  1. Also a testament to Atlanta's willingness to spend money. They spent $16MM to sign him from Velez Sarfield, and they've made 4 of the 6 most expensive transfer purchases in MLS history. But it also speaks to MLS tweaking the Designated Player rule so that younger players would count for less against the salary cap than veteran DPs. It incentivizes looking for young players that you can develop further and sell on for a profit (which MLS has said they want to take the next step and become a selling league) , as opposed to signing name players just to goose ticket/shirt sales.
  2. Going to give this a miss. Pretty sure I'm not going to be paying much if any attention to this Mundial.
  3. I actually held back on making an "SCR is old" joke about that. Was going to say that he could be a featured speaker at Trafalgar Day events, tell the crowd what his reaction was when he heard the news.
  4. Or just any time a new monarch takes the throne, turn that day into a bank holiday. Charles takes over 8 September, so 8 September is Charles Day or something. Wills then takes over on, say, 11 June, then Charles Day is replaced with William Day.
  5. Helpful to folks who may have forgotten an item for their Great British meal to honor Her Late Maj.
  6. Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government.
  7. Absolutely appalling effort from you there @Confused Clarity. I can only hope that you at least held a 2-minutes silence in memory of YOUR QUEEN as soon as you saw the black ribbon. Otherwise you should be done for treason. Respectfully, Disgusted Tunbridge Wells
  8. Trump is kicked off Twitter of course, and I'm not signed up for his low-energy Twitter knockoff, so this is the best you'll get.
  9. If she's tenured she'll be tough to dislodge. It is a private university though, so they'd have more room to sack her than a public university would.
