Sports
The scores.
The standings.
The fun side of the site, with footnotes. I tracked the 2026 World Cup matchday by matchday — every score exact, every table derived, every kickoff in Eastern time — and I called every match in public before it kicked off, which was either confidence or a mistake; the ledger says which. It’s a sealed record now, next to Qatar 2022 and Wimbledon. No odds, no betting content, ever. The jokes are free; the data is load-bearing.
Final record
Soccer
The 2026 World Cup, tracked matchday by matchday and now closed: Spain beat Argentina 1–0 after extra time in the New York/New Jersey final. Every fixture and result, all twelve group tables with the qualification lines drawn, the full knockout bracket, a per-match page for every game with my pick frozen on it before kickoff, and a printable wall chart filled in to the last row. The section’s first resident sport; others will join it here.

Tennis
The US Open 2026, tracked day by day and now closed: Alexander Zverev beat Ben Shelton in four sets for his first title here, six years after leading the 2020 final by two sets and losing it; Elena Rybakina beat Aryna Sabalenka for the women’s title and the No. 1 ranking. All five draws, a page for every match with my pick frozen on it before the first serve, the day-by-day schedule, the court assignments and the two stat leaderboards. Wimbledon 2026 and both 2025 majors sit alongside it, sealed and sourced.
