By Joe Torosian Kick it! The Rams dropped their 2026 unis last night, and I’m so glad it is done. I love the white and blue. I love the 1951 historic. My only problem is that somewhere during the 2026 season they will employ those horrific Midnight Mode/Blue/Rivalry uniforms.

By Joe Torosian Kick it! Is anyone other than the media on pins and needles waiting for LeBron James to make a decision? NFL uniform reveals are more compelling. (Tell me LeBron’s negotiations don’t involve bringing Bronny with him? Please.) Saw a great question this morning…Will Lamar Jackson ever win a Super Bowl?

By Joe Torosian Kick it! Gosh, did that suck! I know I’m opening myself up for criticism, but that World Cup final felt like 120+ minutes of two teams trying not to lose. (I won’t even go into the horrific second Yellow Card that left Argentina with 10 men on the pitch.)

By Joe Torosian Kick it! I’m getting excited about college football, but is anyone else a bit tired of USC-San Jose State? I know they haven’t played since 2023, but it feels like they play all the time. The Trojans playing the Spartans is like taking your girlfriend to AM-PM on the first date. “Baby, […]

By Joe Torosian Kick it! Call me crazy,  but when you give up three goals in less than twenty minutes, it doesn’t mean you got robbed. It means you choked. If we want to get into conspiracies, since he’s tight with Argentina’s Javier Milei, Trump probably called FIFA to make sure the fix was in […]

By Joe Torosian Kick it! In 1994, soccer in the U.S. was said to have reached a turning point… In 2026, we’re still waiting for it to complete the turn. How marvelous…

By Joe Torosian Kick it! Many of the same people screaming injustice over Folarin Balogun’s Red Card suspension are now screaming injustice over him being cleared to play. Do you think it has anything to do with Trump’s name being attached to it? Lol.

By Joe Torosian Kick it! As a Casual, aren’t the Actuals making too much out of Team USA’s loss to Turkey last night?  Or are the people yacking like Actuals really just Posers, who don’t understand how the World Cup/Soccer works?
