USMNT goalie Matt Freese is known for his cerebral approach to the game. Makes sense: he comes from a family of renowned scientists. He also attended Harvard and once wrote a research project on penalty kicks. Profiled Freese for @NBCNews: nbcnews.com/sports/soccer/ma…

I’m taking NJ Transit to get to MetLife for Brazil-Morocco. Here’s my experience @NBCNews:
—1 pm: buy a ticket via NJ Transit app
—1:05: line up with fans in fenced area outside Penn Station and MSG
—1:25ish: we’re funneled through security, ticket scan, etc. (thread 1/5)

Paraguay-U.S. is underway in "Los Angeles Stadium," where I spoke with several fans who said they'd picked up their tickets only in the last week, waiting for prices to fall. Still, it's nearly full here.

The Spurs were down 2-0 and heading into hostile Madison Square Garden for Game 3. So what did Victor Wembanyama do to prepare? He went to a quiet NYC park and drew a sketch. My dispatch from the Spurs' side after their Game 3 win for @NBCNews: nbcnews.com/sports/nba/victo…

I talked World Cup ticket prices this morning with @WatchSavannah and @JoeFryer — got to get into the research @RohanNadkarni and I did for the story (we spent an afternoon looking up hundreds of hotel and ticket prices)

If you work for a rival publication and show up to the same game as Steph, good luck. Because odds are she’s going to find a better angle, something brilliant and original, and write circles around you. Can’t wait to read her stuff again when someone hires her soon.
Eight days shy of my 15th anniversary at Sports Illustrated, I’ve been informed that I’ve joined the extensive ranks of writers laid off from there. I loved my time at SI, I’m very sad to see it end and I’m eager to do the best work of my career elsewhere. Thank you for reading.
