Bad Bunny was working as a grocery bagger and cashier when he started his career. There are an unfathomable and fantastic tutorials for how to do anything and everything. There are plenty of ways to get access to free or cheap production tools.
What do we think about the assertion in this meme? I know, we think it's asinine, but I'm looking for specific arguments as to why it's asinine.

The Sounders have made a few additions this offseason, but these guys could be like new players this year.

Apparently the Sounders still had room to convert cash to GAM as all of the $2.5M they received from Atletico Madrid is not due in 2026, which helps explain this a bit more. They will also retain 20% of Baker-Whiting’s sell-on.

If the add-ons aren’t significant and there’s not a substantial sell-on %, then this is a bad deal for Seattle imo.
I hope they at least have a target LB already lined up

🇺🇸🟡 Sources: Nashville SC is finalizing deal to acquire USYNT wingback Reed Baker-Whiting from the Seattle Sounders. @elrolonw.bsky.social 1st reported
I’m told cash trade around $800k + add ons
Baker-Whiting, 20, has made 79 first team apps. Plays either fullback spot
Featured at U-20 World Cup

According @elrolonw.bsky.social, Nashville is close to finalizing a deal to acquire Reed Baker-Whiting. I have to assume this is a “cash-for-player trade.”

Necaxa have now won all three games in which Leyva went the full 90. Those 9 points are their only points so far this season
Necaxa have two wins in the clausura, both have involved 3+ goals and an opposing player getting sent off. Those two games have also been the only ones where Leyva played the full 90 minutes. Makes you think
Danny Leyva starts again, but this time as the 6 for Necaxa

The more I think about it and look into him, the better I feel about this move. I really like the potential of him as a 9 rather than operating out wide for Defiance. He’s got areas to work on, but what he’s already doing at 19 is intriguing. www.sounderatheart.com/2026/02/taco...
