It’s the height of MAGA-style arrogance to believe that we can be a dominate force in the world, with our D-level athletes, if we just got out of our own way. Athleticism isn’t only about being big, strong and fast. It’s also about body control, coordination, and muscle memory. I am not talking about composing a team…

You have it backwards. Athleticism fills in the gaps for when technique and awareness are similar. Superior athleticism doesn’t negate skill or technique. American soccer would be better if a John Wall or a Bryce Harper or an Odell Beckham were specialized in soccer instead of their respective sports. There are…

53% of white women voted for him. Do yall really think that the vast VAST majority of them won’t do it again???

None of this shit actually matters. US Soccer wont get any better until it produces better players. Based on the area of the country, soccer only gets the 4th or 5th tier athletes to stick with the sport through college or professionally. Soccer people are proud that youth participation numbers are rising relative to…

Is Allen Payne light skinned or is his hair just curly?

That episode deaded me. I am actually deceased. This is a ghost typing.

Sorry. Odell fully dropping his Trade facade won the night.

I appreciate the all the Kinnaman shirtlessness but his narrations are unnecessary. Definitely worth watching.

I’m still trying to figure out what her shitty contract has to do with my borrowed account?

Now that friendship with Trump is starting to make sense.

I’m with Michelle Obama on this one. Go High. Upping the ante on the SOTU protest would’ve felt great in the moment, but it would’ve lower the bar for the next President. This Trump thing is temporary and wypipo can rationalize any absurdity when they feel slighted.

Maybe, if the culture had more to be proud of, you wouldn’t get so bent out of shape over trivial shit like this.

All the good will from the Taylor Swift decimation is gone. But really, this needs to be Kanye’s L. Yall need to make that happen.

Leave Ross Matthews alone.

That’s nice but he’s still boring. I’m all for seeing a diverse cross section of America. I’d rather here from somebody that will leave me inspired instead of tired.

Kennedy’s race and ethnicity have nothing to do with it. He’s voice is stiff and monotone. I like his politics but his presentation is boring. So no to your question. I would not like to hear from a minority version of Kennedy. A white male version of Maxine Waters would be just fine to me.

And as frustrating as that is, there is a cost to being labeled “progressive.” The requests to speak and preach at conferences aren’t plentiful. Your access to some of the platforms that helped sustain your faith can become restricted. And more than anything, if you are labeled a progressive church girl, your faith…

JK3 needs more seasoning and media training.

The Dynastic Establishment isn’t the problem. It’s that they promote stiff and/or unlikable politicians. Last six national Democratic Losers: Carter (unlikable), Mondale (stiff), Dukakis (stiff), Gore (stiff), Kerry (stiff), Clinton (stiff & unlikable). Kennedy III is a nice enough guy but he doesn’t nearly the talent…

A lot of this stems from the nature and history of the non-Black POC (NBPOC) immigration experience. Largely in America, Black is our race and our ethnicity. We generally see ourselves as a singular ethnic group because of our shared experiences and stolen history. Our voices are louder because we present a more…
