Pasadena’s defense was flying and sliding to make tackles, especially freshman defender Jeremiah Alomo. Alomo showed key defensive prowess, anchoring down the Lancers’ defense with on-ball tackles in the box that prevented scoring opportunities for the opposition. “[Alomo] did a …

Walz is a knucklehead and Vance is a less crazy Trump
Share: In a rather refreshing turn of events, the vice presidential debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz showed a display of professionalism and civility that has unfortunately become something of a rarity in political debates.

This is exactly how a vice presidential debate should be conducted, as the main purpose of a vice presidential candidate during a …

They are often used in order to put on muscle mass or to lose fat to make one’s muscles look more “aesthetic.” Many claim that overeating and bulking is bad for you, which is often found to be true, yet I disagree. If you are dedicated to the gym and have strong discipline, bulking …
