I’m always wary of heroes and all that, but good goddamn if Ms. Rachel isn’t turning into a latter day Mister Rogers.
This article uses 13 statistics to eliminate teams on the grounds that “no team that has x has ever won the World Cup” until only the US is left.
Well, here’s stat 14: No team has ever won the World Cup with a foreign-born manager. (Poch is Argentinian.)
Therefore, no team will win the World Cup.

Think the U.S. isn't a World Cup favorite? Think again. Here are 13 stats that point to one conclusion: Team USA will win it all.
My sister in Democrats, Farms, and Labor, how many of the people in this photo responded to the ICE invasion of our state by voting to give them even more money and even fewer guardrails?
Cute photo ops aren't cute when they normalize supporting brutality against our fellow Minnesotans.
I will say this; if the US wins the World Cup, it will be the second-greatest coaching job of Pochettino’s career.
Poch’s first job was with RCD Espanyol. He was hired in January when Espanyol was in 18th. They were in last and 8 points from safety with 10 games left in March. Espanyol closed out on an 8-1-1 run that saw them finish TENTH. Got to see it live, and it was incredible.
Poch was the third manager that year and was very much the sacrificial club legend. The vibes were RANCID. Eight points with 10 to go and three teams to pass isn’t a gap; it’s a chasm. They were dead to rights. But by April, they were invincible and pulled off the greatest of great escapes.
I want to be really clear about this. If you’re on a jury, you can IN NO WAY decide that a person who is guilty is not guilty simply because the whole thing is bullshit. This would be bad because such a verdict would be unreviewable. It would be as if the JURY were NULLIFYING the verdict. I mean…
Happy National Seersucker Day! Great to join my colleagues from both sides of the aisle in kicking off summer with this time-honored tradition.
"Everyone in Belfast simply wants to be Irish" remains the most deranged take, but I'd never say "Political violence in Northern Ireland could have been prevented if everyone had a gun" didn't give it a run for its money.
This week, I’m visiting my folks.
I’m currently at Dierbergs and my cart filled with nothing but Zia’s salad dressing, Red Hot Ripplets, and Vess Whistle.
