I hope everyone is managing the great water main break of 2018 - the glorious year in the future in which our infrastructure is totally not a crumbling hulk of past greatness that is hurtling us towards a dystopian future we are ill-prepared for and even less able to comprehend.

The USWNT won the SheBelieves Cup beating England 1-0.
Former South Carolina striker Savannah McCaskill was one of the few bright spots on the field for the USWNT in their game against France on Sunday in the SheBelieves Cup. Kevin McCauley has a look at what makes her so effective, be it in a different position.
Let’s check in on the Chicago Fire with this in depth look at their season which kicks off this weekend. From our friends over at Hot Time In Old Town.
As an old, I didn’t make it to the end of New York Red Bulls at Club Tijuana on Tuesday, but Luis Robles had himself a night. He’s good, he’s baldish, and he has always been underrated - perhaps it’s time for him to get a call up again.

I guess there’s always next year Spurs fans - Juventus knocked out Tottenham from Champions League in heartbreaking fashion.
U wot m8? If you only read one story here today read about West Ham and its relationship with hooligan groups that support the team and the drama among the supporters. Relations are... strained to say the least. I’m foreeeeeevvvvver blowing bubbles.
