Great observations. I compare Messi to a billiards wizard who was setting things up all game for that killer 8 ball shot.

Remember how Gabriel Jesus specifically chose Man City years ago to play for Guardiola when he has other offers? Now Guardiola is his worst enemy.

As a Barcelona fan, this entire situation is nothing but pain.

Messi PSG goal reminded me of the hat trick 3rd he made against Ecuador to get Argentina into the 2018 World Cup during qualifying. Left foot, off balance. This time with a brilliant Mbappé delivery.

I’m enjoying the newsletter, and especially these emails that you get out so quickly. The only issue is that some of us watch later on DVR when we have other obligations like doing things with our kids or work. Could you just put the teams in the email title and then there wouldn’t be any spoilers for people like me?

Thanks for all the great content!

Yeah I thought we addressed this after the Chelsea game and Grant apologized and thanked us for the suggestion...maybe he spaced?

It's one thing for a game to start at 4:30 am Pacific. But a game that takes place in the afternoon is different for me from a news perspective. Let me get this straight: Your only issue is that the score is in the headline?

It’s not really fair to ask Grant to not put the score in the headline. Every article and video puts the score in the title so people can find the article or video online. I see where you’re coming from, but it’s like asking a newspaper not to put who won and the score in the title of their article.

Disagree. I avoid articles or videos or Twitter etc… for exactly that reason when I have to watch on DVR. I don’t avoid email because there are lots of reasons I still need to be on email.

Yes. I can avoid results by not going on the rest of the internet, but I do check email and the score is right there and I can’t avoid the spoiler.

It’s fine to put the score in the headline. You have to because it’s the title. Every video and article online has the winner and score in the title.
