no, Horschel.

Just another beautiful summer day Watching just a bit of this makes me so glad my Campbell ancestors up and left.

He's definitely not coming. "Not even 50 pages on their forum ?! Really ?!! Ketelarere got more than that. Sensi got 3 times that and he’s in a wheelchair. Even Joel freakin’ Piroe got more than that. Screw that tinpot bunch !"

An Athletic article today argued that Everton may be unsaleable. The club’s debts exceed its value, and interest is accumulating at over ₤1 million per week. Yet the business being worth less than zero is the good news. Moshiri’s dalliance with 777 has left even stickier wickets. The £200M the club owes 777 was itself lent by parties who have competing claims. 777 secured the loans against assets it did not own, sometimes multiple times. Thus they are in criminal court. Any buyer of EFC faces a legal nightmare to determine who actually holds their IOUs. And who knows how many lawsuits if they pay back the “wrong” party. Given the likelihood of fraud charges against 777 being made to stick, “any self-respecting corporate lawyer would have to warn a client looking at Everton that there may be a potential Proceeds of Crime Act (POCA) issue down the line.” Even if your intention was to sacrifice lots of money in the short run in the hopes of saving the club: would you walk into that?

Next move is to plead poverty and ask them to cover part of his wages.

3 years left on a 25 million euros/year contract, people.

Each July we drive to Pennsylvania for an excellent beer festival at the Voodoo Brewery production compound. You can choose between hundreds of top notch, mostly hard to find beers at a Friday night bottle share and a Saturday walkaround. Except this year nobody went. Attendance about 20% of capacity after 50% last year. The folks there were all in their 30s through 60s. I talked to a couple of brewers who said Gen Z are choosing weed and edibles. Bang for their buck I suppose. Demand is dropping for both craft beer and fine wine. The young’uns in this country are congratulating themselves for swerving unhealthy beverage alcohol, while they go through life with pink eyeballs.

I was in a BBQ joint in Chicago with a few dozen taps (my kind of establishment) and got into beer-geek talk with one of the bartenders. He insisted on pouring me a taster of this. I went right back for a pint. Really good, underrated beer.

One telling way to look at Southgate at this point - When he finally washes out of the England setup, at what level could he be hired? Even at the Championship or League 1 level, there would be open rebellion from any club’s fanbase the moment the first rumor hit Twitter. And his brief club management record wouldn’t justify anything higher.

Compelling final. Sometimes (not often enough) Latin American football rises above its shithousery.

aaaaand ... it's scoreless ... and it'll be football til after midnight, folks. I tuned in for Golazo and got Go-Long-Zo.

Please, please, PLEASE let this be the first and ONLY halftime show in the history of international football. (or ANY football)

Southgate doesn’t make subs at 5’.

He's put down roots and is ready to hang up his shingle

Finally some bottle jobs on here not related to LCFC or Spurs

Oh, right, I meant Shankly Ferguson never mind. yet again, Southgate thrives against weak competition

The revisionism begins By kick off of the final, Southgate will be the greatest English coach since Busby.

That godawful coach of yours has actually set you up to take some advantage of your superior talent. If he pulls Kane, you'll romp the second half as the Dutch tire. Enjoy, I'm off to dinner with a Scottish born, London raised, LA resident musician friend in town. Who doesn't give a damn about any of this!

The team, or the fans?

Bummer. Who taught Bombito how to defend? Like watching Amartey.

I’m Abdul the winger man The Premier League is my plan I’m Leicester on paper but the deal is just vapor the fax machine never ran

Okoli's percentiles are compared to CBs in the top five leagues, Greaves' to the "next 14" leagues. Apples and oranges to that extent.

Certainly looks like he can defend.
