Not many players wear a cup besides catchers

I thought you had to be a citizen or have permanent residency status to get a mortgage typically?

Sounds like the banks had some terrible underwriting practices in giving loans to people with only temporary legal status, and now its going to bite them in the arse.

Hopefully someone in the athletic department sees this thread and can arrange for Joe to get birthday cards or shoutouts from a few coaches or players

more than that since it’s a game that actually counts

It "counts" about as much as a week 18 NFL game where one team is 15-1 and has already locked up the #1 seed for playoffs and the opponent is 1-15 and is already guaranteed to have the #1 pick in the draft. Sure, it goes down as an official game, but win, lose, or draw doesn't change anything for either team.

USA was already locked into the next round to play Bosnia. Beating Turkey wouldn't have changed that. Turkey was already eliminated. Beating the US wouldn't have changed that either.

It’s about on par with the SEC title
Game in the 12 team era.

Not even close since the SEC title game in the 12 team playoff era would still effect the playoff bracket and seeding. And likely has a 1st round bye on the line.

USA vs Turkey had zero impact on the bracket. It was a glorified exhibition, which is why the US rested most of their starters. There were 8 or 9 different players who started vs Turkey compared to the starting lineup in the previous game.

About 10 posts before someone who has actually been to NYC and thinks for themselves makes a post…Fox News algorhythm must be on high.

You don’t need to have visited NYC to know that rent freezes are bad ideas. The landlord gets absolutely fricked because I guarantee that their expenses for the unit don’t get frozen. Hasn’t Mamdami been floating property tax increases? Insurance tends to go up every year. Costs for maintenance and repairs doesn’t get cheaper. Most landlords have mortgages. Its not like most landlords are cash flowing these massive amounts of money every month. You mostly just have to hope the monthly rent covers the mortgage, taxes, insurance, maintenance, and a little bit of profit to make the risk and headaches of being a landlord somewhat worthwhile.

Same principal applies whether its NYC, NOLA, or anywhere else

WTF is up with PLTR the last 2 weeks?

Josh Hamilton when he hit like 28 homers in one round of the HR Derby….back when they still had the original rules of 10 outs in the round

NIL + the transfer rules have effectively made pro jobs a better quality of life. The HC doesn't constantly have to fundraise and recruit his current roster along with new players, given them very little offseason

Hell, now you have to compete against other teams within your own school's athletic department to fight over who gets what percent of the revenue share money for your roster.
