It is not too late for you to change your mind here, Mr. Johnson.
Am I a hypocrite for wanting this after giving a hard no to muppet knives out
Okay, I'm making my case for the only Muppet I want to see on Broadway right now...

Her ability to develop players, her unique mentality, her historic season with Racing Louisville, and persevering through everything that was thrown at her both on and off the field, here’s why I believe Bev Yanez deserves to be #NWSL Coach of the Year.

When asked if there was anything "incriminating" in Epstein's emails, Trump pointed a finger in a female reporter's face and snapped. 'Quiet. Quiet, Piggy.'

The good news for the NWSL: women’s soccer is growing thanks to increased investment and competition.

The bad news for the NWSL: women’s soccer is growing and the current salary cap is not gonna cut it.

Trinity Rodman is the final test. All in? Or fall behind? www.nytimes.com/athletic/681...
NWSL can’t keep Trinity Rodman and its current salary cap. It’s up to the league to choose
The rest of the world, and its biggest clubs, are watching the league's decision closely.

What I'm really saying here is this:

If the NWSL isn't willing to raise the cap for the most marketable player in the league, one whose desire to stay is genuine & deep, then it becomes precedent to say it's not worth it to raise the cap for anyone else.

It's now or never.

“Why?” asked Frog.

“I am thinking about tomorrow,” said Toad.

Relating to Spider-Man at 19: I too am underemployed, unsure how to pursue girls, and trying to find my place in the adult world.

Relating to Galactus at 42: I am from an unrecognizable previous millennium, hungry all the time, everything hurts and I live with a tiny person who won’t do what I ask.

The Premier League is now 5 seconds of open play then 30 seconds of prepping for a set piece.

We can fix this with rule changes:
- Teams only get four set pieces per possession
- If the set pieces are bad, the other team gets the ball
- If they're good, they get four more
- Let's call them "downs"

This morning my wife was in the air on a flight from AUS to ATL, connecting to CVG. Many thousands of feet in the air somewhere over, like, Mississippi, and Delta canceled her ATL to CVG flight, then rebooked her onto a fresh flight from AUS, an airport from which she had recently departed. So...
Grateful for this Delta flight attendant for providing some clarity on the upcoming changes to flights during the holidays.

I think about this tweet no fewer than three times a week.
my favorite part of parenting is getting my kids ready for school. cajoling, repeating myself, grinding my teeth as I shake with rage — I love starting each day the angriest I’ve ever been
