The good thing about the FG is that now you can kick it to them and they need like 20 yards to get those 3 points back.

Instead of a Sabres Sicko meetup, we should all do an FC Buffalo home game meetup next summer and support a team who actually cares about it's fans.
Sometimes they have a men's and woman's double header day and I'd highly recommend that!

Who will make the USMNT's 2026 World Cup roster? Mauricio Pochettino's good headache
Cardoso or Roldan? Pepi or Agyemang? Scally or Trusty? McKennie or Berhalter? Mauricio Pochettino is going to have a lot of trouble choosing who makes the cut in his squad for the 2026 World Cup.

Clearly U.S. Soccer saw a soothsayer a few years ago who said "Berhalter will win you the World Cup" and they just totally slept on it being his son.

Is there any logical reason people post 180-degree flipped selfies/photos?
Honest curiosity here. Whatever perceived improvement there is, it can't be worse than the lettering on your shirt/hat/tattoo being backward.

Mauricio Pochettino cannot waste any more time on major experiments for this USMNT ahead of World Cup
There's a home World Cup coming up in nine months, the talent in the pool is arguably as good as ever, and the USMNT's hope tank feels pretty low right now, doesn't it?

Been almost a year since #USMNT played a game outside of the US, and they are 7W-1D-5L (about to be six)
They've beaten Venezuela, Costa Rica, Jamaica, T&T, Saudi Arabia, Haiti, Guatemala.
Lost to Panama, Canada, Turkiye, Swiss, Mexico (soon South Korea)
Find the good win.

Rest in peace to a great entertainer, the Tiny Tot of the Kilowatt, Art Wander. I spent 100s of hours as a kid listening to him on WGR and there's no question he made me want to do the job.
I got to meet and thank him exactly once and I'll always be grateful for that. What a #Buffalo legend.
