Huge announcement from Gov. Hochul:

Next phase of 2nd Av subway expansion would cross west on 125th St all the way to Broadway, connecting to busy stations on the 2/3, A/B/C/D, and 1 lines.

This would provide much needed crosstown access for 100s of thousands of uptown residents. Truly exciting.

The furor over 2026 World Cup ticket prices raised a fascinating question:

How did sports tickets get so expensive in the United States — all while remaining relatively modest in the UK, Europe & elsewhere?

Spoke to economists, sports execs, etc. for answers @theathletic.com:
How U.S. sports tickets got so expensive – and why it shocks the rest of the world
World Cup ticket prices are symptomatic of a greater issue across sports in America, where enough people have proven they'll pay in excess

Overheard in the hall from FIFA people behind me: if a matchup in a group has two relatively lesser teams, and on that day there’s a choice of two stadiums to put it in (which there is in the group stage), it could be moved to the smaller of the two venues.

We'll see tomorrow if that proves true.

3. FIFA doesn’t assign seats until closer to the tournament - so how the hell does any of these third-party seats know where you are sitting?! The answer is they don’t. You think you are buying front row seats but you will probably won’t get those.

FIFA has raised ticket prices for dozens of 2026 World Cup games, in some cases by more than 20%.

Most upper-deck tickets to the World Cup final are now $5,055 or $3,450.

Increases for two of three USMNT games.

Details @theathletic.com:
2026 World Cup ticket prices jump; FIFA targets knockout rounds, USMNT games, cohosts
Another purchasing window has opened for 2026 World Cup tickets, and dynamic pricing is in full effect
