Yanks in the UK & Europe

Pulisic had the assist on Milan's goal yesterday in their 1-0 win. He now has a goal contribution in 7 straight matches, the only player in Europe's top 5 leagues to have a streak that long this season.

Weah and McKennie both played for Juventus in their 2-0 win. Juve has moved into 3rd place in Serie A.

And in some great news, Tyler Adams came on in the 66' for Bournemouth and helped preserve a 2-1 over Manchester City. I've read some comments that Adams was the best player on the field after he came on. Huge win for Bournemouth (and Liverpool 😁).

Midweek, Matt Turner got a win for Crystal Palace making 8 saves against Aston Villa in a Carabao Cup 3rd round match.

UAB game thread

Our conference will have a NIL salary cap by 2025 per Tim Pernetti. That likely won't change a thing in terms of competitive advantage or disadvantage to TU since we'll be buying in to that model. What we have going on right now is a textbook case of escalation of commitment... Throwing more time, money and resources at a failed outcome (fatso as head coach and a team with no heart / will). The administration can choose to cut its losses and move forward in a better direction (fire Wilson and seek out a coach with some kind of specialization / edge), or continue to allow the program to atrophy and founder. We are terrible at every position, and every position coach bears some responsibility, so this really is a unique opportunity to clean house from top to bottom and reinvent the culture, energy, program and product on the field. Wilson is an unmitigated failure, outwardly and inwardly.

2024 Election prediction/discussion

Yes. If Harris is up 3 in Iowa she will win states like Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. I also like her chances in North Carolina.
You are looking at public polling. Where pollsters have a greater incentive to not be wrong than they do to be right. It skews results. Internal polling has the incentive to be right so the client comes back. It’s closer in Wisconsin than people on the left want to talk about. Trump was up six in Iowa and would have lost Wisconsin if Clinton had a cup of coffee there. Though early voting is showing a wider gender gap in Wisconsin than predicted, which favors Harris, she’s taken a bath on high school diploma males in blue collar jobs. If those men vote on Election Day in even just slightly above predicted numbers she will lose it.

Brad made the decision and Rick preferred another candidate. That is what I was told last week by a big donor. I don’t really care at this point just info by someone in the know.
Either he doesn't put any credence in what anybody says, (in this case you) or he just can't help himself from bitching at the world. They are all doing it wrong is his mantra. I think he saw what you said the first time, and blew it off as poppycock.

I’ll be there for both games. It’s like the train wreck that you can’t turn away from.
I was shopping with my wife today during game time. Checked the score before I started our drive home. I literally busted out hysterically laughing when I saw the 59 line for UAB.... like, it wasn't surprising..... it was just so morbidly, ironically, depressing I didn't know what else to do.

Fire him TOMORROW!

TU couldn't handle Temple and UAB. There are no more wins on the schedule, and a couple thrashings are more likely. The lack of purpose and performance today was shocking and actually unexpected after last week's thrilling win. No phase of the game was played with any passion. It appears KW has lost his team, and the fans have another lost season.

Seems like Trump may have had a much more involved relationship with Epstein than anyone yet realized....

Also, is he practicing for the next time he sees Putin? Possibly your next president of the United States everyone.... Very distinguished. I'm sure Ronnie and Nancy Reagan would be proud.
