Wembley: Football Association offered £800m to sell national football stadium: Are Jaguars moving to London? Even if the Jags don't come, the English national team would no longer call Wembley home, so Woy isn't in favor.

What's annoying me just this moment is ESPN is showing the Spanish SuperCup on ESPNNews channel but no English commentary. How much more would it cost to have it from two guys in the studio when they're also showing it on ESPN Deportes for the Spanish market/SAP?!?!
But also, Turner Broadcasting is dreaming if they think they'll get Americans to subscribe to their streaming channel just to get Champions League and Europa League. I'll just be sure to go to watch in some bar when Liverpool aren't on free to me.

SI: Five million words to say players might make more money because of this deal. But not yet since $25M is a drop in the $7.4B bucket. Great article :p

The article I read mentioned the consequences to friends and family in Turkey for athletes and celebs who refuse to play ball with Erdogan. I don't think refusing was realistic. And if you read his rant, the head of the German FA certainly seems to be pushing his own brand of racially-based politics on this. I don't blame Ozil.

Pallotta unloaded on Liverpool after the Reds squeaked by Roma in the Champions League semis three months ago, which increases the surprise factor of the deal for sure.

Apparently Henderson was playing with a "minor hamstring" issue that worsened as the match went on. Klopp will not be happy that Southgate kept him on the field until extra time, or even played him at all. Most Liverpool fans will not be so nice.

SportsFilter: The Thursday Huddle
If the NFL and NBA and MLB can play outside, so can La Liga. No definitive plans announced yet but the first edition could come this season in partnership with Relevent, who run the big money International Champions Cup.
