I’ll expect a glowing post from F*brizio R*mano about this exciting new opportunity if it comes about 🙄

The only thing more disgusting than abusers thinking they can lie low for a while and then slink back into football, is the fact that it often works.
Shame on Bayern if they are actually considering this. There is never a “right time” for forgetting the club’s values.

Jérôme Boateng tells BILD:
he will return to Säbener Straße soon for an internship under Vincent Kompany: "I've already spoken with him. I can do an internship at Bayern, and I'm really looking forward to it. We just need to find the right time."

I was too, only because it’s on the same channel as the Germany game 😛

Is this discourse happening on Twitter? I still barely see any Spurs Women chat at all on here. Though to be fair, I didn’t contribute much this morning because I was half asleep.

Well, could have been worse. Still a bit depressed by our subs (minus Olivia) vs Chelsea’s but at least we held them to one goal and the goal difference didn’t dip into the negative again.
Kind of an unfortunate quirk of WSL loading that we don’t have another league game until November 🙃

I really don’t know about that sub, Martin…

We had already conceded three to City by halftime, so I’m considering the clean sheet against Chelsea at the break as a positive sign. Hoping we see Olivia Holdt sub on soon.
Also, I remain deeply upset about the Alyssa Thompson transfer to Chelsea.

Always take up the chance to see a beloved band from your youth live. I saw Franz Ferdinand tonight and they have absolutely still got it. Excellent energy! I think Alex Kapranos could probably convince me to join a cult.

In March, Bethany Balcer stepped away from soccer to focus on her mental health and rediscover her love of the game. Tonight, on World Mental Health Day, she scored in extra time to split points & keep Louisville’s playoff dreams alive ❤️

I really thought shifting from Alen Marcina's direct and physical style would result in better luck in the injury department for #Defend210, but that has not proven the case. #USL-C

Jonathan Check @checkj.bsky.social · 3d

Well, the good news on the preliminary SAFC injury report is Lucio Berron is back! 🙂
...The bad news is that Mitchell Taintor, Santiago Patiño and Juan Agudelo have been added to it, almost going off the page 🙃 Maybe some of those names come back, buuut... #Defend210 #TULvSA

now we just need to trust FIFA to do the right thing. cool!

UEFA approves league games outside home countries — but just this once!

UEFA's latest decision sent out some mixed signals, to say the least.

Early #LetterboxdFriday because I have accumulated another #LastFourWatched ahead of time thanks to the free trial of Kino that I’m enjoying (mostly lol).

A graphic showing my last four logged films on Letterboxd (from most recent to least recent): The Oyster Princess (2.5 stars); Scrapper (3.5 stars); Nosferatu (rewatch, 3 stars); The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (4 stars)

Kind of relieved I didn’t get to watch the Frauen game cuz yiiikes. There are some significant injury caveats but at the same time, it’s been obvious for a while that we’re not making the leap to compete with the best teams in the CL.

If I were being cynical I would say it’s just an excuse to put less effort into the broadcasts… But seriously, we still don’t get a proper halftime show most of the time.

“There can be no compromise with those who want us dead.” The Texas GOP have passed laws causing pregnant people to die, oversee a foster care system in which kids die, watched as hundreds died when the grid failed, were in charge this summer during the fatal floods, I could go on and on and on.

Citing the “martyrdom” of Charlie Kirk, Texas AG Ken Paxton says his office is pursuing sweeping undercover investigations into “leftist” groups. “To those demented souls who seek to kill, steal, and destroy our country, know this: you cannot hide, you cannot escape, and justice is coming."

"Leftist political terrorism is a clear and present danger. Corrupted ideologies like transgenderism and Antifa are a cancer on our culture and have unleashed their deranged and drugged-up foot soldiers on the American people," said Attorney General Paxton. "The martyrdom of Charlie Kirk marks a turning point in America.
There can be no compromise with those who want us dead. To that end, I have directed my office to continue its efforts to identify, investigate, and infiltrate these leftist terror cells. To those demented souls who seek to kill, steal, and destroy our country, know this: you cannot hide, you cannot escape, and justice is coming."
The radical Left has incubated an environment where political violence is not only justified but celebrated and praised. In July, nearly two dozen armed leftists connected to various Texas-based Antifa-like groups ambushed an Immigration and Customs Enforcement ("ICE") facility in Alvarado, Texas. On September 10, 2025, a leftist assassin connected to the radical transgender movement murdered Charlie Kirk because of Kirk's bold support for truth, love of country, and unshakable faith. Two weeks later, another deranged leftist opened fire at an ICE facility in Dallas.
President Donald Trump has officially designated Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization and instructed his administration to "utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations — especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa." Building on President Trump's bold actions, Attorney General Paxton has instructed his office to initiate sweeping investigations into radical leftist organizations engaged in or providing support to those performing political violence.

Exactly. If they were going to do a whip-around show that could actually be useful, but nobody can focus on that many games at once and have meaningful takeaways.
