I like that the 24 matches outside one’s division allows for a way more balanced schedule. That’s been a longtime coming. The calendar switch? Feels like a ‘grass is always greener’ moment.

Product on the field doesn’t improve if teams don’t get/keep butts in seats. Will fans wait it out in the cold and wet weather while teams (optimistically) improve their rosters?

Two month break in the middle of a season feels like a huge chasm for the nation’s attention span to fall into and die.

I think that ‘mixed’ tilts pretty negative. If you’re talking about change, then you have to lean the ‘3’ votes towards the negative side.

I do not like the seasonal changes.
I DO like the idea of 5 divisions and that the 24 other games guarantees you play all the other teams at least once a year. The MLS schedule had gotten way too unbalanced.

We currently only have McGraw and his bad back as a 3rd CB.
Unless we count T2 guys, we only have 2 FBs t(hat can’t defend).
Using Zup’s $ to help rebuild defensive depth is pretty crucial this offseason.
Now, spending big$ on Zimmerman is a different Q,

Right or wrong, that’s pretty much Fetterman’s stance.

That opening in Toronto with Sean Johnson not coming back sounds like a dream job for him and his family. 🤞

If there wasn’t a younger/cheaper player (fairly) in-form on our roster, I’d be just fine with him as our starter next year. With Pants (and Muse/Sulte in the pipe), Max is a luxury backup, and kinda unfair not to let him find a starting job somewhere else.

Unless it’s all part of their master plan. 🙄

San Diego just played a day later than all the others. Put it earlier on Monday, west coast people see it/have to try and figure out getting to stadium by 4:30-5:30. Local market should trump, right?
*Note this is partly a west coaster grouching about east coast bias. :)

We went to the finals twice in those six. Phil’s gotta win it all next year just to stay on pace.
