data-mm-id=”_8ird3pflt”>There's a new animated series on Netflix called Bread Barbershop. It's about a barbershop operated by a piece of bread. Haircuts are basically cake decorating as his main customers appear to be baked goods. The protagonist's name appears to be Bread Pitt. Seriously. Look. Bread. Pitt.Bread. Pitt. / Bread Barbershop is a Korean animation which has gained a large online following since its 2019 debut. It came to Europe this spring and just showed up on American Netflix in the last few days. If this sounds a little vague, that's because there is, like, nothing in English about the show. IMDB has no information beyond the title of the first episode and that there is apparently a character named Chip, who we can probably assume is a chip of some sort. I watched the first episode of Bread Barbershop yesterday with my small child who did not appreciate the Bread Pitt pun. The first episode opens with a baker pulling a tin of cupcakes from the oven. When he walks away, the cupcakes climb out, the plot goes forward and they end up being put on display at the end of the episode. So it's not like these are just baked goods existing in their own universe. Humans exist and eat them. All these cute little characters must die horrible deaths. The only explanation for their love of being decorated by Mr. Bread is that they are born believing that must ride eternal, shiny and chrome in Valhalla. Meanwhile, Mr. Bread and his employees never spoil and the baker just accepts the fact that his cakes are decorated by some unknown, unseen being. Anyway, here's a video of the recurring characters fighting COVID.Yeah. There are currently 39 episodes on Netflix. They're all around 10 minutes long. Each episode begins with a 9- second montage and ends with another two minutes of food dancing while credits roll. I cannot recommend this experience enough. Whether or not you have children, you really need to experience a full episode of this show.

Diego Maradona has questioned the motives behind Lionel Messi s decision to retire from international football and his subsequent U-turn.
Messi announced his intention to step down from Argentina duty in the immediate aftermath of the Copa America final defeat to Chile in June.
But following talks with new Argentina boss Edgardo Bauza, Messi has made himself available once again and is expected to feature in the meeting with Uruguay on September 1 and the trip to Venezuela five days later.
Bauza has called for an end to what he referred to as Messi-dependence , but Maradona has suggested the whole saga is a ruse to mask Argentina s recent failures at international level, with defeats in the 2014 World Cup final, the 2015 Copa America final and the title-match…

American businessman Stan Kroenke has increased his stake in Arsenal to just over 20 percent after purchasing 5,000 shares from fellow director Danny Fiszman, the Premier League club confirmed in an announcement to the London Stock Exchange here on Monday.
Board member Kroenke, whose purchase cost him some 42.5 million pounds (60.3 million dollars), with each share priced at 8,500 pounds, now has a 20.5 percent stake in Arsenal.
Fiszman s sale still leaves the diamond dealer with 16.1 percent of Arsenal s shares and he stressed he was not contemplating any further sale.

When Jose Mourinho arrived at Inter Milan amongst much pomp and fanfare in June last year he was set a definite target win the Champions League.
Inter were on a run of three straight titles, in no small part thanks to the match-fixing punishment that sent Juventus down to Serie B, and two of their best players into Inter s colours.
Back then, in the summer of 2006, Inter were known as the country s perennial underachievers and chokers.
But they romped to the 2007 title more by default as points penalties dealt out to AC Milan, Fiorentina and Lazio had robbed Inter of any meaningful challengers.
For a team that had gone 17 years without a title the goodwill afforded Mourinho s predecessor Roberto Mancini for landing that first scudetto in a generation did…
Spanish daily Marca understands that Manchester City are weighing up a January bid for Malaga goalkeeper Willy Caballero.
The Citizens boss Manuel Pellegrini obviously knows the player well from his time at La Rosaleda and he will attempt to lure him to Etihad.
Pellegrini wanted to take Caballero with him this summer, but the Argentine snubbed the move as he didn t want to play second fiddle to Joe Hart.
However, with the England number one no longer an automatic choice, the Malaga goalkeeper might be interested in a switch to Manchester.
Willy Caballero joined los Boquerones from Elche in January 2011 and has since largely impressed at La Rosaleda.
The 32-year-old made a total of 87 La Liga appearances, while also featuring in 11 Champions Leagu…
Departing Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho has been described as a scourge on Spanish football by rivals Barcelona s vice-president.
Carles Vilarrubi launched a scathing attack on the Portuguese after Madrid president Florentino Perez announced on Monday that he would be leaving by mutual consent, despite having three years left on his contract. I said this three years ago through other means and now that he is no longer coach I can repeat what I thought then, that Mourinho would be a scourge on Spanish football. Now he no longer is, Vilarrubi declared on Radio Catalunya.Mourinho worked at Barcelona under Bobby Robson and Louis van Gaal but after he left in 2000 his relationship with the club became strained, and his behaviour in clashes against them for Inter and Real Madrid did …
Zlatan Ibrahimovic was full of praise for Paul Pogba s performance for France in Sunday s World Cup final.
Midfielder Pogba scored a fine second-half goal as Les Bleus defeated Croatia 4-2 in Moscow to clinch their second title.
And after a season in which Pogba s displays for Manchester United were often scrutinised, Ibrahimovic was quick to highlight his former Old Trafford team-mate s display.

Starting with Saturday s guests, putting in what was another dominant display and picking up a 2-0 win over Sunderland last weekend, Portsmouth have continued on what has been a stellar purple patch. Reclaiming their spot in the play-offs and the mood around Fratton Park at a season-high, the South Coast outfit find themselves in the midst of an eight-match winning run across all competitions, a run that stems back to a 1-1 draw with Gillingham on New Year s Day. Now sat within touching distance of the automatic spots, Kenny Jackett s men also have a growing reputation for their form in the final third. Bagging at least a pair of goals in seven of their last eight victories, the one-time Millwall boss will be most impressed by his side s continued showings on the road. Portsmouth have w…
Looking at this weekend s results a score stood out for me. Its not the fact that Liverpool or Chelsea were beaten or the fact that Manchester United went to the top of the league. It was Stokes 2-1 victory over West Ham at the Britannia Stadium.
Fortress Britannia
It wasn t even the fact that Stoke beat West Ham. The result just illustrated how important home games are to clubs like Stoke. Since their promotion to the English top flight the Britannia Stadium has become a fortress that even the top teams hate to visit.
Their fans have provided such a intimidating atmosphere at the ground that opponents find it hard to cope. Stoke are with respect not the greatest team in the league but somehow at the Britannia they are suddenly helped by their twelfth man. And w…
