Seems like this is coming true!

The very fact that the term “soccer mom” became such a thing points to an inherent disadvantage we have vs many other countries. Kids don't play unless they can get a ride in a minivan! Growing up in texas, I wasn’t able to start playing spontaneously with friends until we got our driver’s license

Thank you for looking into that and enlightening me!

now it’s definitely using an overview pulling from two sources and doing a much better job, so I’ll give ‘em that

Daaaaamn okay that makes sense then.

I thought so too but I immediately searched for any related word on Wikipedia and didn’t find anything. Could’ve been fixed before I checked though And yeah this box def used to always pull straight from Wiki, and still does in many cases, but it often has its own generated description instead

I don’t know whether I should be ashamed that so many people on the internet are posting shit like this that the AI picked it up OR that the AI is so bad that it latched onto one single tweet or something either way, i miss when it was always just a wikipedia blurb

here’s a screen recording I took in case someone thinks this is a doctored photo wtf?

Damn that's a brutal way to put it

Thank you! That's what I figured but I think some understood it as an insult to Stuver so I had to get clarification.

@mattdoyle.bsky.social please! i’m genuinely curious if my interpretation of that phrase is correct or if i’m misunderstanding you!

Mr. Doyle can you briefly clarify what exactly you mean by “ate shit”? Asking for a friend

hey I'm just defending the roster build, and only half-heartedly at that! definitely not happy about the Nico hire lmao

last night was borderline our C team

I don't love the roster, but between the injuries (one DP out for last 9mo, Owen hasn't played yet this season, etc) and Nico's crazy lineups (Bukari on left for half a season, JoRo playing RW to start this season, etc), it's unfair to point to any recent games as proof of a failed roster build imo

Right! That guidance sounds good in theory, but over time it means refs are no longer making calls they believe in. Rather, refs are more and more leaving it up to VAR to decide, which means we're expecting VAR to "make the call" rather than only watch for clear and obvious errors.

See VAR recommending a pen on Duah in Sunday's game. That would be a soft penalty if called imo, and the ref decided it wasn't enough to call it on the field. Looking at the footage, there is no "clear and obvious error", yet VAR recommended a review simply because THEY thought it was a penalty.

True! It feels like we are losing sight of the "clear and obvious error" spirit of VAR. Now it's more like VAR is simply making their own calls and recommending those to the center ref, which feels much more inconsistent.

I think Wiebe is saying that it's not offside because the ball that went into the net didn't come off an actual shot, rather it came off a deflected RSL clearance. I'm unaware of the rule that says offside is only penalized if the shot is an actual shot, but I believe it. bsky.app/profile/andr...

I do think y’all got lucky with that no handball call! Perhaps a wash considering you didn’t get the penalty call on Duah early on either Wildly unpredictable game for VAR all around lol
