I wonder why this is the case that this localities are spending more into DART compared to what they are getting in services. Why isn’t DART proving more services to equal the amount of money they are receiving. Do these locales have low ridership? Is there pop density around the DART stops?

I’m sure there are some Sounders fans who are saying this but the majority of Sounders fans I have seen are complaining about the Sounders themselves not figuring out a way to break down the defensive structure of Minnesota and then when getting a goal scoring chance not converting it.

I completely agree. It is so frustrating to hear arguments against this type of design. If for nothing else, if you get more people in a walkable city, then for those people that want to keep driving, there will be fewer cars on the road them. Win-win.

Do you know if there are any plans to improve upon the intersection design?

Also, I wish more cities in the US would institute concrete barriers for their bike lanes.

I remember those teams he coached, playing with that 4-4-2 with a diamond shaped midfield. I thought they were going to win the CCL over Monterrey in 2011.

There seems to be more of these large storms developing late in the hurricane season. It is so crazy to see how fast these storms intensify in such a short period of time.

foxintheboxfc.bsky.social @foxintheboxfc.bsky.social · 3d

Completely agree. The chances they did get they did not convert. This seems like a throw back to earlier in the year. With that being said, for a lot of the match they were moving the ball slow and needed to be more direct. This game was screaming for Gerogi to come in earlier.

Minnesota United vs Seattle Sounders (10/27/25) – Seattle dominated possession but struggled to break United’s compact defense. Missed chances, slow play, and late subs cost them, and penalties sealed a frustrating loss. Georgi should have been brought in earlier. Game 2 Sea needs a chg in tactics.

That’s really good news. I didn’t think he was going to be able to make it back until next season.

Too bad this game isn't at Solider Field. Hopefully something gets figured out with the Bears so this does not happen next year.

foxintheboxfc.bsky.social @foxintheboxfc.bsky.social · 10d

I think that will be a big loss for the Crew if he is not able to play in game 1. I would say even if he is not 100% could be issue especially against Red Bulls high press. They have not high pressed as much as in previous years but it is still a part of their game model.

foxintheboxfc.bsky.social @foxintheboxfc.bsky.social · 10d

I remember when he played to Atlanta United in MLS. He did great for them, one year he got 19 goals in 20 matches. It looks like he was a good striker for Celtic also.
