Mavinga is so bad man. We were looking like we could get outta there with a tie till he played that horrible back pass.

I want to calculate how many points he and Bond have cost us this season, but I can't bring myself to do it.

Matko Miljevic has been riding the pine for CF Montreal, so he went to play for the amateur Ligue Québécoise de Soccer Calcetto under a fake name. There he scored 6 goals 2 assists in three games.

Then Miljevic went to watch his unnamed buddy play, and when his buddy's team was losing 5-0 he spat on one of the opposing players then words were exchanged in spanish and Miljevic punched a player in the face. So the ref called the game and Miljevic is kicked out of the Ligue Québécoise de Soccer Calcetto.

What I find a bit more interesting is that the victim is referred to in the statement by the league repeatedly as elle meaning the person who got punched was a woman and she isn't hurt but is considering pressing an assault charge.





Oh and CF Montreal has no comment.

Welp

To be fair we beat them at the much more high profile much more viewed Rose Bowl game. That had their fan base incredibly mad for a few weeks. Good times has by all.

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes, look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.
If all three of the tournaments between LMX and MLS have to continue to exist they should at least not have CCL/Campeones teams play in Leagues Cup

That's just too repetitive.

MLS acknowledges it but says it excludes the shootout era. I've only really just started following this year because of City, so I don't know entirely what that means, but looking at old videos, it looked extremely wacky!

In MLS' infancy the rules were a bit different, partially to try to Americanize the sport. One thing was time being kept with countdown timers instead of a normal clock. The big one was that instead of a game tied at 90 minutes just ending with each team getting a point, there was instead the shootout where the winner of that would get the point and the loser would get nothing. Both of those things were dropped after the 1999 season. None of that means Chicago didn't actually win more games in regulation (with 2 games fewer to boot) though.

All of this sounds like I'm being really pedantic and mean to your team...which is completely true and 100% warranted because teams copying lovely generic names from a big European club deserve to be ridiculed :colbert:

In the words of our fearless head coach, the Galaxy have been "put out of our misery."

Honestly, there HAS been a lot of bad luck but, c'mon, did it ever really look like the team would do well this year? The best I can hope for is that we keep our good players.

San Diego's going to announce their identity on October 20th, according to reports. I'm guessing yellow will be one of the colors.
