Being true to the original text would NEVER INCLUDE a female 007. Never.

Poutine
Went to Quebec this summer. Loved it. Had poutine - am no big fan of that now but glad I at least tried it. Dual Canada/US citizenship gives the benefit of a gargantuan geographic region to disappear off the grid into, if so needed or desired.

Detective/spy genre works great. There are tons of book series that are out with multiple stories and proven interesting.
Right! I love Slow Horses and can’t wait for next season. Another great series is on AMC+ called Dark Winds and is based on Hillerman’s Navajo cop settings. Right now has 4 seasons. Season 5 comes out in 2027. 28 books total.

It’s “the beautiful game,” and for most of my adult life I’ve been patiently informed, usually by someone who calls it fútbol, that I simply lack the sophistication to appreciate it.
This is the one really real accurate statement. IMHO, there is so much blatantly elitist “futbol snobbery” amongst the self-styled sophisticates, it turns my stomach. It is my notion that especially European futbollers would self-destruct if Americans ever embrace “their” sport. Hordes of American soccer/futbol fans would be one of their two worst nightmares. The other would be Team USA winning the WC.

Looks to be as gruesome as The Exorcist. Will probably pass.

definitely came out flat in this game.
Post-game on FOX the Women’s soccer person said in her opinion US came out losing before even setting foot on the pitch. She hinted at some unknown behind the scenes something that was a factor in our sucky play. I think she nailed it.
I love Mexico’s passion. If we had played them, Mex would have blown us away.

Plodding. Sloppy. Confused.

Stop thinking out players are anywhere near elite.
Truth. FIFA gave the 3 host teams a little rope, but one by one knocked us out. First Canada…Mexico…USA. The rest of the WC will be real soccer.

Pulisic needs to sit the bench. A non-asset for US.

When I played it was a foul. Watching these games now it’s abundant, and allowed.
Looks like it is random, arbitrary enforcement. FIFA has its own Bama Ref tribe.
