We have several scintillating European football/soccer games on tap for your viewing pleasure today. All times Pacific:

Europa League

English League One

Wrexham v Birmingham

As Al Michaels would say, this is a YUUGE game in Wrexham’s quest to secure yet another promotion, this time into the English Championship.

In their way are the runaway League leaders, Birmingham, who have two games in hand over their closest competition:

As you may be able to tell by the color coding, the top two teams automatically are promoted. The next four participate in playoffs to determine one team that will join the top two.

While catching Birmingham may not be a realistic possibility, a win for Wrexham would allow them to tie Wycombe on points with the knowledge that Wanderers still need to play Birmingham.

Who are you rooting for?

When trolls mess with you, you can either run or troll them right back.

I think maybe a response of “I bet your dad does, too” might be a bit better, since it avoids having them thinking about you masturbating and makes them think about their dad doing so instead. Or maybe “your sister told me that she does, too” works too, unless you are in a Confederate state, of course.

Comeback Player of the Year will be close this year: Damar Hamlin who technically died and Sam Darnold who played for the Jets which is a fate worse than death.

Joe Burrow is also nominated, either that or they went ahead and named the award after him.

Why don’t they rename it after Kim Kardashian?

So I stepped in a hole created by a cracked lid to…I don’t know something in the sidewalk and kind of hyperextended my knee. And it doesn’t really hurt, so it’s not injured, but I’m *aware* of it so I’m going to be freaking out about it all day thinking I tore my PCL or something.

Don’t be like me and blow it off for a year, and discover you’ve ruined 45% of the meniscus in there.

Deal.

Look for swelling or stability issues at end of the day. Swelling means something is inflamed and healing. Stability means something is torn and the knee is trying to compensate.

Remember RICE: Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevate.

I would say to do the Rice thingy for the first 24-48 hours then replace ice with heat

When I did something to my knee it took about 3-4 days to go from ‘aware’ to ‘hurt’. It wasn’t awful, whatever it was, but it took a really long time to fully heal and I’m still kinda paranoid about it

Wolverhampton, Wycombe, Bolton…why does English soccer have so many Wanderers?

Remind me to put that on a dozen Red Hats and sell them at the next Trump Bund Rally.

Reposting this Don T contribution from last night, with the suggestion that Urban Meyer should get himself a plaque like this.

How does it price out if you put the demons from Diabo 3 in charge of a fleet of commercial drones with grenades and nazi paraphrenalia taped to them?

this is an oddly specific question for someone that may or may not be looking for a new volcanic lair
