Xavi Simons never had a Plan B. It was football or nothing. He spent 20 of his 23 years chasing the dream of becoming great.
Then, late last season, he tore his ACL.
The injury hurt. Missing the 2026 World Cup hurt even more.
But the nights were the hardest. Just @xavisimons, his thoughts, and the weight of a dream suddenly put on hold. There were nights he cried himself to sleep—even the dream that had driven him his entire life couldn’t comfort him.

people try to label me a centrist but truth is that modern online leftism has converged on an incoherent muddle of pseudo anarchism—I believe in effective, efficient government that delivers for the people, and I’m happy to see Zohran reclaiming true progressive values
🚨 At the U20 Mayors Summit, Mamdani Says the Left Has Ceded “Quality of Life,” “Efficiency,” and “Fraud and Waste” to the Right
This was one of the more interesting arguments Zohran Mamdani made today at the U20 Mayors Summit, and a reminder that he can be genuinely sharp when he drops the “central casting” routine.
“In New York City, there are certain words that have taken on ideological associations.”
“Quality of life has come to be seen as somehow a right-wing concern. Efficiency… has been taken on as a right-wing concern, rooting out fraud and waste, a right-wing concern.”
Mamdani’s argument is that refusing to engage those issues actually helps the Right.
“If you are staring at an example of social disorder or social inefficiency, and the left refuses to explain either why it has happened or how they will fix it, then the right gets to point at someone in the immediate area and say, ‘That’s who did it.’”
The harder question is how much of the broader Left is actually prepared to follow the advice.

Maybe I’m in the minority, but I loved how international GT’s student body was and how we graduate the most black engineers.
This racism/nationalism trend is scary and detrimental to OUR future.

These young South American attackers gotta stop thinking they’re Vini too.
Go to Europe and play then worry about Real Madrid later.
¡ESTA IMAGEN NOS ROMPIÓ EL CORAZÓN!
Durante la goleada del Real Madrid ante Rayo Vallecano en la Liga de España.
Mientras todos los jugadores del Real Madrid están haciendo trabajos de calentamiento para hacer su ingreso al partido, las cámaras de la trasmisión, se fueron con Endrick, quien estaba en el banquillo.
El joven brasileño de 19 años, se percató en la pantalla del estadio de que las cámaras lo estaban enfocando, y no pudo ocultar su tristeza. Endrick no ha jugado un solo minuto en toda la temporada con José Mourinho. Venía de jugar 6 meses fantásticos con el Olympique de Lyon, disputó su primera Copa del Mundo.
CUANTO DUELE VER ASÍ A ENDRICK.

Hindsight is 20/20 but Muyumba and Fortune are too similar to be dual 8s. Gil please #ATLUTD

NYRB being a youth team is such wasted potential man.
Red Bull New York’s Starting XI in the match vs. Seattle Sounders FC was the youngest in MLS history, with an average age of 22 years, 24 days (22.066 years old).

Chicharito had a bar on how MLS and Liga Mx need the thing the other has.
MLS has global star pull but no hardcore club culture. Liga Mx has the culture but not the names.

Embolo may not be a golden boot guy but he does the positional work so well he won’t be a liability like some of our past DPs #ATLUTD
