U.S. Soccer’s Bizarre Twitter Rant Makes Me Want To Watch ‘LFG’ Even More

Released on June 24 on HBO Max, “LFG” is a documentary following members of the U.S. women’s national team in their fight for equal pay from the U.S. Soccer Federation. Based on the tweets from U.S. Soccer this week, I need to get an HBO Max subscription ASAP to see what has the USSF in such a tizzy.

LFG is the USWNT’s adopted slogan, an acronym for “Let’s Fucking Go!” The film, which debuted at the Tribeca Film Festival in June, appears to be “Let’s fucking go after USSF,” if a recent Twitter thread is anything to go by. 

Messi’s Teammates Shower Him With Wine And Affection On 34th Birthday

Footballers have frequently spoken about how the periods of “rest and relaxation” at major international tournaments are merely a euphemism for being bored out of their collective minds. It’s always a fascinating subplot to a month-long period spent holed up in a resort, doubly so during the time of Covid-19 — when leaving the hotel, or inviting someone inside, is bound to cause a national stir (see: Chile).

Lukaku And KDB: The History Of The Handshake

Romelu Lukaku and Kevin De Bruyne go together in Belgium's attack like peanut butter and jelly coming together to make the most timeless of sandwiches. They've built their impressive careers at separate clubs, but when they come together with Belgium there's little opponents can do to stop them. Having so much success between them, the two obviously had to create a celebratory handshake to go with it.

We go again. Less than a year after the first season of Ted Lasso dropped on Apple TV+, the Golden Globe award-winning show is scheduled to return on July 23 for a 12-episode second season.

Last we saw of Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) and AFC Richmond owner Rebecca Welton (Hannah Waddingham), the club had suffered the embarrassment of relegation to the Championship but the duo pledged to both earn promotion and then win the Premier League immediately after.

Take A Minute To Appreciate The BBC’s Euro 2020 TV Intro

ESPN’s coverage of Euro 2020 has been good so far. However, it's almost unsettling how much less laughter there is after spending the last few months with Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards on CBS Sports.

Richards is now part of the BBC’s coverage of the tournament (as well as Alex Scott) and providing some excellent viral moments.  

Scared Of Being Labeled Gambling, EA Sports Introduces Preview Packs To FIFA Ultimate Team

With more and more governments threatening legal action against EA Sports over the use of loot boxes (player packs) in modes like FIFA Ultimate Team, EA may have come across a workaround with FUT preview packs. Currently, FUT 21 players can preview packs before they choose to buy, which kinda sorta limits the gambling aspect of loot boxes. 

Tear-Jerking Moments As Belgium And Denmark Stop Play To Applaud Christian Eriksen

On Wednesday, Belgium’s Romelu Lukaku announced that his team planned to kick the ball out of play in the 10th minute of the game against Denmark to pay tribute to Christian Eriksen. The Eriksen tenth minute moment on Thursday was as beautiful as you could imagine.

MLS Hardest League in the World?? Higuaín Can't Keep Up

Former Argentinian forward Gonzalo Higuaín had low expectations coming to MLS but now is learning to respect the competition. The 33-year-old exclaimed he expected to play with a cigarette in his mouth, it was going to be that easy.

Through seven matches in the 2021 MLS season, Higuaín has four goals and one assist. He was quoted on Christain Vieri's Twitch live stream a few days ago saying, "I thought I would come to MLS and play with a cigarette in my mouth and instead it is difficult."
