MLS: Lionel Messi makes a fiery comeback with Inter Miami
Lionel Messi Injured just a few days ago, Lionel Messi returned to action last night for his club Inter Miami in MLS. The Argentinian star came back as both a scorer and provider against LA Galaxy. After a two-week break, Lionel Messi marked his return to MLS last night. Coming on in the second half against LA Galaxy, the reigning World Champion immediately silenced any doubts about his injury by resuming his role as the conductor of Miami's play. The result: a 3-1 victory for Inter Miami. In the 84th minute, Messi unleashed a powerful strike from outside the box, catching the entire California defense off guard to restore his team's lead. But the show wasn't over yet: just minutes later, the former Barcelona ace delivered an inspired backheel assist, setting up Luis Suárez for the third goal in the 89th minute.

"It Is A Hard And Expensive Life That Only A Few Can Truly Handle": 13 Things People Only Romanticize Because They've Never Actually Done Them, And I Totally Understand Where They're Coming From
While a certain thing might look glamorous from the outside, it can be a lot of work to do when you're actually in the middle of it. So when we asked the BuzzFeed Community: "What's something people only romanticize because they've never actually done it?" so many people shared their thoughts below. 1."Motherhood! It is a gift I wouldn't trade for the world, but holy shit, no one tells you how all-consuming it is. The anxiety, guilt, exhaustion, and feeling like you lost yourself. I felt bitter for some time that no one told me the ugly parts until I was already in it." —Anonymous, 30, Atlanta Related: 2."Farming. Both Boomers (in the '70s) and Millennials (more recently) seem to have a group of folks who romanticized farming and 'getting back to nature.' Reality is that farming is often back-breaking work from before dawn (not at dawn or after dawn) until dark. The equipment is very expensive, requiring you to buy on credit or lease it, creating never-ending debt, but if you don't do it, you will fall behind and not sell enough. The market for your products can tank, leaving you in even more debt, or a harvest can fail. You have to hire help or have a large enough family who can pitch in. There are a number of zoning rules and health codes that can be hard to meet on an older farm, but newer farms cost too much. No sick days allowed (livestock require care every single day), and vacations are rare (if you can afford them). It is a hard and expensive life that only a few can truly handle." —adrianw440bbeae3 3."Living in a small or smaller town. I can say from personal experience that while the slower pace is nice in comparison to bigger cities, there's not a lot of privacy either. Not to mention driving an hour out of town to get any real errands or shopping done." —Anonymous 4."The most stressed out I ever was at my grocery store job was when I was in management. To be fair, part of that time was during the start of the pandemic, which sucked for most people. But asking for a demotion was the best thing I did for my mental health." —Betherick85 5."Marriage. There is so much hype around marriage, especially for women, beginning when we're little girls. Finding Mr. Right, anticipating the proposal, the engagement, the shower, the parties and festivities leading up to the actual wedding day. Then reality sinks in: finances, kids, in-laws, balancing life and careers… the list goes on. I believe marriage is portrayed in a much more romanticized way than it actually is in reality. And now, with everyone living their lives on social media, the cycle continues. They don't show the hard work, compromise, and maintenance involved, and often, it isn't pretty." —Anonymous, 54, Los Angeles Related: 6."Buying land and putting your own house on it. The whole process to build the house was so awful that I almost didn't want the place by the time it was done." —Anonymous 7."Working in a chocolate shop! It's a nightmare and not at all romantic — and Valentine's Day is the worst! Non-stop chaos from open to close and largely because of chocolate-covered strawberries! The shop gets filthy. There are always a few employees hogging the register, and no one else gets a chance. Employees are judged by their sales, and if they don't sell enough, they could lose their jobs. Management doesn't do a thing about the register hogs. Yeah, very romantic." —Anonymous Related: 8."Moving to Japan. It is not all anime, technology, and 7-Eleven. It is working long hours for low pay and is quite isolating. I managed to get settled, but I know many who fall into depression or leave the country quite quickly. Amazing place for a holiday, but don't expect the same experience if you choose to live here." —Anonymous, 32, Japan 9."Owning a house. It sounds awesome; it's yours. Until you realize all the costs are also yours, and it's actually not yours but the bank's, and you have to pay and arrange everything. New heater, your problem. Leaking roof, you pay. And if you don't pay for repairs, the bank can take the house from you for neglect because it's still theirs." —dietarycharger 10."Yes, business travel. It seems cool and it is for a bit, but when you do it once a month or more, it's absolutely exhausting, and dealing with what feels like never-ending jet lag sucks." —bmoney 11."Being a chef. Romantics would have you believe it's a world of cooking, great food, and top restaurants. Uh no. It's hot, demanding, and exhausting work under people who sometimes have no business being in charge of toilet paper, let alone a restaurant. It's hours and hours on your feet, working all hours, dealing with the public, and a LOT of stress." —Anonymous, 53, Virginia Related: 12."As someone who's been diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and severe anxiety, I was to open-hand smack people when they romanticize depression or claim to be depressed when they're just bummed out. Depression is no joke; not feeling excited, inspired, or happy about anything truly sucks. Flat affect sucks." —missmissymaria143 13."Meeting your idol. Thinking they would be just like they are on film and talk shows. Turns out, your idols aren't anything like what you thought they were, and that's hard to take when you used to have such affection for them." —babycapricorn129 What's a thing people only romanticize because they've never actually done it?

How Royals' John Rave prepared for stand-in role against White Sox on Saturday
Kansas City Royals outfielder John Rave was quick to grab his ball cap and glove from the dugout on Saturday night. His number was called. In the second inning, Rave raced to left field as a defensive replacement against the Chicago White Sox. He entered the game due to first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino exiting with a heat-related illness. 'I was told, 'Hey, if he can't go the rest of the at-bat, it's gonna be you,'' Rave said. 'So I started moving around again and started moving in the cage. Then, he finished the at-bat and I went out on defense. I came back in and took more swings in the cage and got ready pretty quickly.' Pasquantino was unable to continue after his first at-bat. This shifted Nick Loftin — who started in left field — to first base while Rave was next in line to help the team. Rave did just that. He finished 2-for-3 and hit a solo home run in the Royals' 6-2 victory at Kauffman Stadium. 'It's not always going to work out like that,' Rave said postgame. 'But yeah, just putting in the right work and try to be prepared as possible for when you get your at-bats and make them count.' Rave belted his fourth career homer off White Sox starter Sean Burke in the third inning. He saw two curveballs before connecting on a 93.9 mph fastball. It was his first home run at Kauffman Stadium. He has hit safely in his last five games with an at-bat. 'Stayed on the heater and got one down in the zone and was able to drop the barrel to it,' Rave said. 'And put a good swing on it.' This season, Rave has carved out a bench role with the Royals. He demonstrated his versatility by homering early, reaching on a sacrifice bunt and displaying smart baserunning by scoring from first base on a double. The Royals needed it Saturday. KC (62-61) climbed one game above .500 for the first time since June 10. 'He was ready,' Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. 'I mean, as soon as he saw us go out there, I knew he was ready to go. … He wants to get in there every opportunity he can.' Pasquantino agreed. He felt Rave did a great job filling in and helping the team secure a victory. 'I thought, obviously, the first at-bat was phenomenal and then laying down the bunt and scoring from first on the double, that's huge,' Pasquantino said. 'So him being ready like that, that to me shows the character of him, this team and everything. Just being ready to go like that is huge for us.' Rave has appeared in 56 games this season. He made his MLB debut on May 26 against the Cincinnati Reds and now has added another hallmark moment during his rookie campaign. 'All of it happened kind of fast, but I try to show up to the park every day and prepare the same way, whether I'm in there or not,' Rave said. 'I had taken swings today and been moving around a little bit. So it usually doesn't happen that early in the game. Yeah, I was ready to go.'
