"When we declare we've won they've essentially surrendered" is an... interesting way to try to avoid the embarrassment of the "mission accomplished" banner.

Boston's World Cup games still in doubt after funding shortfall proposal rejected

This is a really important story. The small, but mighty select board of Foxboro, MA are pushing back against FIFA, Kraft Sports, and the Boston host committee for the World Cup by refusing to provide a license until their town gets necessary $ for security funding

My one gripe with what was otherwise a pretty flawless roll out for the new app (actual gripes about user experience aside), I really would like to purchase an Arsenal emblazoned corner flag ⛳️

Siege Mentality ‘Mik Arteta’s red army!’ Mik Arteta’s red army!’ A chant that enveloped the away end at the AMEX Arena on Wednesday evening. It’s an old staple that has dropped out of the songbook in recent seasons, presumably because the intonation on Mikel Arteta’s name does not lend itself to the tune quite as nicely as […] The post Siege Mentality appeared first on Arseblog ... an Arsenal blog.

It'll be inevitable. Paramount/WB is going to be carrying $80b in debt after this merger, $60b from the buyout alone.

Assume they're getting 7% interest rates (which they're not, the debt is rated junk), that's $4b in debt payments every year just for the merger.

That’s an interesting reframe which I like and makes sense

If there was a simple test for claustrophobia it should be accidentally putting on a hooded sweatshirt backwards. Pure terror

Yeah, it sounds like they had unanimity from owners which rarely happens and when it does it’s about cash. A relegation playoff feels crueler to me. It’s one think to dangle a fat bag of cash for teams to fight about, but the opposite is true with relegation. It’s like the devil dangling oblivion

Doing the same for relegation is interesting. I do wonder if widening the numbers of teams fighting for promotion could help with improving tv deals in the future. Though, if a miracle does happen and an 8th place team does earn promotion, they will likely get slaughtered in the PL

Massive appreciation for Havertz today.

His sub made a massive difference towards Arsenal's ability to grab a foothold in this match.
