Not just an orthopedic cost. Early specialization is a paradox; the better you get at something very early, the less likely you’ll be great at it later on. Kids who specialize early will obviously get better faster than their non-specializing peers. This is intoxicating for

Cody Gakpo can't turn left. He has been cutting to his right for so long that he's forgotten how.

Shorten the County season!

All schools in Brazil went phone-free last February. Early research shows test scores rising, conflicts and discipline problems falling. May Brazil be an inspiration to other countries. We can reclaim childhood and education in the real world. jornalrepercussao.com.br/politica/lei-d…

i know it has been made fun of constantly (and, please, keep doing so) ... but it cannot be overstated how INSANE it is that FIFA have anointed themselves as the arbiters of PEACE to give out this made up peace award to trump

Just when you think FIFA couldn't get more corrupt.... Infantino invents the, ironic, "Peace" award

Just watched Mo Salah get a foul after getting pulled from behind whilst shielding the ball. Couldn't believe my eyes.

There’s no such thing as an elite 9 year old athlete. Nothing really matters until after puberty. Let’s stop the madness.

McAllister fell, then tripped the Marseille defender with his hand, 90 yards from his own goal. A foul and they all move on. Had that been a Gaelic match, there'd have been a clamour for a life-sentence, without parole, for cynical play.

More like Kerkez. Plays so much better with Wirtz than Gakpo.

Wonder is David Brent or Mike Basset doing anything at the minute. Wee job swap with Arne Slot?

Take me back to these days...

Ben O’Connor’s interviews are going to be absolutely box-office this year

Billionaires do not create jobs. Stop saying it. Without billionaires, we would still build things, design things, teach things, sell things, buy things. Billionaires capitalise profits. That's it.

You think that's bad, try being involved with some of the sports teams 🫣 Resilience and personal responsibility are dying. (Disclaimer: I also hate homework)
