VAR is a blight on the game. Some of the offside decisions are so marginal they are ridiculous.

A statement from the Osbourne family reads: β€œIt is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning. He was with his family and surrounded by love.

2 - #Matildas' 0-1 loss vs Panama today is the 2nd time in 2025 they've lost to a team they've never faced previously in 'A' internationals (1-2 v Colombia, 27 Feb); only in 1997 (Italy, Belgium, Finland) they've logged more defeats vs 1st-time opposition. Unfamiliar.

Not a single international cargo ship at the Port of Seattle. The port is dead. The last ship from China will dock at a West coast port on the 29th, and the last Chinese ship will dock on the East coast around May 10th. After that, there will be no more shipments arriving from China. We’re screwed.
