ben olsen acts like a whining cry baby at every opportunity so i'm glad, op, that he is getting told to gently caress off for something minor.

Considering Chad Ashton is a glorified youth league coach on his best day, it's basically a wash in terms of results and an absolute hilarious indictment of league priorities in practice Maybe he can stand in the boycott section on Saturday

Gigi Galli posted:It's always been badly designed but maybe green for Earth day? You are correct. I totally forgot there was an Earth Day. I remember it being big back in the 90s, but then it just went away. In Dan Gargan news, he has resurfaced after being cut by LA in the broadcast booth. He's doing color for the Galaxy II game tonight and studio work for LA's game on Saturday.

Well sure, one does not simply release the Gargan!  Seriously, I hope that works out for him, dude was never that good but worked his rear end off for every opportunity he could get.

There's a lot of really bad teams - Jersey's early implosion being my favorite story - but can we talk about Colorado? Something is working up there. They were a solid team to start, and then they got Jermaine Jones. MacMath being replaced by Howard soon might make them the actual deadliest force in the West. Pablo may have been right. Line up in pure defense and wait for openings. They're second in the league. That's nuts for a team that was pure dogshit last year.

They're getting 1-0 and 2-1 wins off of relatively bullshit goals that teams later in the year would never allow. I think they're going to regress heavily towards the middle/end of the season, but make the playoffs. Like Dallas does every year.

No matter how you feel about the Rapids, that's a loving hell of an improvement after two years of...whatever the gently caress that was.

A few people figured Pablo had to get a minimum of 12 points by next Saturday's match with RSL to be safe. A few more, me included, wanted firings after that offseason (bedoya not the primary transfer target yeah right). I don't think anyone expected this though. After the last two seasons of pure crap I'm not sure if any of us know quite how to react either.

I suppose that the born-raised-and-living-in-Detroit billionaire and the currently-owns-another-Detroit-sports-team billionaire might possibly have some attachment to Detroit, but they have the money to run a team and build a stadium, and Detroit has a ton of people who currently don't have a pro soccer team, so the suits in league HQ probably had their eyes light up just like when the Rams move was finalised. On the bright side they can probably buy the land for a downtown stadium out of pocket change, as opposed to...how's Austin's search to replace the Aztex' flooded-out park going, anyway? edit: vvvv oh yeah I forgot about the Windsor/SW Ontario commuting types, this gets better and better.

The Aztex GM (the only guy getting paid by the owners right now) said about two months ago that our most likely short-term solution is at Nixon Lane, near the prison. A 10,000 seat stadium is being constructed there, and would probably serve us for 4-5 years until something bigger and more centrally located is built. It's not a football stadium! It's a rugby stadium.

does anyone know the td50 that correlates to lead levels in drinking water to rates of autism? i'm starting to get on board with expansion into detroit if that means more weird and embarrassing fans that spend their hard earned dollars on bedsheets for them to paint some sick rear end tifos it might also mean that i get to read more home spun articles posted on https://www.klinsmann/raus/mlssoccer.net regarding a mash up of dc united's starting xi and star wars for may 4th. i'll hang up and listen for your opinions.

i used to like the idea of generic names because it gave the fans the opportunity to organically choose their own nickname, but so far that's led to really great things like "TFC" and "shirt color" and "NYCFC" so gently caress it, i hope they pick an animal with claws. detroit mountain lions.
