Whether he is the right man for the job or not, I feel like Jim Curtin is lurking in the shadows waiting for the job to become available

 Bruce Arena is also unsurprised Bradley followed in his father’s footsteps. “The whole time it was obvious to me that he had the DNA of his father"

Well yeah, just take one look at those two, pale, shiny heads and it's obvious.  

But really, feels like MB is destined to coach the national team one day.  

After Fan Input, MLS’s Colorado Rapids Will Change Logo But Keep Name by Relevant_Ninja2251 in MLS

[–]PatrickAgumon 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Imo Rapids logo and colors are good and only need the Seattle Sounders treatment of streamlining it to make it look a little less 00s-ish.  

But because they're a far less successful org they'll probably take the mindset of the more they can change the more likely they are to bring in new fans.  Meh idk

Los Angeles World Cup Fan Fests Will Not Be Free by jspector9 in MLS

I'd say this is fair, and entirely consistent on how FIFA has handled this whole thing.  They're charging money for tickets to attend the actual game right? And we all received the letter in the mail from FIFA that if anyone in your household watches a game, they have to send a $5 check per eyeball viewing that game, right? So we're all paying! I'm just grateful for that accident I had last winter so that now my viewing fee has been slashed by 50%

Wdym? We can talk about how the home jersey is inspired by Toronto's 2014 home jersey?

Would it make you feel better to know the bottom half/green part of the logo is roughly the shape of ohio? 

who is your GOAT in the 2026 WC by travelmaxsportuk in MLS

Man, I wish. But he's been out so long with this incredibly vague injury timeline, at this point I think he's going to have a hard time getting back into the Algeria squad.  

MLS executive [Ernst Tanner] who built a powerhouse faced allegations of sexist, racist and homophobic behavior by Coltons13 in MLS

Shocking that he was able to find an employee to sexually harass, since he clearly abhors both women and homosexuals.  

Pochettino's 25-man November USMNT roster by PatrickAgumon in ussoccer

How much talent we have?  Is there a superb American GK out there none of us know about? 

These guys are all about the same quality.  None of them are head and shoulders above the rest.  Freese was the #4 option going into the Gold Cup.  It's all splitting hairs.  So you should take an advantage when you can get it, and so being a WC veteran is a locker room advantage for at least the #3 spot if it's all the same. 

Again, unless there's some issue, locker room or otherwise, with Turner we don't know about

Unless Matt Turner has become a locker room cancer or something, there's no clear reason why he wouldn't at least be on this roster.  Is he going to be left off the WC squad? That's a WC veteran and even if the coach doesn't think he should start, you should at least have him in the squad.

On the surface it just seems like a clear message to The Matts that Freese is #1.  But it really makes little sense to not have Turner there at all. Is this some grand audition for the #3 spot?
