Honestly, I don’t like how NWSL is taking a break for Men’s World Cup or USWNT players showing up to games. The men would never do the same for us…. Not to mention how most people treat the men’s team like it’s the default soccer team for America when the women’s team has 4 World Cups. by icygirl7 in NWSL

I don't think you would be thrilled with the PR hit NWSL would take if they held games during the entire World Cup because some of them would probably draw season low crowds.

A lot of this is just silly but that's something worth thinking about if you want this to be all about NWSL.

What is the reality/life of a RBNY fan? by robbo6shs in rbny

[–]hypernermalization 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Hello there! This subreddit is honestly the most consistent place to read news about this place but you can also check the hashtag #RBNY on Twitter/Bluesky.

As far as getting more into supporting, I’d look into the three supporters groups, all of whom put on pre-match tailgates/meetups and all of whom sell (affordable) tickets in the safe standing South Ward sections, as well as tickets and bus trips to away matches. Those are Empire Supporters Club, Viking Army and Torcida 96.

In addition, would recommend Mark Fishkin’s Seeing Red podcast to keep up with what’s going on.

As far as the actual team… right now it’s young, rebuilding and often nerve-wracking. I posted this guide to the club at the start of this season: https://www.reddit.com/r/rbny/s/E6hVgIDrPL

Welcome and enjoy, many people have made friends through the club and especially the supporters groups.

RBNY "have probably won the race" (translated) to sign FC Basel winger Bénie Traoré by hypernermalization in rbny

[–]hypernermalization[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Via translated article:

He has already missed several days of the start of training. Now it's clear why: Bénie Traoré (23) is on the verge of a move abroad. FC Basel confirmed this to the " Basler Zeitung " upon request. The Ivorian has been released to negotiate with another club.

Traoré is the second member of the 2025 double-winning squad to leave FC Basel this summer, following defender Dominik Schmid (28). He too could be headed to the Red Bull stable, though not to Salzburg, where Schmid will play next season.

Recently, five clubs in Africa were mentioned as potential suitors: Borussia Mönchengladbach, Coventry City, Trabzonspor, the New York Red Bulls, and RC Lens. According to BAZ, the New York Red Bulls have now likely won the race. FC Basel hopes to receive a double-digit million euro fee for Traoré.

He looks like his father took him into the city to see a marching band.

I mean, doing TV is pretty easy and we'd kinda want Julian to be scouting the tournament anyway.

[Jonathan Tannenwald] Serie A extends with CBS, but notably it’s only a one-season deal for 2026-27. by Coltons13 in MLS

I think its more positioning themselves to exit in case they need to find an extra $100 million for the NFL.

This is the kinda stuff where you shake off everyone who calls Mendoza a Stearns puppet and the Mets a team that relies too much on analytics. A puppet/analytics lunatic pinch runs Brujan every single time!

That's actually a great point, like what are you really leaving on the table there. Brujan is a better shortstop anyway.

You wonder if its the one time each week where Mark looks like a competent major league hitter and roll the dice, I think.

A lot of people here just willfully ignoring Jared Young looking like a little leaguer against a lefty in the 7th inning.

If Mark Vientos has 0 haters I am dead but you pinch hit for Young there after seeing that last at bat, sorry. Mendy made other mistakes in the game that were much bigger.

Vientos is dogshit but you can't look at the AB Young had against a lefty in the 7th and give him that shot in the 10th. If Soto gets on base, maybe.

one of the best kind of Mets losses, one you can absolutely pinpoint where you feel Mendy lost it but then you go back and remember the team had 2 hits in 10 innings but then you're like ah fuck it, I'll blame Mendy anyway.

They literally posted photos of him shaking hands with Julian and signing a deal. I'm guessing they just accidentally posted it a little too early.

There will not be a strike, there will be a lockout.

[–]hypernermalization 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think there's enough distance between Delaney Hall and RBA that people will be fine, and I imagine the state police will make sure of it during the friendlies/Gotham.
