World Cup 2026 Tickets: If you still believe FIFA cares about Fans, you’re fooling Yourself
World Cup 2026 ticket prices aren’t a mistake. They are proof. Proof that FIFA no longer represents football fans, that national associations lack courage, and that we allowed it to happen. We complain, we outrage — and then we comply. This is not betrayal by FIFA alone. It’s collective failure, includng national associations and us, the fans.
World Cup 2026 Draw: The Day FIFA finally stopped Pretending
The World Cup 2026 draw didn’t just embarrass FIFA—it exposed a corrupt system that has completely rotted from within. Instead of a celebration of football, fans were served a political circus built on vanity, power, and Gianni Infantino’s shameless self-promotion. With a bloated 48-team format and a president who caters to dictators and dollars, the tournament has lost its soul. Unless the great football nations finally revolt, we’re not watching a World Cup—we’re watching the funeral of the sport we once loved.
Counting the Days until I can stop buying Capsules
I am counting the days until I can stop buying Nespresso capsules and finally welcome real coffee into my home. After seven months of waiting, my Zuriga espresso machine and grinder will soon be ready and I already imagine the aroma of freshly ground beans filling my kitchen. Capsule coffee was convenient, but it never touched the heart. A proper espresso has warmth, character and a small moment of magic. Soon the morning ritual will return and every cup will feel alive again. Sometimes the anticipation is almost as satisfying as the first sip.
Papaya Paradox: How McLaren’s own Rules undermined Oscar Piastri’s Championship Run
McLaren’s 2025 season exposed a “Papaya Paradox”: Oscar Piastri had the pace to lead the championship, yet the team’s own rules and conservative strategy calls repeatedly held him back. From split strategies to enforced position swaps, McLaren routinely favoured Norris, costing Piastri an estimated 41–47 points. The article argues that the real damage wasn’t just lost results, but the erosion of trust — a driver can fight rivals, but not his own team’s decisions.
