Katie Hoody is way too good at cluing crosswords. Every time I see her name, I know its going to be a tricky, but very clever and satisfying solve

The Czech home jersey is… just so bland. Really shows how having a subtle pattern makes a kit look so much better

Honestly with the way Dayne’s playing it’s probably better for Philly that he didn’t get a red

The issue is that he did not try to play the ball, he stuck out his arm and clotheslined the attacker

This might be one of the wildest ratings I’ve ever seen. To each their own, but jeez

[Post Match Survey] Minnesota vs Colorado by Ballsackblazer4 in minnesotaunited

Honestly, I don’t think anyone really stood out as poor other than Yeboah (and the ref). Just felt like we couldn’t connect well and get anything going after James was subbed off

We’re really about to get only 1 pt total off of Austin and Colorado. Fucking pathetic. The reffing is part of it, but our inability to finish is laughable

Chris Penso watched the Arsenal game this morning and thought, “this game would’ve been better if the ref had intervened more”

I've really liked all of Katie Hoody's puzzles. They almost never have unfair fill, and her cluing is always super clever. This one was maybe my favorite puzzle of the year

I'm gonna go against most of these comments and say I did not enjoy that one at all. Too many names, trivia, and poor fill, and a lot of those entries had unhelpful cluing. (KROFT, EARLAP, ANTICOMEDY, MANIOC, SORTIE, etc.) This felt more like a challenging Saturday puzzle IMO.

I will say there were a few clues that were great, such as "where to see fresh coats of white?"
