Every day I am driven further and further away from engaging with this tournament or any aspect of the ecosystem that is built on top of it.

And I hope Mexico wins.
US host cities facing at least $250m shortfall due to new Fifa deal

Fifa take virtually all WC revenue, and costs supposed to be covered by sponsors

But cities can’t do big deals as, eg, convenience store Wawa cuts across Fifa deal with McDonald’s

Bears why are you like this against this dumb team
December 8, 2025 at 12:23 AM
Knew when Hincapie didn’t drop central but chased the ball we were in for trouble 🙃

The US is hosting the men’s WC next year, the draw is tomorrow, and the biggest sports story on ESPN involving soccer is about Trinity Rodman’s contract 🤷‍♀️

Thought the offense never adjusted to Chelsea’s defensive strategy, suspecting Leo’s injury has a lot to do with that.

I’m about to spend so much money on Bears gear. 🤑

Eagles fans booing every stop by the Bears is the best outcome of any play in my experience as a Bears fan

Cleaned the house, picked up food, got a peloton ride in, and had 2 glasses of wine in before the first football game kicked off. Hugely successful thanksgiving morning
November 27, 2025 at 6:06 PM
My singular weather ask for thanksgiving is for it to be sunny and cool and crisp enough to wear a sweater outside when helping people bring things inside upon arrival. And once again, the weather delivers. 🥲

My friends husband’s buddy suggested to his pal that they show the Spirit game tonight at his bar. He was like “not sure who they are but okay” and the place is packed. 🥲😊😗

You put teams in 4 cities, none of which were Chicago (has 2 MLB teams and broader metro area was home to the OG league!), and then posted up games a few hours outside Chicago???

Who is making these decisions and why
Springfield, Illinois will be the home to the WPBL in its inaugural season. The league—which will feature four teams in year one—will play all of its games at Robin Roberts Stadium.

Good morning good morning. Are both of my teams in first place in their respective leagues/divisions at the same time?

Yes 🤠

About to have stadiums full of the world’s biggest morons next summer. Incredible.
Another price increase for the 2026 World Cup…

Sensing strong demand, FIFA raised the cost of many tickets to record-setting heights — the first large-scale implementation of its “variable pricing” strategy.

I can’t believe I fought with espn and logged in right as KC equalized.

Sorry bats 🫠

@espn.com can you use your rate increases to fix your garbage app? I have spectrum, I have espn unlimited, I have espn+…can’t login and access content.

What’s it like to support teams that don’t give up equalizers in injury time 🫠
