Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens on the other side of the ball and these dudes talking about doodling stars 😭😭
Good example of "just because someone say it on the internet, doesn't come close to making it true"
Wil Wheaton loses it on J.K. Rowling and Harry Potter:
“J.K. Rowling’s a piece of s***. She’s a hateful, disgusting, despicable human being. She gets off on the suffering of others. I don’t know what her f***ing problem is. I don’t know why she can’t leave people alone. I hate her, and what I want everyone to understand is, when you watch this program, you are putting money in her pocket that she turns around and spends to hurt people.”
Does this make you like JK Rowling less or more?
Australians keep coming at Americans, but no matter what they do or say, will never be “The World’s Super Power” 😸🦾💣

Growing up in Canada, we were filled with anti-American propaganda. And I didn’t realize when I was growing up, but many Canadians have this constant energy of trying to prove they are better than America.
Constantly feigning moral superiority over Americans.
When I moved to Australia, it was the same thing. A constant proving of why they are better than the US.
Here’s what Canadians and Australians don’t realize…Americans don’t think about them at all.
They don’t spend time trying to prove they are better.
They just go live their lives and try to be the best.
Posts like this 👇🏻 just give Americans entertainment until college football starts again. But keep coping I guess.

A: Puts ball in net. A lot. Wins handily
W: "We hate you so much"
A: "Hahaha put ball in net fun!"

I feel like some soccer fans of other countries are missing a lot of context in their annoyance with American confidence about the World Cup.
The vast majority of us don’t actually think we’re gonna win the whole thing. Even those of us who know very little about soccer know enough to understand our small chances.
But that doesn’t matter. You’re talking about a nation built on a steady diet of believing anything’s possible.
We don’t care about odds. We care about winning. And in service to that mindset, we are more than happy to buy into a suspension of logic and rational thinking.
The thought of being in a competition and not believing we can win it, even in defiance of odds, is incomprehensible to us.
But moreover, what do we lose in believing we can win in a sport that has a mere of fraction of our emotional investment in other sports?
Not a damn thing. We’ve already exceeded our own expectations, so why not push for more?
The problem with not loving your country is that you probably won’t do more to improve it, other than criticize it. Loving your country means preserving and improving for all other citizens.
