suspension per rules is 6 and only gave him 2. www.espn.com/soccer/story...

espn.com

Sources: Higuain at center of refs union beef with MLS NEXT Pro

The union that represents MLS and USL referees, launched a scathing critique of MLS NEXT Pro over its handling of an incident in which a coach committed what it described as "two deliberate acts of physical abuse and sexism towards a female referee."

This is probably an uhly American take but the big 5 euro leagues should try and coordinate their schedules so that their biggest matches correspond to regular time slots. Bundi. 730 Sunday Serie A 930 Sunday. Epl. 1130 on Sunday ligue 1 130 on Sunday La Liga 330 on sunday

comment:
In the ninth inning of this game, there was a line drive back to the mound which hit Miguel Del Pozo in the chin. The ball hit the ground which was then picked up by the third baseman who threw to first for the out. While the ball was hit as a line drive, the play becomes a ground out if I am not mistaken. A 153 lineout would be if the ball ricocheted around and was caught in the air.

The Coventry City badge doesn't really translate to the score bug very well. At first blush I thought it looked like Bluto wearing gloves with a soccer ball in front of him and a red and white prayer shawl over his head.
