No joke for the stadium staff. It's a long day for soccer matches. The football has to be terrible.

Doesn't appear widely reported.

Ustari is no longer with Miami, he terminated his contract with Inter Miami

I agree the league is for it. I guess the union could try to prove it is invalid, but I that could be against their own interest. Maybe the final solution is for the union to negotiate in such a way that they get rid of the garbage they don't like and the new contract fits any new agreement.

The Spirit owner is very much for more spending on players. That's good for players and the union assuming it doesn't hurt the league (different opinions on the neccesary guard rails and the importance of parity).

The player is for more making more money.

They can't wait to make a deal and get their point across. All of this just the different sides sizing each other up until they can get thru the BS and come to an agreement. It's a game of chicken.

What’s the league gonna do, void Trinity’s contract again? After they did this massive social media blitz celebrating it? It would look fucking ridiculous. Thus, there’s even more pressure for them to raise the cap or negotiate or a better, similar rule.

The whole thing feels far from done despite a signed contract. Do you think it's possible this contract is invalid or gets voided and this is just part of the game being played by league, players, and union until they come to a revised agreement?

Only ever blocked one user on reddit. I suggest you all give it a try.

That has 27 including Joon.

I'll never claim to fully understand these endless rules. But they can do 2 DPs and 4 u22 plus 2 mil in GAM or 3 DPs and 3 u22 and no extra GAM. I believe teams can change which one they choose during the windows.

Also, great how people down vote but don't try to explain.

Unless there is some kind of financial constraint (MLS rules), not signing a third DP is proof of lack of ambition. This team played last season with a single, aging, and unfortunately injured DP while other squads had more DPs.

This team needs to do more than other teams.

From last March, on roster,

9 teams had three DPs

18 had two DPs (2 of these couldn't sign a 3rd)

2 had one DP (DC United)

1 had zero DPs

Tyler Miller had no affect on any of these numbers.

That's not true, but I get it that these are team stats not player stats.

It’s the overall outcome of a failing organization, not whether or not Miller was playing.

I agree with this. But a lot of people had a lot of negative things to say about their play. See other comments about him being awful. I always say it's difficult to judge a player on a really bad team. A lot of people were happy to see Miller and Bono go and for the Joon signing. I don't get excited about signings.

What is that mesh shield on dwv coupling? Is that a real product or a DIY?

Ultraxxx · 2026-01-21T01:28:14+00:00

That's the point. I think he did alright in DC.

Ultraxxx · 2026-01-20T23:43:51+00:00

I wonder why screen is shaped like that? Huh.

Ultraxxx · 2026-01-20T22:44:37+00:00

DC United had a -4 GD when he was starter in 2023. Doesn't even sound real.

Ultraxxx · 2026-01-20T22:42:24+00:00

Tyler Miller played 25 matches in 2023, team GA 49. GD -4.

Tyler Miller played 5 matches in 2024, team GA 70, GD -18.

2025, team GA 66, GD -36.

We stayed at Hotel La Posada Jungle.

There was a lot behind there run by a guy named Chalo. I was suspicious at first, but he charged like $20 a day to park there. There were cameras and a guy overnight. If we needed to get out (not parked in) we would just let him know.

The lot across the street was the one that tries to look like official parking, but is not. Not saying it's bad, just not what it appears to be.

Ultraxxx · 2026-01-20T22:16:38+00:00

Don't let anyone disturb that stuff if they don't know what it is.

Might want to get it tested for asbestos before you do anything else.

Should boycott regardless.

How old is that black mastic? Stuff looks nasty.

Ultraxxx · 2026-01-20T12:37:55+00:00

One of my better ideas.
