Lionel Messi at every World Cup from 2006 to 2026
The greatest to ever play the game has graced the World Cup for two decades. Having made his debut at just 18, he now makes an unprecedented sixth World Cup appearance at the age of 38, four years after finally becoming a World Cup winner.
He is the first player to play in six World Cups.
He has played more World Cup matches than any other player in history.
I have started following the journey of a German soccer fan in the US for the world cup
@laeffy the euros have found buc-ee's
why don’t they just score the goal? are they stupid?
the football analysis we all need
God, can you imagine someone from Finland (or wherever) heading to a Midwestern state fair and eating every variety of fried thing imaginable?
I can, and arguably I must.
I always think that sport events, especially international ones, are primarily about fun and cultural exchange and hanging out together; it gets lost sometimes when people pay too much attention to keeping scores, but joy and building bridges should be more important. So glad this seems to be happening right now!
Oooh, they introduced Scotland and Haiti to tailgating in Foxboro!! You just TRY and stop a New England sports fan from tailgating at Gillette!!
Kilts at Red Sox games!! While they did not understand the game of baseball they had a whale of a time anyway and did soccer chants the whole time! 🤭

HTML isn't only for people working in the tech field. It's for everyone. Learn how to make a website from scratch in this beginner friendly
if you're learning HTML for any reason, i can't recommend HTML for people highly enough. it's a fantastic introduction to HTML and CSS targeted towards beginners who aren't technically inclined, and it isn't patronizing towards the reader for that. it's a very relaxed and kind (but informative) resource that even i reference from time to time (and i consider myself pretty good with semantic HTML).
definitely check it out if you're interested in making a personal site, or working with HTML at all.
There's this weird tendency among fandom types where they'll take a character, and insist that they are fans of them, before changing their design, age, pronouns, backstory, blood type, species, hometown, favorite color, zodiac sign, medical history, and every other facet of their being.
They will then violently insist that this version is superior to the canon one and act like they "fixed" them and it's like. Buddy that's not the same character anymore. That's just your own oc commiting identity fraud. Like. I get the desire to experiment with different interpretations of a story. But first of all it's okay to just make an original character if that's what you really want to do. And second of all, are you even really a fan of the character you "fixed" if they're a completely different person afterwards?
Like. Idk dude for somebody who claims to be a fan you sure don't seem to like them as they are :/
Gonna remember "buddy that's not the character that's your OC committing identity fraud."

i need everyone to get into college football right now i am dying to talk about the texas tech situation. this is the kind of thing that will be referenced for the next 100 years. there will be documentaries and biopics about this.
no one asked but here
texas tech's quartback, brendan sorsby, was investigated for sports gambling. i know sports betting is all the rage right now, but athletes themselves are not allowed to do it. it is Rule Number 1 and it is the highest priority rule for the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), who governs all athletic programs at about 1,100 colleges in the US.
the invesitagetion of sorsby revealed that, not only did he place more than 9,000 sports bets when he himself was a collegiate athlete, but 40 of those bets were AGAINST HIS OWN TEAM when he was playing at indiana university. immediately, this threatens the integrity of the sport, and especially because indiana is the hottest team right now as the defending national champion.
the NCAA, which is largely a sham organization these days (they've truly lost their grasp and college athletics are the wild west now) actually enforced their Number 1 Rule and told sorsby his career is over, that he would never play college football again (and, subsequently, that he would never get drafted into the NFL because his college career was cut short).
well, because the NCAA is a husk of its former self, sorsby and texad tech immediately took this to court. MANY athletes have learned these past few seasons that if you can find a judge who's a fan of your team, you can get any NCAA ruling overturned. that's exactly what texas tech did. they filed a suit in Lubbock, where the university is located and where every judge is an alum of texas tech. so sorsby was granted an injunction and will now only be suspended for the first 2 games od the 2026 season (which are alwayd against no-name teams that will be destroyed regardless of who's suspended).
every other school in the country immediately went on the defensive because this is a very clear integretiy issue. so nebraska and georgia (sic em dawgs) released statements saying that all currently-scheduled competitions witb Texas Tech in ANY sport will be canceled and there will be no future schedulings. at least 3 of the major conferences (SEC, Big 10, Big 12) , who account for almost all division 1 sports teams in the country, are also in discussions about cancelling comtests. Texas Tech is part of the Big 12, and there is serious talk of all other teams in the conference shutting texas tech out.
now would probably be time where i say that texas tech is one of the wealthiest programs in college football becaise there is a single billionaire alumnus pouring money into the program with hopes of essentially buying a championship. so texas techs integrity has always been questionable. anyway, the university president put oit a statement that he doesnt care that sorseby violated regulation and that texas tech will sue any school that refuses to play them because it jeopardizes their championship prospects if they're umable to play any games.
this is all just startomg but its so juicy and delicious. the NCAA is going to crumble to dust if they cannot get this injunction overturned. schools like georgia and nebraska have plenty of money so a suit isnt necessarily a concern, but this will absolutely change college football forever. i cant stop reading about it.
update on this: texas tech is claiming that every school who has/is considering cancelling all contests is "afraid" that texas tech is better than them. what's funny about this is that sorsby's stats are average. he is not good enough for this kind of protection. many schools who have already cancelled or are considering it have much better quarterbacks than sorsby. also, texas tech's head coach had said that it's actually ok that sorsby bet against his own team because it "its not murder or assault."
the attorney general of texas has threatened to investigate the Big 12 conference if they sanction Texas Tech
the claim is now that texas texh university just cares so much about brendan sorsbys mental health that they have to sue everyone who calls this an integrity violation. any other school who wouldnt defend an athlete that committed this violation "doesnt care about mental health"
someone has done the impossible and made me give one-half a shit about football.
like I feel kinda like I'm watching that dude who does vintage 1950s recipes involving jello and canned tuna in the same dish. this has everything.
texas being bad
a college choosing to value football above decency, ethics, credibility, or any other virtue
a mediocre white man getting support he doesn't deserve thrown at him in amounts far beyond strategic wisdom
judicial corruption
sports donor corruption
screaming tantrums at reasonable consequences
utterly unhinged abuse of the legal system in pursuit of avoiding said consequences
multiple college sports systems electing to take their ball and go home, literally
texas being extremely butthurt about same
football drama escaping containment to other sports like a world of warcraft plague
amazingly, spectacularly, offensively wrong assertions made over twitter that redeem themselves slightly by giving you secondhand embarrassment for the people behind them, who deserve nothing of the sort
the spectacular looming consequences of the burgeoning overprecedence of sports gambling in america, approaching chicxulub proportions
the domino meme with one mid-tier college quarterback's bad decisions at one end and the escalation of college football big feelings into world war three on the other
the ncaa, multiple major-division collegiate sports programs, and a solid consensus of moral judgment and legal precedent against the practice of athletes betting on their own games, versus texas football fans, whose reputation of course precedes them
a surprisingly even fight
This doesn’t really matter, but Sorsby didn’t bet against his team, he bet on them to win, and he didn’t play. Betting on pre-Cignetti Indiana to win anything is somehow not the most questionable decision in all of this.
I kind of miss the impulsivity that certain spaces used to allow. oh you want a hair cut today? hairdresser in the corner can fit you in before her 2 o’clock. tattoo of a cobra… sure leg or arm? even concerts, back when you could go to the box office thirty mins before any show. not saying these things don’t exist at all, but everything feels booked five months in advance and 10x more expensive
what annoys me about explaining evolution to people who don’t think it’s real is that everyone’s idea of how it works seems to be from this
Whereas the reality is far more like
