Good framing.

The more details one hears about this case, the more infuriating it becomes. It's unconscionable what was done to this man. People should lose careers over this kind of malpractice.

U.S. Soccer offers a grand total of a one-sentence statement: "U.S. Soccer stands with Concacaf and its members." If they're really afraid of the Trump administration revoking their 501(c)(3) status... or offending one of the big donors' friends... there are ways to let us know.

From @theathletic.com: Russia will not be permitted to field teams at several major tournaments next year, the International Ice Hockey Federation Disciplinary Board announced Thursday.

Cara Gardner Morey is moving back behind the bench for the #Goldeneyes and vacating the GM position. Was the head coach at Princeton for 8 years, and must believe a lot in the roster she's constructed that she'd give up the executive role to return to coaching this quickly.

So I asked Canada Soccer what they think of Gianni Infantino's idea and they basically said "uh we just got it so we need to think a little first" theprovince.com/sports/socce...

As UEFA and FIFA fight over World Cup's future, Canada and rest of the world stand to the sideCanada Soccer said they need more time to review what Gianni Infantino wants to do to FIFA.theprovince.com

New UEFA statement. "UEFA knows there is significant and growing opposition to FIFA’s scheme. FIFA cannot continue to use our sport to enrich themselves and their friends. We can grow the game correctly. It’s time to prioritise associations, clubs, leagues, players and fans"

Uefa meeting is 2pm UK time tomorrow - boycotts will be discussed It’s already been raised how the same threat was used to kill Fifa’s plan to have a Russian team in the World Cup after Ukraine Also idea of EU/EC removing Fifa’s antitrust law exemptions www.independent.co.uk/sport/footba...

can also report what @risingaction.bsky.social wrote in the Province today. Seems like a prospect signing is close. The actual Berhalter replacement is being worked on. It won’t be a Goretzka calibre player though. I have been told the Goretzka camp is looking to maintain his Bayern salary.

Of note, the Columbus Crew received 10% of the fee the Whitecaps earned from Middlesbrough per source. The Whitecaps will receive 10% should Middlesbrough sell Berhalter in the future.

Believe Bill Guerin will be meeting with Quinn Hughes and his camp in Michigan today/this week. As we've long reported, Wild want to go 5-8 years (7-year max term after Sept. 16 in new CBA). 3-year extension still makes most sense for Quinn so he can align with Jack's deal in NJ

Calling this what it is: a SLAPP lawsuit against PressProgress for their factual reporting about an Alberta UCP candidate's nazi rhetoric has now killed one of the only full-time labour journalism positions in Canadian media.

Some quick thoughts: - It's a bit surprising that snap shots pull more similarly to slap shots than wrist shots, though in most other respects they profile more like wrist shots. I'm still not sure whether I think they should be their own category of shot in an xG model or lumped in with wrist shots

Stay the hell away from Elon Musk and especially his cars, rockets and software….

Here's the current smoke situation. Starting to blow out to the east.

One caveat — the ways Unite Here has been lobbying are interesting, and Dan Fumano did a good job at that broader story yesterday But I really do encourage people to think about what materially changed from those calls, versus how much emotion is being spent on it vancouversun.com/opinion/colu...

AI slop, Californians, and bogus 'translators': Vancouver council went off the rails this weekA local labour leader confirmed her union asked allies outside Canada to phone into council about a contentious urban planning decision.vancouversun.com

Who are the liars? They complain about the auto tariffs which are identical to the American auto tariffs Trump put on Canada. The high dairy tariffs kick in at a threshold that has never been reached. They are desperate folks. Stay strong and keep the boycotts going.

I asked. Vancouver Whitecaps have and I quote “zero” interest in signing Enner Valencia. In general, club will only make major signings if there is a big injury or a player leaving. Seb Berhalter a candidate for departure. Clubs in England, Germany and Italy interested in the #USMNT player.

The Miami Heat YouTube channel might have accidentally leaked LeBron signing there… 😳 The video was immediately unlisted and privated. (via HeatvsHaters) #NBA
