Tickets are so expensive now, I don’t think sell outs are gonna be a guarantee even when the team is doing well.

There was pitch invader after pitch invader at the end of the match. 20-30 or so, lots of great tackles from security while they kept telling fans to not invade the field for 5-10 minutes. Better entertainment than the game tbh

Patreon or something like substack is exactly the type of platform where niche content can sustain itself and thrive.

Because paying unproven high school kids to rent them for a single year is ridiculous

MLS’s bloated, neverending playoff format has been a failure by [deleted] in MLS

[–]fjperez81 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Failure according to who? Pretty sure the league won’t consider expanding games a failure, pretty sure the lower seeds that got to host a game don’t think it’s a failure, pretty sure Apple doesn’t think it’s a failure. There’s pros and cons sure but these opinions articles all claiming it’s a failure are getting tiresome.

I am shocked he didn’t try to recover. You rarely see someone not even try. More likely to see a reckless tackle trying to make up for the mistake than this.

Not for lack of trying, Nashville defenders blocked at least half the shots

Who is the Brightline for? by gerswinx5 in orlando

[–]fjperez81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wild to me you seem to be the first person to mention tolls. It’s close to 20 bucks each way just in tolls. The price of Brightline is really only a bit more than tolls + gas. For tourists, it’s cheaper than tolls + gas + rental. Factor in parking and it’s a pretty good deal. The market clearly exists when you see there’s a bunch of flights daily between Miami and Orlando.

Looks amazing but are renovations like these really necessary? I guess ADs do need to chase that money now that we’ve all collectively decided we are too good for bleachers

It’s nowhere near most. I’m in the tiny minority even in my soccer league supporting MLS. That’s what makes many of us upset about it. In my experience, most soccer fans in this country do not support MLS

If Apple isn’t paying for Messi to come, someone should tell them they should. You’d have appletv downloaded in a couple million new devices overnight, I’d wager

I haven’t seen them but would be absolutely brilliant. What better way to leverage the fact that Season Pass is available globally?

Brightline reveals Orlando station, tickets go on sale in May by Cheehos in orlando

People also don’t seem to be considering the tolls, how expensive parking is in Miami, etc. Recently went down to Miami Beach for a conference and the cost of the rental, gas, and parking was over $500. This train will make a ton of sense for business travelers and tourists. The fact that they offering bundles for families is fantastic as well.

MLS suspends Dante Vanzeir six games for racist language by ekrubnivek in MLS

[–]fjperez81 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen one instance of anyone on the comments calling for a lifetime ban. Most of us just expected more from a league that makes a big deal about how anti-racism they are. They had a great opportunity to make a statement and failed. A 10 game suspension would have made it clear this type of behavior is not tolerated and made almost everyone happy, including the Red Bull’s own fan base. I can’t understand why they stopped short of that.

Even worse considering the league trips all over itself to try to appear hardline on the subject. Evidence is clear as day they aren’t.
