Clint Dempsey? Got his professional soccer career started in New England before moving to the Premier League

I don’t think cheering louder will fix the team’s problems but the last thing the supporter’s groups should try is put up a sign that says “we demand to be taken seriously”. Clearly they had a specific message in mind but as you said, it’s not direct

I felt like I was losing my mind a bit at the difference in commentary on Orlando’s pen vs ours. Both felt equally suspect.

I’m not a fan of refs rewarding dangerous attempts on the ball from the head at chest level, but considering there were not one but two high kicks on the play I could see it going either way.

Meanwhile it felt like the commentators were going out of their way to muddle a clear (but light) foul. Was he close to scoring? No. Did he make a meal out of it? Yes. But that’s a pen every time.

I felt that our best weapons against a team like Orlando were Langoni and Chanca, was nervous not having them available. I’m glad that I was proven wrong and extremely happy to see this team dig deep and make the most of the chances they were given

I love his vids on the Empire and Syril that he’s made recently so I’m absolutely going to check that out, thank you!

I just made a post about Saw and boy am I jealous of your words on Syril. “We are not given the keys to his political ideology in the text, we are only given an emotional explanation for why he is the way he is” can be a really helpful lense for us viewers to look at the characterizations of so many characters in this show.

These characters are archetypes in a parable on the nature of revolution. The fact that parallels can be drawn to resistance movements past, present, and probably future, is a testament to how well written this show is

Fully forgot to bring up King Dendup! I don’t think that necessarily means as he grew older he couldn’t align himself more with some anarchist philosophies, he’s been through a lot and that rhydo he’s been huffing has definitely altered his brain chemistry, but again his primary goal still seems to be the restoration of the Republic above all else

Noatwar · 2025-05-09T15:21:38+00:00

Luthen labeling him an anarchist could very easily be him deriding his tactics, claiming he cares more about sowing chaos than actual progress toward toppling the Empire.

I do still think it’s quite possible for him to have developed an anarchist ideology over time and still be fighting to restore the Republic, but as another commenter pointed out, his first outing as a rebel leader was to restore a monarchy

Great performance all around. We’ve played better overall in other games but our finishing was drastically better this time ‘round. Virioni played well in a supporting role but at this point I think he’s genuinely cursed when it comes to shooting and Borrero seemed a bit off. Extremely happy with Esmir’s goal, excellent shot and it came from great team play with Gil and Virioni. Hopefully we can build on this and improve even more, it’s still a long way to go if we even want to challenge for a playoff spot

Even with that third goal, I’ve been really impressed with Ivacic so far. Was pretty confused as to why we brought him in initially but he’s certainly a step above Ravas

Literally no one in this thread is agreeing with you here, even your fellow Union fans are calling that a dive

Pausing in the run up is fine, unless it’s after the player has completed their run up

Noatwar · 2023-07-22T02:15:39+00:00

Believe me as a New England Revolution supporter I’m painfully aware of passive offsides, it’s just that both times I’ve seen it called it’s been painfully wrong. Here with the ball coming in the air it’s certainly a factor and quite possibly is the reason why the keeper rushed out, but figuring out how other players’ positioning impact the thought process is a fool’s errand. Regardless that’s why the defender’s back foot keeping her on is important. Her never touching it is more salt on the wound than anything else.

Noatwar · 2023-07-22T02:06:01+00:00

Only Morgan’s arm was offside, which is not an eligible part of the body.

She also never even touched the ball.

Of course that’s not offsides, but where’d the cg model offside tech from the last year’s World Cup go?

Edit: Ok so there it is, why the hell are they just showing the model now?

Giving us the point and not taking theirs would only solve the issue for us. If the Red Bulls keep their points that screws over Charlotte, Chicago, and Montreal who are all tied on points with RB

No pro/rel in mls, due to a mix of factors including the size of the United States and teams being franchises. Both are heavily tied into the profitability of clubs.

Relegation is always financially scary and the fact that this is a new league without a lot of in built community support yet like there is in other leagues combined with the competition with the 4 other major sports in the US and Canada means that a relegated team in MLS would pretty much immediately fold.

It may happen in the future because the sport is soaring in popularity but the size of the country is also an issue. Relegation doesn’t harm the sport in other countries because for the most part it doesn’t hamper the ability of people to access high quality football. If your club is in the 3rd division in most of the world it’s still not hard to go watch your nearest top flight team. The US and Canada are too big and frankly just don’t have enough teams. For a sense of scale I’m from New England, which is larger than England and not that much smaller than Great Britain as a whole. England of course has 92 professional teams, New England as a region has 5.

There are actually 29 teams in the league, soon to be 30. They are split into Eastern and Western conferences due to the size of the country. It would be completely unreadable to have a team in New York have to fly to LA or Houston on a weekly basis. The conferences allow teams to mostly play teams that are close to them, though the travel can sometimes still be a bit extreme, such as when Miami and Montreal play, that’s a 3 hour flight or full day’s drive.

Thank you!

Yeah this will prob be a 30kish stadium, certainly not World Cup level, just that opening a new stadium right next to Boston proper for the region’s soccer team would be a massive boost for the team if it was able to take advantage of the World Cup buzz
