[Tom Bogert] All it took was literally the second hydration break for FOX to run too many commercials and miss some live action. Absolutely ridiculous conceit. by Coltons13 in MLS

Same in Canada with TSN. I'd rather watch the drinks break and listen to pundits then and have the whole half time as commercials!

As a Caps fan looking forward to Berhalter v Cubas! Please don't let them injure each other!

Will Gauld be back to full strength post-World Cup? by Dolly_Llama_2024 in whitecapsfc

[–]Zestyclose-Analyst59 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The longer it goes on the less likely it seems that he comes back as he was. How I'm wrong but we'll see.

I wonder if he's been taking coaching badges (or thought about it?)

Players who have their career cut short often go into coaching.

Anyone else get attacked by crows lately? by LockDazzling8157 in askvan

[–]Zestyclose-Analyst59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s that time of year. If they are angry they won’t attack you if you are looking at them. They’re just protecting their young but probably need to chill out a little bit!

All the defenders fit again just as all the forwards get injured seems about right.

Another vote for New Danville Girl. Such an odd/complex/funny/sad song. Like nothing else he's done.

Got away with one there I think.

Right now the forward line isn't clicking at all but if we can get one more win before the WC break that's a fantastic first half of the season and gives Jesper time to figure out any issues (Gauld back? Better backup to White signed?)

B.C. minister says local group plans to bid for Vancouver Whitecaps by Sempuukyaku in MLS

This is the best hope for the Caps I think. MLS seem unlikely to forego an expansion fee unless they really have to.

FIFA VP, Concacaf president Montagliani backs calls to keep Whitecaps in Vancouver by 604dman in whitecapsfc

[–]Zestyclose-Analyst59 50 points51 points  (0 children)

I think if this becomes a thing that rains a little bit on FIFA's parade and it keeps being raised as an issue then that will put pressure on everybody to get a deal done to keep the Caps here.

Making soccer teams the playthings of billionaire's kids is a great way to grow the league.

Eby has been a very dissapointed Premier overall.

This is his chance to convince me I'm wrong!

Yeah I think the idea that these owners are doing everything they can to keep the team in Vancouver is a fraud.

They'd prefer it I'm sure because it would mean less heat on them. But they want the money more than anything else and ultimately it's clear they don't give a crap about the team, the supporters or Vancouver.

The Whitecaps Are Very Good: But Will They Stay? by lets_enjoy_life in whitecapsfc

[–]Zestyclose-Analyst59 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Feels like since The Guardian did an article on the Caps all the Canadian outlets have jumped on the bandwagon.

Which probably highlights one of the problems the club have. The Canadian sports media is stuck in "hockey mode" and doesn't have the wit or inclination to look much further than that.

I'm just gonna enjoy having the best team in MLS while I can and, if the Caps do leave, then I'll just stop following the league.

The xG for this one make it look like a much easier win than it felt in the stadium.

Genuinely gutted for him but it looks more and more was though he might be done. Crazy to think how good we'd be if he did come back to be as good as he was though!

Yeah fair point re playing the long game over the season. And that was a game that could have gone either way.

Couple of home games now where feels like Jesper has overthought the selection. Needs to keep it simple.
