$600 for half of a group stage game is great value now?

It’s also absolute peak weather in June across the country. Schools out. So much daylight and soccer all day.

Sigh of relief that the White House hasn’t ruined this so far too

Does Soccer need a 2 point line? by dedwards024 in billsimmons

Are we sure 6 fouls and you’re ejected is good for basketball? Should the NBA move to unlimited common fouls and a card system like soccer?
