Pineapple not going with tomato sauce or cheese I can get, but not going with *ham*? O.o That was a thing long before Hawaiian pizza ever was.

Results Round of 16 Fluminense 2 - 0 Inter Milan Al-Hilal 4 - 3 Manchester City Quarterfinals Palmeiras - Chelsea Fluminense - Al-Hilal Paris Saint-Germain - Bayern Munich There was a nice nod to Tyrese Haliburton in the stands after Al-Hilal's winning goal:

Nah, Parmigiano Reggiano is readily available in North America. You can buy them by the wheel at Costco if you're particularly crazy (and have a use for ~80lbs of cheese). Ofc the cheap processed stuff is most commonly used, most Italian American dishes don't use real Parmesan, and stuff like Reggianito is cheaper (and also widely available) as well. But I assure you that I've had real Parmigiano Reggiano - and I've definitively used it in unorthodox ways :P Now Casu Martzu you won't find in Canada or the US, because it's illegal to import. And TBH I don't feel like I'm missing out on that one.

The purists are really missing out on that one. Ham and pineapple is a classic combination for a reason.

There's really nobody (okay, maybe except that one Malaysian comedian who thinks not owning a rice cooker is a crime against humanity) that is more needlessly pretentious about their cuisine than the Italians. Even the French have less of a stick up their arses. IDGAF what anyone in Europe thinks, Napolitan spaghetti is good, and it's even better seasoned with Italian tears.

Pretty embarassing performance by against . Anyway, best of luck going forward. Sure would be nice to see a country other than and win this tournament.

I think ranking types of cheeses is an inherently stupid idea ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Feels worth highlighting Haoxi "Simon" Wang being picked 33rd. By far the most promising hockey player to ever come out of China.

For anyone else who recognized the name and spat out their coffee, this isn't the Winston Tang who founded Leetcode.

Obviously she accidentally injested it when cooking pasta for her horse. (The actual explaination she is giving is that it is cough medicine)

Canada won it's group in the Gold Cup to earn a date with in the quarterfinals.

Don't scare me like that, I thought you were going to say she was transfering to

Kristi Coventry is now officially the 10th IOC president.

Interesting minor tweek, the mass start now requires any OQT rather than requiring a less stringent 1500m time.

Correct. I believe there is currently a similar rule for first to 21 games, where they end automatically if anyone reaches 35 points.

Once again in the ballpark on a beautiful Seattle summer day. The Urawa fans are deafening. The Inter Milan fans are dead silent, they are seen but not heard.

IMO that’s good news given the circumstances. I was worried they would get the extra 12 quotas by reducing the size of the teams from 3 to 2.

The problem there is that you’d also need some additional individual quotas to keep it fair for the countries not qualified in the mixed team event.

Mixed team results: Gold: Georgia Silver: South Korea Bronze: Japan and Germany

and both fail to make the finals O.o lost 4-3 to in the QF and 4-1 to in the repechage. lost 4-2 to .

Superbowl-winning tight-end Anthony Auclaire, who was last an NFL started in the 2021 season, has been named to the national team. Katie Sowers, who was previously in the 49ers coaching staff, is also interested in being in the coaching staff for Canada's womens team.

Also like Russia is already a European country for sports purposes anyway…

It looks like these European regional champions are only able to perform in the soft European winters during the off season and that they aren’t built for the crucible of summer, when God intended for people to play soccer. Sure PSG won League 1 and the Champions League, but can they do it on a sunny night in Los Angeles? So far the answer is no.

Hey, AFAIK there are at least four of them!

Those bans have an exclusion for athletes. Which I suspect is something his good buddies Infantino and the Olympic champion from 1976 lobbied for.
