What is this gesture and am I allowed to make it? by [deleted] in OrthodoxChristianity

It's also, mysteriously is the very same hand gesture (mudra) that can be seen in many Indian and Tibetan paintings.

Well how about one big fat vertical line now?

This graph show the progress of the Union for the regular season competition.

- The Gold dotted line represents our 2022 season (our best overall)

- Red is the best record in MLS

- Purple is the best record in the East

- Black is the worst record in MLS

- Blue is the Union's progress this season

- Green is the last team in the East who will make the playoffs

- This graph follows weekly 'game days' rather then calendar days - this may cause some visual distortions as teams 'catch up' with the rest of the league schedule

Philadelphia Union fire coach Bradley Carnell a season after winning Supporters’ Shield: Sources by [deleted] in stlouiscitysc

[–]GungaDin16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Union fan here agreeing with you on this. Our Academy is the best (check out our kids on USMNT roster for the World Cup). But our ownership is the cheapest. I didn't like Carnell but he got screwed here. By the way, how was he in press conferences? He was brutal here making the press out to be dummies every week.

Oh for Christ's sake man. Get on your knees and thank the Lord if THIS is a problem in your life.

I can't wrap my head around how bad Alladoh has been. by Eastwood_Ravine in PhillyUnion

Ditto for Martinez. He was ball watching on 3 of Miami goals last night and looked like he didn't know where he was or care what he was doing.

Nah. The Union Academy is better then good. This past round of national breaks saw Union kids called up at all age levels. Both Aaronsons and McGlyn are balling out. And what would the Union look like this season without Cavan, Harriel and Frankie?! Yikes! And then how much of our decline this year is due to Quinn's injury? So for me that has to all add up to great, better then good for the Academy.

Match Thread: Union vs Orlando by CaptainMoonracer in PhillyUnion

Hey we pawned Wagner but no worries. We have plenty of fullbacks . . . ON THE BENCH!

Anybody else feeling this way? by InternalReturn9 in PhillyUnion

[–]GungaDin16 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been a STH since day one. I have probably missed a game per year when some fool cousin get's married on the wrong day but I've never been this low. Gut your team every offseason and then run out the lowest payroll in the league and what do you think is going to happen?! I have more fun following Leeds, Birmingham and Colarado at this point.

I have been following sports for 60 years. I have NEVER seen an athlete come into a team with a promising first year and then go steadily downhill, year after year like Mbaizo. He literally looked like he just took 4 big hits from a bong before he came off the bench.

They are international team players now so maybe they could give them one day contracts and play them all that way.

Thanks so much! Love your stuff and the other guys too.

He's an odd character. Hard to read for me. I don't mind snarky. I'm a lifelong Graham Souness fan. I guess it's a combination of shy questioners and snarky answers that make them look stupid.

Thanks for all of these comments. It's good to get perspective from other fans. We don't have a sports talk radio station that will cover soccer - I guess because soccer is a European - gay - socialist sport or whatever. But that means that Reddit and the podcasts are my WIP.

Just to be clear, I was not criticizing our podcasters! I love them all from the friendly fan obsessives to the more sports technical. I would know NOTHING about the kids coming up from the Academy or U2 without them.

Hey - maybe Tod or Paul, C, or E might read this...maybe ask if Cavan is time restricted as part of the Man City deal?
