They say that in the right kind of light, you can still see the USMNT standing and watching as the ball bounces around inside their box

MLS loves to say that they are trying to grow American soccer. That the league is about lifting up the sport.

The sport needs everyone - players, coaches, referees, fans and media.

You are not growing American soccer when you replace the media with AI. You're actively harming the sport.

As someone whose time freelancing for MLSsoccer was a vital step in my career progression, and someone who generally gleans insight from the observations of others:

This sucks so hard.

MLS is using generative AI to write match recaps. Writers used to get paid freelance rates to do that. Hssssss.

Questionable strike zone and horrible call on that bunt aside, stranding all those runners in extra innings is not the way to get it done in an elimination game.

Ugh. Done watching baseball until April.

"What do you mean they don't start serving alcohol again in extra innings?"

I was trying to figure out why Trinity was shooting directly at the GK so much then that happened.

I have too many things on my plate to be at Audi today but another meltdown game comes as no surprise.

It's a season from hell, people want it to be done, and Charlotte is going to be merciless.

Just wait until you actually get to Koln for a match. Spent two weeks there during Germany 06 and I did not want to leave.

Ludacris playing a pregame concert at *9:45 am* in Chapel Hill this weekend right before UNC gets its face ripped off by Clemson might be my favorite part of the Belichick Effect so far. Surreal stuff.

FIFA chasing those famously passionate Super Bowl crowds...

2026 World Cup ticket prices are (much) higher than:

🏆 all previous World Cups
🥇 all Olympics
🔮 projections in the 🇺🇸🇨🇦🇲🇽 bid
⚽️ Euros, Champions League & more

Only real comparison: the NFL and Super Bowls.

A piece placing WC prices in context:

Booming World Cup ticket prices outstrip everything except the Super Bowl

The 2026 World Cup final could be the single most lucrative match in soccer history.

The #F1 Channel is showing the 2017 Singapore GP. Carnage from the very start, only 12 drivers out out of 20 finished. Could bode well for an interesting race this weekend.
