    I wonder how many Chads I could get to tune into an Ayn Rand-craft brewery podcast called Atlas Chugged?

    Class of 1986. We didn’t have soccer or baseball at one of the largest schools in the state. So I played club soccer after I blew out my knee playing football and wound up playing in college.

    Class of '84. My football coach said soccer was Communist. Not gay, faggy, girly, fancy-pants, sissified or anything else. Just straight-ass Communist. We didn't have soccer in our town, only youth baseball, softball, hoops and football. The HS didn't have a soccer team until, I think, 2010, but has been successful with it.

    I've told this story here before but in my senior year, our foreign exchange student, Antonio de longnameIforget was from Spain and a soccer player ot course. So our somewhat delusional coaches made him Delaware's first soccer-style placekicker. He was a flop because in his words "Antonio does not like to get hit." He did make one field goal in a game which caused our opponents to collapse in awe. What he was really good at was getting laid, so the team admired him even as the coaches hated him.

    Class of 1987. We had boys and girls soccer in the winter. Semi-robust youth soccer (AYSO). Football was king in the one high school city I grew up in. And I can't think of any sports we didn't have back then other than lacrosse, which was an East Coast thing when I was growing up and I was in inland SoCal.

    Class of 93. We got soccer about midway through high school. I actually toyed with the idea of going out for the team on the basis of having kicked a ball in the park a few times. There is a non-zero chance I would have made the roster.

    Totally agree. He seems so much more confident than I thought he'd be when I heard him on podcasts in his previous gig.
    And as to white women allegedly souring on Trump, their support at any level is every bit as baffling to me as the topic Enten touched on recently: why Black men are lukewarm on Harris.

    Thanks again for all these clips, Della.

    This interview was another new low for Fucko the Klown. Fuck off, Fucko!
    And props to Bloomberg EIC John Micklethwait for challenging him repeatedly.
