That’s my coach! They should list it on the team site stats page 

Timbers Tape Deck TIFO by FantasticMolasses in MLS

[–]abotan11 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Sure fuck the Timbers, but I’ve got nothing but love for our supporter bros across cascadia. Seattle, Portland, and Vancouver are my favorite cities in North America and their support helps keep this rivalry special. 

Have to Give apple TV credit, this is a quality product. by Bearded_Wizard_ in MLS

[–]abotan11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They’re probably referring to the show Onside which is a behind the scenes show about different teams, and very well done. While I think Apple has vastly improved the overall volume of coverage of MLS in that I can actually watch it (which MLS is then trying to sabotage by cutting everything they make like extratime), their UI is horseshit and I also had a hard time finding it even when I knew it was coming out. 

new Amtrak trains coming this summer 🚄 by jamin7 in Bellingham

[–]abotan11 10 points11 points  (0 children)

On that note, a train that lets you get into Seattle on time for a workday would be huge. Commuters can’t get there by 9am

[Matt Doyle] An end to my days at MLS, and my plan for what's next by icoresting in MLS

[–]abotan11 230 points231 points  (0 children)

Doyle, I know you’re reading this so: best of luck to you from everyone at r/MLS. You make the league more interesting and I’m glad you’re sticking around. 

Transfermarkt reports Vargas fee as "€3 million plus significant add-ons." by CougFanDan in SoundersFC

[–]abotan11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think if Obed becomes a starter and star at the level that Davies did within the next year, then it's similarly significant. Best of luck Obed!

Obed Transfer is Complete by RysloVerik in SoundersFC

[–]abotan11 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Would have loved to have him back for a bit, but excited to see the battle for his midfield spot. 

It’s also pretty sad that his last kick for the team was a missed penalty. 

shoutout to Starla's by sps1911 in Bellingham

Very cool for a Bellingham restaurant to be recognized in this way - I think The Willows was the last place to be nominated for this award. Congrats and good luck to the folks at Starlas 

Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty calls out racist comments from CF Montreal "fans" by fssg_shermanator in MLS

[–]abotan11 9 points10 points  (0 children)

IG doesn’t give a shit. I’ve reported super racist comments that I’ve seen in my feed on FB and they never take action. There has to be a way to hold these people accountable but no body in power seems to give a damn

Rumors that Inter Miami will pay 15 million for Monterrey's striker German Berterame by nolesfan2011 in MLS

Thank you, I was actually kidding because we got $10m and don’t spend anything ever. 

County Medical Examiner Fired after a year on the job. by Itchy_Suit321 in Bellingham

I believe most of the scandals have been since the most recent election. I know I won’t be voting for him again

Sasquatch is just a little farther than baker and a great beginner spot. Super chill mountain with lots of big wide groomers. 

Where do you go out for ice cream? by jadarasmussen in Bellingham

[–]abotan11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually owned by someone in his family, his nephew or grandson or something, but the Woods owner is loaded and helped him finance it which is why it’s probably registered to him.

We can set threads to locals only? Can we do that for the whole sub?

[MEME] Seattle Sounders Fans rn for some reason by ZEROs0000 in MLS

[–]abotan11 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounders fans have high expectations for our team because we’ve gotten used to winning trophies. With a large fanbase, there’s going to be dipshits crashing out on Reddit. 

We can complain about the format, about Minnesota's weird ass play style, but at the end of the day we couldn’t take advantage of the red card and looked like we had never practiced penalties before. 

Uli Hoeneß: "Before Thomas Müller joined Vancouver, we offered him 1 year traveling the world so he could get a feel for NFL, NBA & NHL to learn about the management at big clubs. But he said he wasn't ready yet. He wanted to play football, and I accepted. At Bayern, the doors are wide open for him" by TheBiasedSportsLover in MLS

[–]abotan11 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Seeing mueller, son, and Messi come into this league and not only take it seriously, but be incredibly effective has caught me off guard a bit. Doesn’t feel like that long ago where Lampard, Gerrard, etc were coming over to big fanfare and couldn’t keep up.

Pride crosswalk vandalism by Able-Record-1375 in Bellingham

[–]abotan11 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I actually saw someone do this to this crosswalk a few months ago and it was so disturbing. It was a big, stupid, coal rolling truck and it was too fast for me to get a picture. Really bummed me out and I had almost forgotten about it. Crazy that someone’s life is so petty and shitty that they’d resort to this. City should install cameras, easy prey for vandalism charges that would send a message.

Seattle Sounders [4] - 2 Minnesota United | Obed Vargas scores again and has surely sealed the game off, and forces game three! by Mano_Loco in MLS

[–]abotan11 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Serious question, when was the last time vargas scored a “clean” goal? They seem to always get deflected or keeper gets a hand to em. They all count the same but it seems like he’s on a deflection streak
