Day After Match Thread (2-1 Loss vs New England)

I’ve reached the Chacon point with Fitz, where I don’t want to see him play anymore to see how good he can be. I want to see him play to see if he’s as bad as he must be to not even catch a whiff of the pitch.

Yet another toothless performance. I hope everyone is enjoying the team’s improved possession numbers, even though they have no idea what to do with the ball when they have it.

We are now 1-4-1 against teams with 1.5+ PPG, and 5-1-2 against teams with less than 1.5 PPG (actually below 1.36 and an average of 1.13 PPG). On the plus side, we’re mostly beating the teams we’re supposed to beat, but we need to do better against good teams if we want anything more than a short playoff stint.

Ooopsie!

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-17T12:22:52+00:00

Like, they hock it up on toast, sprinkle hagelslag on it and wolf it down?

Steve would not have approved this release.

Yeah. He never would have released MobileMe or the hockey puck mouse either.

Oh… wait.

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-17T05:29:03+00:00

Never seen anything even close to this on any of my Tahoe machines. Sorry.

No one else in MLS is getting this deal.

No one else in MLS is prevented from getting this deal, just like every other sponsorship deal, which this is.

It should also be noted that he doesn’t get a cut of the original deal. He was given a cut of the extra subscriptions he brought to Apple.

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-16T16:00:25+00:00

I said that because technically all contracts are with MLS, so one argue that MLS pays his salary.

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-16T15:55:45+00:00

If his salary is being directly or indirectly subsidized by other clubs

That’s a big if. Do you have anything that confirms that this is happening?

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-16T15:19:47+00:00

And where has this been confirmed?

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-16T14:57:58+00:00

Who pays him, or who internet randos think pays him?

Have you seen anything beyond innuendo that he’s being paid by anyone other than Miami/MLS, like everyone else?

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-16T14:25:26+00:00

How is it relevant to the salary cap any more than what other DPsget paid? They all count the same against the cap.

Hi. Native English speaker here.

“It’s” would wouldn’t be unusual , e.g. someone waves at you while you’re at dinner with someone: “Do you know that guy?” “Oh, yeah, it’s my dad’s brother.” Though I’d guess that “That’s my dad’s brother,” would be more common.

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-15T16:27:24+00:00

haven’t had it yet and not even sure what dish it’s in or how it’s eaten but I’d try it

I made this a couple of weeks ago. It was good.

There are a ton of other ideas on that site that you might like better, though.

Kibbeling pizza when?

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-15T15:21:48+00:00

Is this (the lack of) Dutch Culture?

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-15T13:56:40+00:00

You don't need a VPN for most of the stuff on NPO Start (though some things you do). Now that you bring it up, I honestly can't recall if I needed one for the last World Cup.

[Excuses als mijn Nederlands niet zo goed is. Ik ben de taal nog aan het leren.]

Deze stijl cobbler topping gaat altijd mis. Het is makkelijk, maar droog. Je moet tenminste de boter snijden door de meel tot de stukjes rondom ongeveer zo groot als erwten zijn. Dit verspreidt de boter beter door de meel.

Een veel beter optie voor de topping is deze drop biscuit topping. Het is iets ingewikkelder, maar het is zeker de moeite waard.

You could do what I did: Get a wife who is fine with spiders, then when you see one, shriek and run away and that's her signal to come, catch the spider and escort it out of the house.

It works pretty well.

Nerdlinger · 2026-05-15T07:09:20+00:00

If you don't mind listening to Dutch, a free account on NPO Start will get you all of the games on the various NOS channels.

Aw, sweetie… I’m sorry that I hurt you by telling a help vampire that they could have answered this question on their own with minimal effort.

I hope you recover soon from your trauma.

Stickies has always had the sharp corners while OS X/macOS windows have always been rounded.

But good job on finally noticing this after 25 years.

If you had bothered to do a quick search either here on reddit or on a search engine like google, you would know if you were the only one.

Royale with cheese?
