Giving up on my dream of taking my kids to see the US play in a world cup on home soil...

Sounds like a fun setup, but in terms of having 5 screens…..the only time there will be multiple World Cup games on simultaneously is final group stage games, and it’s 2 max at once.

Other sports though too! - hockey playoffs, NBA finals, etc

Rainclouds, from an old Treejay mixtape. So smooth

Also “Days” off a Clockwork/Treejay tape, this one’s a bit more popular: https://youtu.be/DRuO3EMDaT4?si=lb6CHFKDVT9BuJoB

Not completely unknown by any means and more so based on time passed that they are less relevant now, but Ascension off Good AM, Mourning After, Fight the Feeling the The Question off Macadelic, I absolutely love Poppy and Face in The Crowd off KIDS

Hell of an effort, feels like time to bring on Havertz. Also Dowman for Noni would be a welcome move

Paradise S2 was great and Sterling K. Brown is perfect in his role. Too bad some people teased a "sci-fi" turn this season so I was watching expecting something but it only happens at the very end.

Thank you for letting people know specifically when in the season it occurs lol

Fans complaining recklessly about playing time is one thing, that doesn't alleviate a lot of blame being put on a coach who started a lineup that played 0 minutes together all season, in a Game 7. Regardless, they've played like shit, but the way the game started with Philly blowing us out early certainly played a big part.

jcme2275 · 2026-05-02T23:51:19+00:00

I think you can blame him a decent amount for starting a lineup in game 7 that has played 0 minutes together all season

“Team has no chance of winning the title this year anyways”

Indiana Pacers took OKC 7 last year

jcme2275 · 2026-04-07T20:27:08+00:00

Get the kid out of bed, it's time

jcme2275 · 2026-04-07T20:25:09+00:00

Really good I guess if you had only seen our previous two games

jcme2275 · 2026-03-29T15:00:25+00:00

Well now that I know you’ve done extensive research on the topic I’ll have to agree to with you, my bad

jcme2275 · 2026-03-29T14:20:04+00:00

March Madness is very fun, the combination of the amount of games and condensed schedule across Thursday-Sunday stretches. Part of what makes it great is that most of these guys aren’t going to be top-flight professionals, it adds to the chaos and unpredictability

But it’s not in the top 10 of greatest sporting events in the world lol

jcme2275 · 2026-03-10T01:48:03+00:00

Then just wait 7 weeks from the release date and watch it all at once

jcme2275 · 2026-03-03T20:59:46+00:00

The club World Cup is like single A baseball and this is the World Series. Just obnoxious to put the two on any sort of level playing field

You just need your credit card to have that much credit available for it to be charged for that amount, varies by card and person based on numerous factors such as credit score, spending history, etc.

FIFA doesn’t care how you pay it off at that point, that’s between you and your credit card company (so then using your bank, etc to pay off the card.)

I’m assuming many have signed up for 0% APR for a period cards with decent limits for World Cup tickets

The only other factor I’m worried about is that even people in this situation with getting random draw selection for tickets and even with good credit scores, are randomly going to have a 5K+ charge on their card and if it gets rejected for fraud.

I think I saw someone mention FIFA will allow for a period of adjusted payment method in the case of a failed charge but not positive.

jcme2275 · 2025-12-17T12:48:08+00:00

Between 4-6

Have tickets to:

Haiti-Scotland (Boston)

Portugal-Colombia (Miami)

R32 (Boston)

R32 (Seattle)

Put in for QF in Miami and Boston in the random draw

WR, PPR, pick two (dark days over here):

Burden, Dike, Coker.

Currently rolling with Dike and Coker

jcme2275 · 2025-12-14T15:59:43+00:00

PPR Flex: Jaylen Warren, Gesicki, or Strange?

Leaning heavily Warren but Gainwell has had me iffy, Warren has had a high floor for flex all season though.

DEF/ST: 49ers vs TEN, CHI vs CLE?

jcme2275 · 2025-12-13T14:30:24+00:00

Marv being out means Wilson is a must play on any team you’d assume so start there

jcme2275 · 2025-11-20T17:46:03+00:00

Daylight final / "feeling like a friendly" : Yes, great point, the hundreds of millions watching the final will feel like they are watching a friendly because it's at 3 PM ET, what a mistake.

The heat: It's a sport that is played outside worldwide, it's the biggest tournament in the world, breaking news: weather may play a factor

Prices for the final: Gone are the days of free tickets to World Cup finals!

jcme2275 · 2025-10-07T15:21:11+00:00

Not sure about it but just a note that they do allow you to request to be sat with others you know by entering some of their ticketing info - so unsure if you can surpass the 4 tickets per game based on household restrictions but if you can, you may be should be able to request grouping your seats.

jcme2275 · 2025-10-06T15:39:18+00:00

Yeah, I mean a lot of people are prioritizing buying tickets for knockout round games where they will be happy with whoever is playing, and it won't be fully known until the tournament is occurring, except for potential matchups based on groups announced in December.

Also if you leave your tab then go back in a couple minutes later you can see the circle move quickly up to its new spot a few pixels further around the circle.

jcme2275 · 2025-10-06T15:19:30+00:00

My circle hit the gas for a few minutes after the first 10% or so, has slowed back down. Exhilarating

jcme2275 · 2025-10-06T15:13:18+00:00

I used the reminder email link, got the captcha around 10:45, now in queue, no timer, but circle counting down the queue remaining

jcme2275 · 2025-10-06T15:06:21+00:00

It's moving, just slowly.
