A casual reminder that the US Soccer Federation HQ is in Chicago
It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.

Sometimes I think about how the *good* outcome is that, for the rest of my life, our country is involved in a mass de-Nazification project. If we're lucky, that's what being an American is for the next 40 years.

Advent's Lent-like waiting period is exactly why churches do not immediately whip out Christmas trees at the end of Ordinary Time. It's not just about being minimalist, but following a tradition of when the church celebrates what.

I call the US group “the group of teams that Cristian Roldan dominated.”

Maybe Botafogo gets the last spot?
The U.S. also beat its second World Cup opponents, Paraguay, 2-1 in a recent friendly. Which.

I won't say that we wouldn't have it any other way, but it could've gone worse.
Everton are the first team in Premier League history to win a game in spite of having a player sent off for fighting with a teammate. #EFC

This sounds reasonable but is 100% wrong. Whether you or agree or disagree with a study is completely immaterial. What matters is whether the study was conducted properly and generates valid results. And it's impolitic to say but it's true: you have to have some level of expertise to judge that.
