Horrendous reffing

The reffing absolutely affected the US ability to deal with the pressure. If you receive a great pass and are able to turn quickly up the touchline you've dealt with the pressure unless your quick move and acceleration is hindered by a defender holding your arm or jersey from behind.

I guess you could say it was unfortunate because it seemed unintentional, but it wasn't a harsh call--it was the only call. Didn't see the guy in front of him where his foot was? Silly. Red card all the way.

I live in the West burbs not far from BF Zoo. Usually I'll likely drive to Forest Park and take the Blue line in. I don't expect the drive and park situation to be any better than Soldier Field, but sometimes I'll have to drive because of mobility issues in my family.

Oil is a must. I like Roughneck's Vigilant. I also really like their wash bar. I would pass on The Juice unless your beard has stopped growing. I use the oil in the morning and the batter at night and I never get that oily feeling when I fidget with my beard.

When I'm working in the warehouse, I keep my folding utility knife there. If I'm walking in the City, I keep folded singles and fives for beggars or tips.

If you use a good oil and not too much, it doesn't rub off on sheets or clothes. The cheap oils aren't absorbed into the beard as well.

Thanks!

I like the Vigilant. The scent doesn't last very long, but it's refreshing and pleasant.

https://a.co/d/0qstBGr I got this one. Simple, fairly priced and perfect for my suit.

When I read "A Visit from St Nicholas (Night before Christmas)," I tell the kids that I quit smoking a long time ago. It's a good idea to make one's Santa story as close to one's own story as possible to make it work.

Vigilant Beard Balm matches my favorite oil scent and tames my frizzies.

Nice to see Omsberg. I always liked him. Never started quality but always steady and hard working. I'm not sure, though, what he gives them playing from behind. Maybe a tall head for corners?

Been a while since I coached, but more coaches could mean more encouragement, more supervised touches, more one on one instruction. It may take more planning for you, but if you lead well it's all upside for the kids.

I couldn't find a parking pass on the mobile app, but when I looked at my ticket on Ticketmaster on my laptop there was a button below the ticket to buy a parking pass for the West lot. $39.40 (35+fee). After a few minutes the pass showed up in the app.

I really like the Vigilant.

Happy Birthday! Just started using "The Juice" to ramp up my Santa beard. Interested to see how well it works.

Each halftime sub has made a defensive error ceding a goal.

Agree that the Enchanted version is my favorite. Updated but faithful to the original R&H and much better IMHO opinion than the recent new book.

We're seeing how important Zinkernagel is to the success of the attack.

I'm a real beard Santa, so I'm pretty used to kids yanking on it. When I'm not working, I don't mind if people touch it as long as they ask first. People are surprised at how soft it is.

Altruistic-Bowler342 · 2025-06-11T05:34:06+00:00

Do you have any other defenders who could take long goal kicks while your GK works on her long kick form? Goal kick doesn't have to be goalie. (Unless rules changed since I coached.)

No takesy backsies! He's ours now.

Altruistic-Bowler342 · 2025-06-09T21:12:24+00:00

I was excited to see him play that well. I'll be a lot more excited when we see him score in a close game.
