drat, can't remember the last time there was a suspension that long for a tackle. The Zakuani career-ender is the only one that comes to mind, which was 10 games.
The only other one that long I can think of for something during live-ball play was Ricardo Clarke kicking Carlos Ruiz directly in the small the back. IIRC that earned him eight games off.

tbh, I see that and think, "yeah, that looks like it could be the Revs' logo", which I guess is a good start. Still seems a bit :geno: though. All of this is moot though because I'm pretty sure they have to keep the crayon logo by law.

As for who the next team to rebrand will be:

Most Likely - San Jose (unless Kroenke suddenly remembers he owns the Rapids, then them)
Who I Wish Would - RSL (change the loving name already)
Comedy Option - Miami

I’ll say this: that potential Revs logo reminds me of the old Crew logo (not the construction workers logo).

Good morning!

This looks absolutely fine. The name stays the Revolution, too.

The crayon logo is like Fruitopia bottle label levels of dated. If it's gotta go, they could do way worse than this.

Its cool its a local company that apparently treats its employees really well but the fact they are so dumb they are calling their company (and now stadium) Lower DOT COM is almost unbelievable. Just rename your company to Lower you idiots.

They should just have it be Lower Stadium and have their be two levels of seats so people can say they're in the Lower Lower Stadium.

inter miami just keeps giving

quote:

Inter Miami striker Gonzalo Higuain has said he thought Major League Soccer would be easy enough for him to play with a "cigarette" in his mouth.

The Argentina forward, who has scored four goals in seven league games this season, said that he has been surprised by the competitiveness of MLS, comparing it to Italy's Serie A.

Speaking on Christian Vieri's Twitch channel Bobo TV, Higuain said: "I thought I would come here and play with a cigarette in my mouth and, instead, it is difficult.

"It is a tough league. I learned that it is similar to Italian football. In Spain and England it is easier to do well, while in Italy, if you do not know the league, you suffer."

Higuain joined Inter Miami from Juventus in 2020 after struggling to eight goals in 32 games for the Italian giants in his last season in Serie A.

The striker said that he decided to leave Juventus after he took advice from club legend Gianluigi Buffon.

"I couldn't find the right determination and serenity outside of football," Higuain added on why he left Serie A. "I had nothing more to give.

"A great friend of mine like Buffon told me: 'If you no longer feel that fire inside in training, if you no longer feel the determination to be at high levels, you have to go'.

"Football gave me a lot but it was time to say enough and find joy and fun and new football in a city that surprised me because it was wonderful."

Inter Miami, who are in 11th in the Eastern Conference, next face D.C. United in MLS on Sunday.

i hope miami just continues to be the retirement home for players done with europe forever while the rest of the league moves on

That tweet implied another another club was rebranding, since Chicago announced theirs a while ago.

But yes, better than their current one for sure.

this season alone has got to earn him a sniff at that #3 spot at the very least. missed the game yesterday but watched the highlights and Revs lose by 2 easy if anyone else is wearing the gloves. the guy has been on top of his game this year

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 they had to rebrand at all, they at least did a good job this time (unlike, say, Montreal, or Chicago/Columbus' first attempts).
