The #Vikings begin their first-of-its-kind international swing today in Dublin, before traveling to London. They might not be the last.

Why the NFL’s global ambitions often go through the Vikings
The Vikings have embraced games in other countries more openly than many teams, leading to an unprecedented road trip to Dublin and London.

I’m not a vibes based pick expert like @thewilderthings.bsky.social but having the Jake from State Farm actor do your pre game pump up gimmick explains a lot about why the vibes are so putrid in Arizona tonight. There was truly no one else to call?

It’s not simply important to denounce political violence because it looks bad not to. It’s the right thing to do on the merits. Even more specifically to this moment it’s important because the forces of fascism are inherently better at political violence than the forces of civic democracy.

I don’t know if @pablo.show gets a commission or not but he should because his PTFO episode with @sethwickersham.bsky.social convinced me to preorder the book and it came today! Can’t wait to read it!

Something I wish every conference did that only the SEC does is adding an extra graduate patch to the conference one for guys who get their degrees. I just think it’s neat idk

My cat is 13 years old give or take, and has never shown interest in the tv until the past few weeks.
The show? The Bills Hard Knocks season.
Guess my old lady is a member of #BillsMafia. I’m not sure where I went wrong as an owner but I won’t deny her her fandom.

@minakimes.bsky.social am I crazy for believing that attempting to ice a kicker would be more successful on their first attempt of a game than at the end of a game? First half timeouts are kinda worthless in the grand scheme and a kicker who misses usually misses more

How much do you think it eats Notre Dame fans up inside that the first American pope has zero connection to Notre Dame. Is Notre Dame even the most Catholic Catholic university anymore?

Call me crazy, but it really, really feels like Wave ownership are having a fire sale of talent and assets in anticipation of selling the team off completely/relocating the team elsewhere
Jaedyn Shaw is set to join the NC Courage, sources confirmed to The Equalizer's @jeffkassouf.bsky.social. In return, San Diego Wave will receive a large sum of money that should place the deal among some of the largest intra-league transfers in NWSL history.

I feel like we’re skipping quite a few people in the “got Americans to actually consider watching soccer” line with this one. Pele, virtually any of the 99er starting XI, Donovan, Cobi, Beckham just off the top of my head
Inter Miami’s Lionel Messi will receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President Joe Biden.
Yes that’s a real thing that’s happening that I checked like 13 times because it reads like fan-fiction.
