It’s hard to decide who I would rather lose the Europa League. Probably Spuds but it’s close.

I wouldn’t want him to be sold unless it was a very significant transfer fee

Just released. Featuring J Mascis and Juliana Hatfield.

I was lucky enough to be at a live, radio set that The Lemonheads played, today. It was a fun time. Evan Dando mentioned that as well as the upcoming album, they have already recorded a whole other album.

Bummer. However, I've been to pre-season games and they are usually mediocre, at best. IDK if it being Spuds, would make a difference?

Also, imagine hearing "YNWA" every day since you were born and then deciding that "never" has some caveats.

Speed watched this when I woke up. Was very worried that it would end in a massacre after those first two goals. So, it was a very good point, in context. To come back, despite running on the sniff of an oily rag, is laudable. 🔴⚪️

It just crossed my radar that RK are reuniting and have some upcoming dates in the US and one in Canada. Also some reissues.

Enjoy a super low quality MV of this song.

One-Nil to the Arsenal - 99% Invisible (99percentinvisible.org)
 

When Arsenal striker Kai Havertz stepped up to take a penalty against Bournemouth last season, it felt like his career was a crossroads. The German forward had joined Arsenal from their London rivals Chelsea for a hefty £60 million transfer fee, but he still hadn’t found the back of the net. And critics were questioning whether all that money had been a waste.

But when Havertz smashed the penalty into the bottom left corner and wheeled away to celebrate, 40,000 Arsenal supporters erupted into a brand new song—a remix of Shakira’s 2010 World Cup hit “Waka Waka,” with new, bespoke lyrics: “sixty million down the drain, Kai Havertz scores again.”

The Arsenal fans were serenading their new striker and laughing at his critics by saying: “who’s a waste of money now?”

This bizarre scene exemplifies a European football tradition that has evolved into a folk art form over decades, particularly in the English Premier League. Every weekend, supporters fill stadiums with complex, often witty songs that blend pop culture with football passion—creating a soundscape unlike anything in American sports.
