I don’t know what this woman was pitching in this conference call, but it’s a yes from me. I’m all in. Let’s produce 100,000. Shut 'em down, open up shop. Oh, no. That’s how Ruff Ryders roll.
Her ability to stay cool and collected in the face of what appears to be Querétaro’s Jair Pereira smashing into stuff is as impressive as an Edwardian cockerel.
Every former footballer can think back to their playing days and remember those games when the elements went wild. Sometimes you were about to pass out due to heat exhaustion, freeze to death in tundra-like weather or drown from a downpour of rain.
The professionals have to deal with the elements as well, as seen in this list of the worst weather football games ever.

Liga MX was one of the last leagues in the world to suspend play due to the coronavirus pandemic. The league told fans to have fun and be safe while hosting matches the weekend of March 14.

With social distancing coming to the fore, many are turning to video games to pass the time. In turn, many are realizing — or just remembering — how aggravating the FIFA 20 experience can be. After almost 20 years of the game myself, I can hardly look at it without feeling like Roy Keane at a convention of TikTok influencers.
The inquiry that led to the detention of former Brazil player Ronaldinho enters a new stage this week as prosecutors focus on what they believe is a money laundering scheme involving the businesswoman who invited him to Paraguay.

Jan Vertonghen's family was robbed at knifepoint in their London home while the Tottenham Hotspur defender was on Champions League duty against RB Leipzig in Germany on Tuesday night, the BBC reported.
