As a part-American, allow me explain the difference. I have been to many sporting events all around the USA, and of course, many in the UK and in Europe (because Aston Villa are massive). For Americans, sport is about entertainment. Big scores, no draws. What happens on the pitch...

2001 - This one seriously cut me up. This is a drive through #Walthamstow and #Leyton (where I was born) in 2001. At the time this was filmed, I was about 13 and making the most of the area. Seeing the high street is utterly chilling. I was the trolley pusher for my beautiful, beloved grandmother who familiarized me with these very sights throughout my earth youth. Seeing them genuinely stops my heart, especially knowing she, my grandfather, and many other friends and family members were all walking around these streets at the time. Yes, the place looks run down, but it was part of my home, and it's what made us who we are. Now, it's a shadow of its former self and becoming more and more unrecognizable. You will see pubs, shops, and even the Riley's snooker hall that has been pretty much forgotten. They pass the old station and even visited the market, which played such a massive part of my early life. From a very young age, I was busy at Lloyd's Park or meeting friends to go into the city among these roads. When they turn onto the market, the nostalgia is literally overwhelming. Woolworths. Percy Ingles, fish and chip shops, and many places that were part of my life. At the very end they drive into Whipps Cross, the hospital that I and so many of my friends were born. And of course, where many of the people we love died. (Which looks very different now). I wonder who the children are in the back of the car. They'd only be a few years younger and many of my family members were at the time. This area was rough as nails with series crime issues even then, but it also produced some of the most loving people I've ever known. #RIP The good old days.

WATCH: CNN’s Scott Jennings sounds off on the scene in Hostage Square chanting President Trump’s name, the pride today of being an American, and his interview on the radio show earlier with Yael Bar tur 🤞... “I mean, as an American, my heart couldn't be more full. I mean, The United States of America today in its President, Donald Trump, is at the forefront of the most important thing going on in this world the release of these hostages and the possibility of a standing peace in the Middle East, where there simply just hasn't been any. And so, as an American, the fact that we're leading this effort, that we’re leading this coalition, that the President leading this effort, that we're leading this coalition, that the President was able to bring the Arab states together to get Netanyahu and that relationship, they have, in line enough to pull this off, I mean, it makes my heart so full that this is the power of the United States of America.” “This is what makes us the most unique country in the most important superpower in the world. I've had a range of emotions today because, as you know, I care deeply about these hostages. I could watch those videos all day and I have been watching them all day. I am still very sad for the 24 families for whom this is not over. Hamas has not produced the remains yet of, I think 24 people that were hoping come out soon, but I interviewed a lady on my radio show today, Yael Bar tur, who was in Hostage Square, and she was a counselor to some of the hostage families. She was at that rally, and she told me today, the unbelievable support for Donald Trump and for the American people, you could feel it in the air. It was palpable. The appreciation that those Israelis have for Trump and for the United. States of America. And if that doesn't make you feel patriotic about your own country, then I don't know what to say. It makes me feel great as an American that we are leading an effort for peace and hopefully prosperity in a region that has struggled with it.”

Soccer is booming in the United States and World Cup viewership shows there is MASSIVE interest, but it will never be the priority and always play 5th fiddle to the Big 4 sports in America unless Americans fundamentally change their approach to youth sports. American Soccer is behind the rest of the world for 3 reasons: 1. Cultural Sporting DNA In the USA, Soccer competes in a crowded field of Football, Basketball, Baseball and Hockey instead of dominating like abroad. Europe and the rest of the world built soccer through community clubs, local pride and it being their default sport. They are born with a soccer ball on their feet. 2. Pay-to-Play Barrier In the USA most youth are priced out of playing because the cost to be on the team is too expensive. Currently there is a 14% decline in youth soccer participation between ages 6 to 12. Europe and the rest of world’s accessible club model keeps more kids in the game longer. 3. Less participation in the sport An all time high 16.8 million youth played outdoor soccer in the USA in 2025, but per capita the USA is far behind other European countries like Belgium which has a 3x higher rate of participation for its population size. For American soccer to catch up, it has to change its sporting culture focus to development instead of making money and lower the cost barrier for participation through state and government funded clubs over the next 20 years. Development needs to be the priority, not maximizing how much money can be made off the athlete and their parents. Instead of focusing on the old statement of “if our best athletes played”, focus on making the best athletes want to keep playing and the ones who do play the beautiful game better at it. Then and only then can we find our Erling Haaland, Lamine Yamal, Messi, Ronaldo or Jude Bellingham. We have to build the structure for them to develop in. #FIFAWorldCup #FIFAWorldCup2026 #Football #Soccer #RG3 #OuttaPocket #USA

Farewell to International Space Station! This is truly a special place, special mission, and special team that makes it happen. It is a bittersweet departure today – I have a keen awareness that I may never be back here, and even if I was, it would be at a different time with a different crew. This chapter is over. Spaceflight has always been a life goal, and it has turned into a life-fulfilling endeavor – but not for the reasons I thought growing up. When I was young, I pictured the launch, the incredible ball of fire and the acceleration, the spacewalks (how could you not wonder what it’s like to be in that suit?), and I was fascinated by the shuttles, capsules, and stations. But as I complete this second mission living and working in space, what draws me to this job is the people. Experiences like this are amazing, but the relationships we build that make it possible are the “why.” Every day, this mission depends on people from all over the world, of different nationalities, races, religions, and cultures. It depends on government and commercial entities, it depends on all political parties, and it depends on commitment to an unchanged goal over many years and decades. It depends on people dedicated to being part of something bigger than themselves, whose names may never be known but who wake up every day to make the world a better place and to be part of something they will be proud to tell their grandkids about. History will look kindly upon them. Humans have always had a propensity to explore … across lands and oceans, up mountains, and into the sky. We as a species will never stop wondering what else is out there, and what it would be like to go. But then, in the words of TS Elliot, “…at the end of all our exploring, will be to arrive where we started, and know the place for the first time.” Crew-10 is on its way home.
