If I remember right, Paul McCartney made up his bass part for "Something" on the spot (over a couple sessions).
Dude just casually invented perfection on a random Tuesday and went home.

How much to get a roof over Allianz?
Wilfried Nancy on potential calendar flip:
“If they don’t do it, there is no logical thought behind the desire of MLS to become a really good league. Simple as that.
If you don’t make the change, you can talk & talk, but it’s impossible people overseas will take us seriously."

Sources: MLS owners are expected to vote on flipping to fall-spring calendar at Thursday's BOG meeting. Could happen as soon as 2027.
Also: Changes to competition format expected too, including single league table + divisions.

I do not love the Monday timing, but I don’t hate it being a standalone game either.
Update: Fourth-seeded #MNUFC will play at top-seeded San Diego FC at 9 p.m. CT Monday, Nov. 24.
Context: #MLSCupPlayoffs schedules had said conference semifinals would be Nov. 22 or 23, so this particular matchup will be a shift from that.

I was so sad when he left. His time at the 10 under Lampard was legitimately great football…he never got a chance to replicate that under Dyche. Think he would’ve thrived with Moyes.
Alex Iwobi is set to make his 300th Premier League appearance.
The Fulham midfielder is the first Nigerian to reach this milestone.
Four other African players have made 300+ PL appearances:
🇨🇮 Kolo Toure - 353
🇪🇬 Mohamed Salah - 309
🇬🇭 Jordan Ayew - 305
🇨🇮 Wilfried Zaha - 305

I’ll never not be amazed by how EVERY NBA player makes, like, 95% of their jumpers in warmups. It’s mind blowing to watch in-person.

Not sure what I expected from the MJ halftime bit. I loved the free throw story, but I think i expected it to be a bit longer of a segment? Idk.

I've seen Good Will Hunting a thousand times, but Minnie Driver's performance hit me extra hard this time, for some reason. So vulnerable...you can feel her nerves every time she puts herself out there.
