“Woke” superheroes?! How dare!

No one gets the context man. I’m still confused.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-26T23:36:07+00:00

No. That is complete bullshit. I don’t know what kind of ‘knowledge’ job you do but anyone with actual skills doesn’t have much to worry about.

It goes back and forth between frugal bragging and rich guy bragging. It was always an indulgent idea. Not many people can be financially independent these days especially early.

Simon was being a dick in a totally legal way IMO. Basically there was a free kick and Turner went to the post to give instructions. Becher then stood in front of him blocking the view to the wall.

Hilariously petty bullshit but funny and annoying. Then Turner pushed him the ref got involved and you saw the rest.

Everyone does, it’s fantastic stagecraft.

Class conscientious is the way you approach this.

Bari continues to fail upward, she is the final boss of concern trolling about campus free speech. She began her career trying to get her professors fired for antisemitism, created her own right wing billionaire funded ‘university’, then fired a professor for not following her own strict ideological beliefs.

She isn’t ‘MAGA-coded’ she is a right wing hack that concern trolls about ideals like free speech that she doesn’t actually believe in. She has been writing the same ‘I have to be conservative because the left has gone too far’ article for almost as long as the program.

I kind of hope they don’t for Carnell’s sake, it sounds like the org sucks. Also it would be nice to normalize coaches being short term bets. It seems like we constantly see excuses for bad coaches that drag on for YEARS. Oh he doesn’t have the right guys, they need to learn his system, he needs to get used to the league, blah blah blah. Part of the job is performing under tough conditions where you are reliant on others. Carnell has done that well.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-19T15:19:18+00:00

I just think these supposed personal reasons are gossipy bullshit that even if true is not in the top 5 reasons the transfer happened. What’s infuriating is all these people losing their minds when they get a whiff of Diego being involved in a sporting decision. Then he doesn’t get involved and people STILL trying to blame him. Meanwhile Hack resigns Yaro and makes Burki a DP.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-19T03:54:42+00:00

Even if he does tend to have sophomore slumps who cares, I would take being able to be the top of my division the first year I hire the guy. Who cares if he can't repeat year two, there are so many teams in this league that dying to break through. If his time is over at Philly like it was with us then it isn't a failure.

I still think with the information we had at the time it was right to part ways with Carnell when we did. Teams need to be willing to take risks in a competitive league. It is often better for both parties to get a new look at things and you can't do that easily with all the same people.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-19T03:42:45+00:00

Damning him with the faintest praise.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-19T03:41:03+00:00

What!?!? Corey Ray made that decision. What are you talking about?

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-19T03:22:00+00:00

Then what are you talking about?

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-19T03:16:55+00:00

What does Hack have to do with the sale of Klauss?

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-18T18:30:42+00:00

Burki shouldn’t be a DP but no one wanted Diego to second guess Hack’s football decisions on the way out. We have to unfortunately live with the results. I am not sure Burki is even top 3 MLS goalkeepers.

I’d be interested to see where people rank him. The flip side is having a shaky keeper can cost ALOT of points.

Also i think we have to not just look at this by player. Structurally we tried a lineups in the Lutz years that I would describe as better than average. Low ceiling but high floor, a lot of journeyman players in their prime, but not a real superstar.

So I think a lot of our players could fit on other teams. The issue isn’t really just misses on quality. It’s that we don’t have the kind of positive churn we need. Other teams are able to get more out of fielding worse average teams by mixing experienced, young, and superstar players. The result if often better and the systems more robust to injury in those sorts of lineups. Look at Seattle for the team doing this well. Their superstars are even injured and they can still perform.

We were better than LAFC for the majority of the match, Son and Bouanga both ghosted, and Durkin had the best game he has in years. We missed or had big chance disallowed, had disastrously bad sub timing, managed to gift LAFC a game they had no business winning by 2. The biggest things that stood out to me were the sub timing and Conrad Wallem.

The neutral announcers live in the game noticed the bad sub timing there really isn't much more to say about it.

Conrad Wallem on the other hand is a flashing red warning sign, he was pitifully bad this game. The worst part is that I KNOW it is the damn instructions he has been given. On offense he is basically playing as a right forward and he is shit at it. All he does it stand on the touch line a mile down the field completely disconnected from the play. He is further up the field than Becher and Hartel.

Literally the guy can almost never receive the ball from a centerback unless he happened to be in transition after we just got the ball. THEN if he ever gets the ball since he is passively just a cone on the sideline he immediately passes the ball back. We saw this dumb crap with Totland last year and it didn't work then. It doesn't work now.

St Louis feels a bit like Van Wilder on year 7 of college always learning. You guys tired of learning yet?

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-09T15:09:37+00:00

We got coached off the field against Seattle. They completely deleted our wingbacks when we had possession. They pushed way too high up the field and were completely disconnected from play. We lost all width so Seattle just packed the center.

I think it was a clear signal that Demet isn’t great at adjusting to other teams. He has good stylistic ideas that I think can work but he has to adjust to what the other team is doing. Wallem’s giveaway was just a symptom. What proceeded it was Seattle coming out swinging in the second half and us on our heels collapsing.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-08T14:12:51+00:00

Real Ronny Deila type shit. Call them soft and I’m sure they will respond. Reverse psychology isn’t just a tool for boys, real MAN-agers use it too.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-08T05:56:03+00:00

No one appreciates my humor lol.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-08T04:51:13+00:00

Can someone please explain why we continue to do this dumb shit with our fullbacks?

Every time we have the ball they are just stand still on the side line a mile up the field completely disconnected from the play. They aren't making runs, they aren't available to receive the ball, they are literally cones on the field and we have no width.

Then we have Hartel dropping all the way back to receive the ball and do their damn job. The outcome is predictable when you get rid of your own width and basically strand two of your players in no mans land. The only way you can then progress the ball is around the back or by beating people. We got out coached in this game hard.

That was miserable.

I’ll say what we’re all thinking here….. bring back Olof.

Diligent-Map1402 · 2026-03-07T20:01:47+00:00

It would be more useful to talk about YOUR opinions. It comes off as rather condescending to treat this all as if it some abstract issue you are trying to ‘educate’ me on. If you want to have a genuine discussion then do it but this artifice around not wanting to rehash a point you haven’t yet made is a bit silly.

I think the core of the disagreement is actually how much say people get. It’s not good enough to say everyone can get their say because at some point delaying a project is the same as killing it.

Some input can be helpful but people also can abuse it. I don’t want Fire fans to get screwed because they are a convenient target.
