PSG is pretty scary, but I guess scoring two goals at the Emirates isn’t for everyone.

This is nuts.

No mention of any negative consequence to the guys who colluded to get it wrong. Almost as if they were just following orders.

100%, Arsenal need several upgrades to get over the hump, that is definitely one.

This month has been an embarrassment of riches.

No shortage of action in this Barcelona-Inter game.

First price increase in 6 years. It’s hard not to feel victimized:

Meanwhile, still no announcement regarding ticket allocations to each club (the next ball-stomp coming Palace’s way) or when they will be made available. They haven’t even announced the fucking kick-off time.

The final is two weeks on Saturday. It’s not like they didn’t know it was coming.

Yet another reason to love In-N-Out Burger:

“LeBron noncommittal but reportedly expected to opt in for 2025-26
NBA”

I find this hilarious.

There is no way Lebron retires without a ginourmous farewell tour.

English clubs had quite the night in European soccer.

Wild second period in Denver sees the Stars enter down 2-0 and leave leading 4-3.

Got even wilder in the 3rd, including an own goal.

Avs win 7-4.

Game 7 on the way.

I still reserve the right to be absolutely terrified before every important game.

I love how the experts on the official F1 broadcast refer to the fake marina at the Miami GP circuit as “the fake marina”.

You may remember me mentioning that, before Palace got its shit together, Chelsea’s south London-located academy had a free run at the ocean of talent in the concrete Catalonia.

Yeah, about that…

“Concrete Catalonia”? I’ve never heard that before, although I’m clearly not plugged into the London soccer scene.

Coined by the press to describe the insane amount of talent that has come out of the area and continues to be produced.

These kids grow up playing “cage football”. It’s akin to that period when the NBA was dominated by street ballers.

When was that?

Somehow I hadn’t seen Lamine Yamal play before this week’s Champions League game. He’s ridiculous! And only 17?

I was thinking of Iverson and his ilk.

Meanwhile, good early signs in the Rockets game. An early foul call on Curry and now a flagrant on Draymond.
