Uruguay 2 Portugal 1 FT


Urban Dictionary:

Thot
A woman who pretends to be the type of valuable female commodity who rightfully earns male commitment—until the man discovers that she’s just a cheap imitation of a “good girl” who is good only for mindless sex, not relationships or respect.

If women are products, then thots are cheap goods. More than that, they’re knockoffs: low-quality merchandise that attempts to masquerade as luxury items.

Loved Sampaoli's work with Universidad de Chile, the Chilean national team and Sevilla. What the hell happened once he took over Argentina?
9:20 AM - 30 Jun 2018

Maybe a bigger stage? If that can be imagined after the Universidad de Chile, the Chilean national team, and Sevilla.
Uruguay and Portugal! The Cannibal vs the Christian!

1-0 Cannibals. Edinson Cavani in the 7'.

Never take it for granted you watched Messi play for Argentina. Reminder of Dostoevsky quote "Pain and suffering are inevitable for persons of broad awareness and depth of heart. The truly great are... always bound to feel a great sense of sadness during their time upon earth"

Only 19 years old Kylian Mbappe is already playing for a top club, Paris, and now got a brace in four minutes at the World Cup. I'd say his future is bright.

4-2!

Mbappe again! In the 68'.

Mbappe in the 64'. Back and forth, this reads like a terrific match.

Wayne Rooney to D.C. United

MLS continues to do shit like this. The guy has been washed up for years. He's 32 years old, will be 33 in October. And he's an old 32. He is a square-built man who has problems with his weight on accounta he's fond of brewskis.

2006 for England. The round mound of rebound.

2009 with England.
I wear my shirts out like that and it's not to show off my six-pack abs. It's to cover up the six pack I drank before putting on the shirt.

He's in fighting trim there! 2015 with the Chevies. But only scored 12 goals.

And looks wiry there, in 2016. But look how much older he looks than the year before. Eight goals in 2016. Washed up. He's washed up.

 Rooney's goal totals the past six years:

-12
-17
-12
-8
-5
-10

If you can insult the intelligence of Americans--And I do it every chance I get.--this is an insult to the intelligence of American soccer fans. 
When I googled "Miami Heat" I got a result called "Lebron Heat Insane." Highlights. Clicked on it. It was insane. I googled "LeBron James Heat highlights gif" I  got these. It was insane.





Against the Lakers. On a Christmas Day, as I recall. LeBron and D-Wade put on a frigging show that Christmas Day.
Looks like the identical play. But it's not.
That's Harlem Globetrotters stuff.

Look at this pass from Wade Ho-ho-ho.

Look at this pass from James.
The "no look" (coined by Chick Hearn) pioneered by Magic Johnson. 



Look at this pass from James.
On the no-look the receiver was wide open. On this one, this is a bang-bang pass off a pick-and-roll. The court sense that this man has is just extraordinary. He is always thinking on the court. Most intelligent basketball player ever.

LeBron James Opts for Free Agency Again

The decision was widely expected. He declined to exercise the player's option on the second year of his contract at $36 million. He can still stay in Lake Mistake by signing a new contract or sign with a new team. It is expected, but less widely so, that he will sign with the Los Angeles "Lakers." L.A. has no lakes though. If he is really interested in being a laker he needs to stay in Cleveland or go to Minnesota or some other shit hole place.

19 min: After a bright start, this match is in danger of slipping into Friendly Mode. Ah hold on! Scrub that! Rose picks up the pace on the left and is unceremoniously hacked down by Tielemans, who is booked and doesn’t bother complaining about it, which shows self-awareness if nothing else. A free kick, and a chance for England to load the Belgian box.

As the Raptors went back on the floor, Toronto’s Patrick Patterson lined up in the wrong spot. He didn’t realize it, but LeBron did. James told Patterson where he was supposed to be, then told him the play the Raptors would run.Guy is amazing

Stop staring at your dick and get off the header. What, are you Hemingway?
Now this, also from 38 North, is closer to my own view as if you care, NOT as optimistic as I am, but closer:

An ebullient President Trump flew home Tuesday with what he called a “very, very comprehensive” agreement with North Korea, even as lawmakers, analysts and allies congratulated the effort but questioned the substance of what had been achieved.

The brief document signed by Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un provided virtually no detail beyond a stated commitment to “denuclearize” the Korean Peninsula, a promise that Pyongyang has made and ignored many times in the past.

Karen DeYoung and David Nakamura, “Lack of Detail Clouds Results from the Summit,” Washington Post, June 13, 2018.

President Donald Trump sold his nuclear agreement with North Korea on Tuesday as different from—and better than—any that’s gone before. Measured against previous deals, though, the two-page document had similar language and was distinct mainly for being vague.

The statement Trump signed with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un committed them both to the “complete denuclearization” of the Korean Peninsula, as well as to a new relationship, a peace regime and security guarantees, none of which were defined. The omission of the words “verifiable” and “irreversible” from the phrasing on denuclearization suggested North Korean resistance to Trump’s requests.

Mark Champion, Andy Sharp, and David Tweed, “Trump’s North Korea Deal Is Different, and Not in a Good Way,” Bloomberg News, June 13, 2018.

President Trump’s praise for Kim Jong Un’s authoritarian rule in North Korea—and his apparent envy that people there “sit up at attention” when the 35-year-old dictator speaks—marked an escalation of the American president’s open embrace of totalitarian leaders around the world.

Reflecting on his impressions of Kim following their Singapore summit, Trump told Fox News: “He’s the head of a country, and I mean he’s the strong head. Don’t let anyone think anything different. He speaks, and his people sit up at attention. I want my people to do the same.” It was unclear whether Trump was referring to Americans generally or only to his staff.

Philip Rucker, “With Praise of Kim, Trump Widens Totalitarian Embrace,” Washington Post, June 16, 2018.

Different reporters, different news organizations, similar storyline.

For all the talk of journalistic competition and investigative journalism, once a story is framed, the news media find it difficult to break that frame. And the frame for nuclear diplomacy with North Korea—to put it simply—is that a naïve, uninformed and self-aggrandizing President Trump, too eager to declare success, was taken to the cleaners by a clever, but deceitful North Korea, kowtowed to a dictator, and even had the effrontery to exchange salutes with the KPA defense minister.

These ledes all miss something obvious and essential: the President of the United States spoke respectfully with the leader of an enemy state and signed a joint statement with him, then announced he was suspending joint military exercises with South Korea. To Pyongyang, which had long conditioned denuclearization on the end of what it called US “hostile policy,” these were disarming gestures.

The framing of Trump’s nuclear diplomacy led reporters to stick to “he said, she said” journalism, quoting first the president, then his critics, instead of trying to dog down the missing details.

At least one lede broke the frame and grasped the essential point of the summit:

President Donald Trump launched a high-stakes diplomatic effort to rid North Korea of its nuclear weapons, betting that a friendlier approach with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un—including a surprise promise to halt military exercises with South Korea—would work better than intimidation.

With the task ahead to make the agreement concrete, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is scheduled to travel to Seoul on Wednesday for talks with South Korean and Japanese officials, followed by a trip to China. The decision to cancel the exercises, the refining of the timetables for denuclearization and possible future sanction relief are expected to be on the agenda.

Michael R. Gordon, Jonathan Cheng and Michael C. Bender, “Tricky Path ahead after North Korea Summit,” Wall Street Journal, June 13, 2018.

But most stories characterized the summit as a “victory” for North Korea—as if the score after the first inning is what mattered. They might not have even gotten the score right since most stories neglected to point out that Kim Jong Un at halted nuclear and missile tests before he had an ICBM (that requires a reentry vehicle and proven guidance) or a proved two-stage thermonuclear weapon.

The unstated assumption seemed to be that negotiations are boring. It is more entertaining to warn of the coming war, or when that possibility has receded, to cover the conflict between Trump and his detractors. The consequence was that important details got lost in the noise.

For instance, Secretary of State Pompeo after meeting with his key North Korean interlocutor Kim Yong Chol, was asked why the talks ended so soon. Without hyperbole in a “just the facts ma’am” tone of voice, he replied “We didn’t end the talks early. We had a set series of items that we wanted to make sure we covered, topics which we made sure that we were clear on in terms of what our expectations were and their expectations in return of us. We achieved that.”

In a June 7 interview with NHK, Pompeo let a bigger cat out of the bag, hinting at a possible alliance long sought by North Korea: “We want to achieve a fundamentally different strategic relationship between our two countries.” Reporters showed scant interest.

At a June 13 briefing in Seoul, Pompeo got testy when reporters asked why the joint declaration did not use the words “verifiable”: “Let me assure you that the ‘complete’ encompasses verifiable in the minds of everyone concerned. One can’t completely denuclearize without validating, authenticating—you pick the word.” Most stories dwelt on that contretemps without noting the news that there was more agreed than what was contained in the joint statementor announced separately: “There was a great deal of work done over days and days and days in Panmunjom that led to the discussions that took place there in Singapore for whatever it was, 70 hours or 60 hours, whatever the two sets of teams were on the ground. So, there’s—not all of that work appeared in the final document, but lots of other places where there were understandings reached.” In short, stay tuned.

As long as reporters focus on President Trump’s hyperbole and his critics’ doubts, they will assure that the news will generate more heat than light and leave observers in the dark.

"North Korea Is Rapidly Upgrading Nuclear Site Despite Summit Vow"-WSJ

That is not exactly what 38 North, on whom Wally based their headline, said. This is exactly what 38 North said:

"Commercial satellite imagery from June 21 indicates that improvements to the infrastructure at North Korea’s Yongbyon Nuclear Scientific Research Center are continuing at a rapid pace.
...
"Continued work at the Yongbyon facility should not be seen as having any relationship to North Korea’s pledge to denuclearize. The North’s nuclear cadre can be expected to proceed with business as usual until specific orders are issued from Pyongyang."
https://www.38north.org/2018/06/yongbyon062618/

I recognize that that last sentence begs the question.

Tomorrow at 2 p.m. Normal People Time England plays Belgium about which worthy Business Insider says,

England and Belgium will play in a World Cup match nobody wants to win thanks to the knockout bracket's 'half of death'


Well, I'll tell ya somethin' BizInz: The Waffles will want to win the match and the Waffles will win the match.
In today's late matches Switzerland and Costa Rica tied 2-2 and Brazil beat Serbia 2-0. This image from Switzerland-Costa Rica does not flatter.

Four days ago I wrote a one-sentence post, "Did Trump get scammed?" Today, this headline in the Wall Street Journal:

North Korea Is Rapidly Upgrading Nuclear Site Despite Summit Vow

Wait...What?

I can only wonder at what was going through the South Korean players’ minds in that moment, just seconds after they had knocked off Germany in a stunning 2-0 upset only to discover that it all meant nothing—that they’d be going home anyway because Mexico had failed to...beat Sweden...Over the course of about 15 minutes the South Koreans went from experiencing the creeping dread of an increasingly likely 0-0 draw or 0-1 loss, to the blinding, exhilarating thrill of a 2-0 win, all followed in swift succession by the cruel comedown of learning it changed exactly nothing and helped them not at all.-Deadspin

Blows.

Lionel Messi isn't to blame for Argentina's World Cup problems, Jorge Sampaoli and the federation are
(CBS)

You got that right, Eye! What else you got?

There is no doubt that Argentina, from the streets of Buenos Aires to all 23 provinces, has as much talent as any country in the world when it comes to soccer. 
...
But why is this team disastrously spiraling downward at the World Cup in Russia? It's rather simple. The continuity and the leadership aren't there. It feels like a sinking ship and nothing more. 

Sinking ship! Oh! There goes the General Belgrano!





Since the 2010 World Cup there have been five, and three during the 2018 World Cup qualifying cycle.

And sadly, the federation has picked the wrong man to lead this team. 

Argentina manager Jorge Sampaoli insists on using players that are typically on the bench with their respective clubs, and it's baffling. Willy Caballero: Chelsea backup. Marcos Rojo: Manchester United backup. Two players that aren't good enough to start for any big team or club, yet they have been earning minutes in the opening games in the starting lineup. Caballero gave Croatia the first goal, he nearly gave up another howler, and he wasn't sharp in the first match. Rojo was awful in the opening game...[Note: this was written before Rojo scored the match winner today. But this guy's points are still valid. It is baffling why Kun Aguero was not subbed in until the 51' or something like that?]
...
...instead, he opted for a 32-year-old Enzo Perez who has struggled at River Plate. He opted for a 34-year-old Javier Mascherano that plays in China and has no business being on this team. An Angel Di Maria that hasn't been good in a couple years. An Ever Banega that has never produced consistently with the national team. And Lucas Biglia, who isn't 100 percent healthy. 
...
Of the 23 players Sampaoli called up initially (before the injury to Manuel Lanzini), 11 had 10 caps or less with the national team. Some weren't even hardly used by him in qualifying leading up to the tournament. [Weren't even hardly? Who the hell wrote this?..."Roger" "Gonzalez." CBS, you have editors, no? Are they versed in English prose, or no? No, right?]

It feels like he came into the job without ideas, just with a truckload of duct tape and a prayer. 
...
The changes in coaching, the player selection of a coach that clearly doesn't know what he has at his disposal, is ruining what could be Messi's last chance at winning the World Cup. [Not to mention nearly causing Messi to have a nervous breakdown.]

I'm waiting. 

And so is Argentina. But not just for a trophy, but for a manager worthy of leading the talent this team has, for a federation to make the right selection to rebuild this train wreck.

The man is clueless. Jorge Sampaoli is clueless.
Last month Judge T.S. Ellis III of the Eastern District of Virginia blistered Mueller prosecutors on a motion to dismiss filed by Paul Manafort's lawyers. Ellis' comments were shocking, grounds for recusal. Yet today, in a 32-page opinion he ruled for Mueller's team and denied the motion to dismiss.

I had never read comments by a judge, much less a federal judge, as biased as were Ellis' but I have occasionally seen things like it on a smaller scale. Sometimes a judge, for reasons known only to the judge and his or her psychiatrist if any, will deliver remarks or direct questions that are a "punch kiss" and then rule in your favor. More common actually is, I guess I'll call it the "kiss punch," a judge who compliments your forensic acumen and mastery of the law and then rules against you. I can understand that a little more: a judge is supposed to be respectful, most want to be known as possessing a good "judicial temperment" but either way it throws mixed signals to the lawyer. Damning by faint praise is...Just rule, wouldja? Damning by faint praise is not comforting. Ruling for you after excorciating everything but your birth at oral argument does not erase the doubt: "Can I get a fair trial from this judge?" As I said, I don't know what it is, but sometimes they do it. Never like this though. Would not have mistaken that punch for a kiss in a million years. 
Why so many PK's in this World Cup? The record was broken in like the second day. Two more today. And I haven't heard any commentary complaining about it. In basketball too many fouls and everybody goes nuts. I guess the VAR technology. It really levels the field for the weaker side. Penalty kicks are almost never missed...unless you're Messi or Ronaldo lol.

Oh my God, Hemingway. Could you be more effeminate?

Hi, I'm Earnest but don't call me that or I'll KILL YOU. I'm just a nice little boy-girl a hermaphrodite with both a dick and a pussy.

It makes me very insecure 'cause I think people will point and laugh and say look he has a dick AND a pussy so I cover that whole icky area up with a hand fig leaf.

Okay, the worst, THE. WORST.







Eh. Hemingway, you mess with my fucking head. You were SOOO fucked up.  He spent his entire adulthood proving his manliness to the world...when he knew better.


I wish I didn't have a pussy. I wish I only had a dick like Gary. I like lonnnggg guns and sometimes no all the time ALL THE FUCKING TIME I hold long guns or fishing rods over my girl dick because I don't like it like I don't like "Earnest."
Really, Hemingway, did you have ANY fucking self awareness?

His SON.





Enough. I've done all this on Hemingway before and it completely weirds me the fuck out. I couldn't read anymore Hemingway after I first posted this "study." The way we have read Hemingway? It's wrong. It's all wrong. You have to read Hemingway now knowing this.

Good look, gentleman. Is that choreographed? You are athletes, no? Just got drafted or something? Have to pose on stage in suits for the first time? Not used to doing that? Makes you feel a little insecure? Got it. GET YOUR FUCKING HANDS OFF YOUR DICKS.
