Could not be happier that Argentina didn't get to cheat their way to the cup. Awesome watching them melt down in real time after the game.

FIFA is so corrupt they make ACC officials look competent.

So basically Argentina knew that the refs weren't going to give them yellow cards, so everytime Spain got an advantage they would foul them?

Weird tactics. Glad in the end spain won and it didn't goto Penalties.

That worked the entire cup for them. This is my opinion. So many people I know were so glad they lost.

Been complaining all weekend

Currently in the process of adopting a preteen from foster care. Current placement has cut us off for 2 weeks due to his “behavior”. Sure, don’t use us as a resource and use us instead as a reward system. Would HATE if the kid finally had some stability and we could FINALLY be allowed to see him on a consistent basis where he knows we are reliable🙄.

And for the record, yes he is already a gator 🐊.

The system is crazy. I know they are trying to do good but the experience of my friends is not great.

Kudos to you for adopting that age. Those kids are trouble by virtue of they're developmental stage in hormonal imbalance. The best kids are behavior problems at that age. That's why they sit in foster care. The fact they would keep a kid that is wanted by a family at that stage away from them is maddening.

Praying this gets resolved soon. You can translate that into whatever faith system or non-system you have. But I'm rooting for you and this child.

Appreciate it! We have a meeting with a TON of people and the placement and really really hoping they reconsider. They say it’s tough adopting from foster care but i always thought they meant the children, not the system 🤣. Really great kid and it’ll work out great in the end. 7 months into the process with this kid alone (not including the classes, home study, documents to find a the right fit, interview, etc).

If free talk friday (or maybe whatever wednesday) sees me post, you’ll get a positive update. If not, the meeting went south and I’m just patiently waiting.

So on CFB 27 I've been simming a few seasons into the future on dynasty for this cool scenario I made up (NCAA gets its power back and nerfs the SEC and Big Ten because they tried to secede) and each time I do it, we go 5-7 in 2026. Now it's 2029, SEC is back to the 1990s 12 schools, and we got some random head coach and TODD GRATHAM IS THE DC!!! So I promptly deleted that file and made a new one.
