I did not expect Landon Donovan and Tim Howard to go off like this on D.C. United's ownership but it's beyond deserved and appreciated that these guys care (when the owners seemingly don't)

"Take your profit and get out" is an A+ quote

From Unfiltered Soccer: "and it starts with (DCU) ownership for sure. Do you really care about this? And if not, take your profit and get out. The league is too mature now to have teams like this.”

“The other team in DC, the Washington Spirit? They’re the opposite."

Kaelan is excited for his new mobile stander. Standing is important for many reasons other than strength, bone density, and coordination. Did you know that transitioning from chair to stander helps with blood flow, digestion, and bladder/bowel function?

Hey everybody. Just spoke with the legend Tony Meola… he suffered a heart attack last night.

He’s in good spirits and doctors say he’ll be okay. He thanks everyone for the birthday wishes too

His biggest message, he wants to stress to us all: “Go get frequent check ups.”

❤️💪🏼

I’m willing to bet that most of us pay more per month in underused streaming/cable fees than the cost of an annual magazine or newspaper subscription (eg $50 NY Mag). Subscribe more, read more, support what matters to you, stop whining about paywalls

At the time, everyone, including Republicans, understood how bad it was. Then, brick by brick, they built a foundation of lies to justify doing what they know, deep down, to be wrong. Trump betrayed the country. And so do they.
