Been meaning to go back on the skateboard but I either didn’t have the time or didn’t have the weather to do it

A person sitting on a skateboard is in the foreground, with Strava running stats and the text Lil’ lunch break running errands today overlaid on the image.

I swear these people are corrupt and incompetent criminals!

With less than two weeks until the 2026 World Cup kicks off, FIFA suddenly will no longer allow fans to bring reusable water bottles into stadiums across the United States, Canada and Mexico.

🏆🇫🇷⚽️ Was able to get to the Parc Des Princes this Saturday to watch the #ChampionsLeague final at PSG’s stadium, courtesy of my cousin!

Incredible atmosphere with 48.000 PSG fans!

Some of y’all here will know I’m not a PSG fan, but when it’s Paris VS London, always happy to support the city! What a great atmosphere in town and an exciting start to the summer season

Congrats to Arsenal on a hard-fought #PremierLeague season. A big summer awaits for my Manchester City team, along with a new manager, some transfer shenanigans.

Now I can focus on 🏀 #ParisBasketball’s playoffs and later on the #WorldCup for this summer ⚽️ 🇫🇷

Paris Basketball: 1st spot of the regular season in the French Domestic League

5/16/26

A small French basketball update: Paris Basketball had a really up-and-down season, 12 players left/traded/bought out after last season.

We didn’t make the Euroleague playoffs and in the domestic league we kept showing up against big teams but struggling against smaller ones.

Today was the last “match day” and we were 3rd in the league. Coming into this, anyone from 1st (Monaco) through 4th could’ve snatched the first place, and finish on top of the regular season before the play-ins next week.

We won, tonight, against Tony Parker’s ASVEL (87-76), and our rivals lost, therefore ensuring 1st place and homecourt advantage. LFG!

First run since the my injury (lower leg muscle tear) and the weather lately has made it difficult to find a suitable time and opportunity.

Glad I could get back to it and at almost a regular pace too!

🏀🏀🏀 And while we’re on topic, my #ParisBasketball team beat a depleted Monaco team.

All to play for next week in the final game of the regular season, with a chance to seed higher ahead of the #LNB #BetclicElite playoffs!

Your favorite French Washington Wizards fan, just here to say: WE ARE SO BACK! #NBA #DraftLottery

The Wizards with the first pick at this year’s draft lottery, and (I would assume) AJ Dybantsa.

As a fan who’s suffered basically ever since John Wall’s injuries derailed a few things circa 2019, it’s been a long time overdue for a little luck on our side!

As a recent fan of Baseball (I binged Ken Burn’s Baseball documentary series during COVID Lockdown, and that was what really (re-)introduced me to Baseball) this was a really fun read!

Now to watch the YouTube playlist with all these iconic moments!

So incredibly excited for my friend @randgetlin.bsky.social, founder of Park Stories, ahead of the release of a body of work years in the making!

I’ve been hearing about this, behind the scenes, since 2021-2022 and I’m so proud and stoked and excited for its release!

Wonderful night out for the official #NBAPlayoffs @trashtalkfr.bsky.social viewing party at Le Grand Rex (an iconic 1020s movie theater —one of the most beautiful and still one of the biggest in Europe today)

Cavs at Raptors - was dreadful until the end of Q3
then
Spurs at Blazers - great comeback

My second time being able to score tickets and love the experience with the other 2500 fans cheering all night long!
Special guests this year: Mickael Pietrus and Maxime Raynaud (one of the best rookies of the year and hopefully soon a French National Team player!)

Euroleague Documentary Premiere: Chasing Glory

4/23/26

Evening out for a Premiere of a Euroleague Documentary on Nigel Hayes-Davis, “Chasing Glory”.

Following NHD as his Fenerbahce team makes the playoffs against us last season, all the way to the Euroleague final and winning Final Four MVP!

Really insightful documentary on a player who caused us so much heartaches last season!

After the documentary, we had a panel discussion on the movie with the presence of Leo Cavalière, one of our Paris Basketball players, as well as two other former basketball players turned content creators.

We then enjoyed some lovely drinks and snacks in the private rooftop salon of the cinema that was hosting the event! :)

A vintage cinema entrance displays neon signs and posters for the film Chasing Glory. A dark theater room with a blue curtain displays the projection Euroleague & Friends above rows of empty brown seats. Five people are seated on stage with the Euroleague & Friends logo projected on a curtain behind them.

🇪🇸 Pretty gutted for my fellow countryman Antoine Griezmann whose team Atlético de Madrid lost the Copa del Rey final last night. His last opportunity before his transfer to MLS’s Orlando FC this summer 😢
In total Grizi has stayed almost a decade at Atleti 💔
