The most hard-hitting language, which surely means Manchester City must face the hardest-hitting sanctions Expulsion, and the independent football regulator looking at a forced sale Given the stridency, can normal football business even go on? www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

Man City’s staggering rule-breaking has left the Premier League with only one option

Found guilty on all but one of more than 100 charges, the club’s behaviour casts doubt over an entire era of football. How, Miguel Delaney asks, can they be allowed to remain in the top flight?

Hawkeyes. Hawks. Omg. How stupid can Schmitt be? Anyone else does this in the real world would not have a job. Why are we tolerating this & paying their salaries?

During the 29 September US Senate judiciary committee hearing, the Republican senator Eric Schmitt accused Jack Smith, the former special counsel, of attending an Atlanta Hawks basketball game in Atlanta.

Sen. Eric Schmitt was so overzealous to try and get Jack Smith, a good and honest man who has done great work, that Schmitt embarrassed himself by accusing Smith of going to the wrong basketball game. You can't make this stuff up. And right wing media will pretend it never happened.

Imagine if Jack Smith really HAD attended a Hawks game. That would totally be worse than inciting an insurrection and trying to overthrow our Democracy. They were so damn close.

In high school, my teachers taught us to investigate source material. Where information came from, who was telling it, who they were telling it to. Not all information is created equal. Anyway, it took me a while to realize that level of analysis, fundamental in my life, is not widely taught.

Before the election, Trump said he could end the Ukraine war in a day. When pressed as to how he would do it, he said, elect me & find out. We found out. He had no plan. Let that be a lesson. If a politician running for office won't divulge their plans, they don't have any.

What’s even more disturbing about Senator Schmitt failed gotcha moment with Jack Smith being at an Atlanta Hawks Basketball game is WHY???? It was a hearing about investigating the President for taking classified documents and the Jan 6th insurrection Republicans are pathetic and shameful

What Jack Smith said today should be on the cover of every newspaper worldwide. It should be the end of Trump. Unfortunately it’s just a Tuesday in the upside down. And like so many other things that should’ve been the end of him, it barely registers at home let alone abroad.

Also, what was the alleged link between the Hawks game and Willis? Was she there?? Or was the allegation that he went to see a game in Atlanta so it must have been a secret meeting with Willis? I’m so confused on the evidentiary logic

Trump said his GOP convention beat the NFL. Nielsen says the Seahawks-Patriots opener drew 25.1 million viewers. Trump’s speech drew about 3.3 million across three networks. Claiming victory after losing by roughly 21.8 million people takes a special kind of self delusion.

Bc the last 30 seconds of this are the best, reminder that @amyklobuchar.com's dad was a sports journalist, which may explain her utter contempt for Schmitt mistaking the Hawks and Hawkeyes.

It is Senator Schmitt (R-MO) who perjured himself at this hearing, right? Caught in a bald-face lie in this congressional hearing? What's the punishment for that? Expelled? Forced to resign? Can't tell the Atlanta Hawks & Iowa Hawkeyes apart.

If every major city had a Mamdani, I do believe we could actually "fix" the U.S. Racism and cowardice have found a voice and purpose in 30% of Americans, but courage is contagious as well.
