“Mom?
Mom.
Wake up mom.  It’s beautiful outside.  It snowed overnight!
Can we play?  Have a bottle of Coke?  Just like the humans portray us on TV?
Are you too tired Mom?  ‘Cause it’s cool if you are.
I’ll just play with my teddy humans.
Okay?
You keep sleeping Mom.  We’ll be right here.
Eating fish.  Maybe.
Love you Mom.
Love you.”

eject: An Open Letter To Myself About BULLSHIT and THE ART of MAKING Material Objects IMPORTANT AND FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS

3. U.S. Soccer will never “arrive” … and that’s OK.


Every time our men’s or women’s team makes a run in a major tournament, commentators start wondering aloud whether our players are finally competing with the world’s best, our leagues are finally matching international quality and our program is finally reaching some mythical pinnacle. And it’s silly. The rest of the world has been prioritizing this sport for over a century, just as we’ve been doing with sports like basketball and baseball. Do you think the Italians and Spanish are sitting around wondering when their hoops leagues will be as good as the NBA? No. They’re just psyched when one of their own makes it here, and we should be equally psyched when our players—think Dempsey, Tim Howard, Michael Bradley, Jermaine Jones and more—make it over there. After all, Brazil’s pro league is basically shite, and that hasn’t stopped them from winning five World Cups.

very very good points
