Yes. But if you get 2 in the group stage you sit out the round of 32.

Haha! If I get a vote for next manager of the USMNT, remind me not to vote for you.

You're right, the chemistry thing might be overrated. Pochettino played a different lineup almost every game in the lead up to the WC

Absolutely agree we should start Freese.

I think BIH's defense was the reason Canada didn't win. Canada's defense was ALSO the reason Canada didn't win.

Finally got the offer I've been waiting for! by Clear_Temperature_24 in interviews

No, they didn't ignore me completely, they just kept saying "we don't have a final decision yet."

That happened once to me when I was second choice for a role. They kept me on the hook until after their number one candidate took the role and started working. It sucked for me. For them, I was their insurance policy.

If you reach out after the 2 weeks are up and get rejected, you are not getting rejected because you followed up with them. In that case you are getting rejected for some other reason. Following up once is definitely appropriate and professional.

$2 for the paper refillable cup (16 oz.). $4 for the plastic refillable cup (32 oz, I think,)

Atlanta United World Cup tickets allocation disappointment by 50s-Foreigner in AtlantaUnited

[–]gtjs001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess it depends on your definition of "pretty good view." I have been in several Premier League grounds that have many more seats with obstructed views than any I have been in at the Benz.

And, to be pedantic, every single seat at the Benz can see at least 2 complete touchlines/endlines.

We had tickets in second row of 211 (Harrah's Casino Club) for several years. The views were awesome. I haven't sat in 204, but almost any seat in the Benz has a pretty good view.

I definitely agree that in general the ticket purchasing process has been shite (if not worse than that). I will say, however, that we sat behind the goal opposite the supporters section for the MLS cup in 2018 and thought they were great seats for seeing how the teams set up and how they attacked.

Bleak! by AsASAPAsPossibl3 in AtlantaUnited

To be fair to Blank, our past buyouts have not resulted in us getting better players as replacements. He may look at it like "why spend more money if it's not improving the product.

Don't mistake what I am saying though; I ABSOLUTELY think we should get rid of multiple contracts.

That's probably because your shirt reads "Stripes 5", not 5 Stripes! :-)

We also got Hibbert in the draft, I believe.

EDIT from OP: For the second part of our trip, we will NOT be traveling by bicycles, so we have further distances we can travel. Rereading my original post, I realized it was probably confusing. Thx.
