England manager Sarina Wiegman has fulfilled her goal of using Euro 2022 to fuel the nation's passion for women's football and victory in Sunday's final against Germany would consummate the burgeoning love affair.

"For English women's football this is a great moment. Fittingly it is Germany, the European nation that for so long led the drive in professionalism and standards for women's football that stand in the way of England's history bid.

On Tuesday, Jesse Puljujarvi inked a one-year, $3 million contract ahead of his arb hearing, and with that bit of business out of the way, the question becomes whether Kailer Yamamoto follows suit. My guess is that Yamamoto signs a three-year deal with an AAV of around $3.5 million. Not only did Mattias clarify that the party was bumpin’ in the caption, but the look on his face says everything I needed to see.

The relationship between the TTP and the TTA (Afghan Taliban) has been a source of the good-Taliban-bad-Taliban binary for long. If you have not noticed, the US and its installed government are gone, and the Taliban now control the country.
