Woman Goes Viral After Tweeting Her Experience Binge Watching Ted Lasso: TRAINA THOUGHTS

At first @mixbecca was disgusted by a soccer show, then she fell in love

1. “after seeing so many people tweet about ted lasso i finally caved and looked up the show and it’s about……soccer???”

That was a tweet sent by @mixbecca on Saturday. She gave Ted Lasso a shot despite the show being about soccer, and what happened next was great.

@mixbecca live tweeted while she watched and fell in love with the first season of the AppleTV+ hit show. The tweets caused “Ted Lasso” to trend on Twitter and they even caught the eye of the show’s star, Jason Sudeikis.

Below are just some of @mixbecca’s tweets. You can click in and check her feed to see a lot more.

Fortunately for @mixbecca and everyone else who watched Season 1, we are less than a month away from Season 2.

2. ESPN has announced its full roster of NHL announcers for next season. Sean McDonough, Steve Levy, John Buccigross, Bob Wischusen and Leah Hextall will all handle play-by-play for the network. Mark Messier and Chris Chelios highlight a long list of analysts. You can see the full list of announcers here.

3. Last week we saw MLB players stripping on the field as a result of the new checks being done by umpires to find illegal substances. Last night, Trevor Bauer got a full hand massage. This is all getting so erotic.

4. I can't say I ever thought The View would make it into Traina Thoughts, but there are few things in this world I love more than train-wreck television. And this as classic train-wreck television.

During a conversation Tuesday about Olympic hammer thrower Gwen Berry's protesting during the national anthem at the Tokyo 2020 trials this weekend, Meghan McCain somehow connected Berry's turning around during the national anthem to Vladimir Putin. She then ended her intense rambling by saying she's willing to die for the flag and this topic. 

I was literally LOL'ing for real at my desk at the end of this ridiculous clip. You just can't get this worked up about someone turning around during the national anthem.
