Oh girl that already happened halfway through the season. Pam sent me the email about it and I was like “fuck no I know what this is” and she’s like “no it’s just the one game when the coach is out of town” and I was like “PAM YOU IDIOT WE DO NOT WANT THIS”

Practice is over. All the kids run to the playground because that’s what this is ultimately about. All the parents are talking to eachother about something but I’m sitting here eating crackers and skeeting because I have enough white friends. Not interested, thanks.

Someone’s kid next to me said a bad word and their parent is NOT HAVING IT. Yikes. Last night while Pam was getting drunk at CMA with her co-workers, Nora said “shit” and I was like “that’s a grown-up word, you can’t say it until middle school” and she was like “oh okay.” Dad of the year.

They are scrimmaging kids against coaches, and as I have predicted, they have put Nora’s lanky ass into goal. She has allowed zero goals and helped seven teammates up who have fallen down. She reminds me of Eloy Room if he cared about others.

By the way this is a stream of consciousness skeet thread from Lil’ Blasters (?) Soccer League practice.

Just like her award-winning father, she’ll avoid confrontation at all costs. They’re going to make her into a keeper or a CB because she’s a tall ass beast of a woman. It will happen. I hope that someday she hates the Crew as much as I do. They killed Crew Cat.

Nora just kinda runs around out there. She back tracks, she’s really good at that. Defensive pursuit angles, let me tell you, she’s fuckin’ dominant. But she had no idea the end line exists. She’ll run to the parking lot and never directly confront an offensive player. I respect that.

Nora’s soccer team is like 13 girls & 2 boys, and the boys are consistently the worst players on the field. The dad of the worst boy, who is a great kid who has no interest in sports whatsoever, is the parent who is the most invested in yelling from at his kid from the sideline. I don’t like that.

ANYWAY, their latest baby Coco failed miserably out of her program today, and she is coming home.

SHE. IS. COMING. HOME.

As for me and my house, we will celebrate the small victories. ✊

Not that this matters AT ALL, but for context, they’re a childless couple. I might be the closest thing they have to a kid, and we all know that me existing is never going to make anyone not unhappy, so yeah. Whenever they “graduate” a dog, my heart breaks for them in a very specific way.

My aunt and uncle are the type of sick sluts that train puppies to become, like, leader dogs or whatever? You know what I mean. Anyway, their entire life is falling in love with dogs and then being emotionally slaughtered when their babies leave them to perform the most noble-ass task on earth.

Listen, I’m not saying that it’s time to start watching the VERY FAMOUS Crew internet thing, but if you haven’t in a while, it’s our day and maybe you should. That’s all I’m saying.

Honestly, the dumbest thing that ever happened during STC was MLS2ATX saying that there was a thing called “supporter arts”

Because of that, I made this

Zero point zero lies detected. Fuck rich people now and forever more. Save the Crew is a lesson of us rejecting the nonsense that we were raised to believe. Love that you’re here with us brother.

On this #SaveTheCrew day, I think it’s important to acknowledge that though Columbus, Ohio still ostensibly has Columbus Crew - the ownership, the stewardship of the club, has never been in worse hands, has never been held by worse people than Jimmy and Dee Haslam and Dr. Pete Edwards.
