Don’t even joke about that.

Quinn is the plug that will fill the Wagner-shaped hole in the set piece plays.

Ok. I have to put this out there. The players have to know they are losing the fans, right? I know Carnell has to toe the line at the pressers, but even he has to know it.

Honestly, if the Union could get fans as loyal as the CA fans…the game-day experience would be so much better.

Honestly, (and I’ll get hate for this) but maybe…just maybe…Damiani. There is no one who can get him that ball, though. He almost had one tonight, but the service was on the wrong shoulder.

Neither Stas nor Allendoh are going to overwhelm with their speed, nor should anyone expect them to.

It’s worse in the stadium.

Haven’t gone in the stadium yet, but from mw walk by the parking lots and in Union Yards, I’d estimate 10:1 CA to Union.

I don’t hate this

To be fair, by the end, many of us wished we were also not in Chester.

I have been told by my friends’ 10 year olds to β€œnever say that again” when using 6-7. I believe the fear is that your generation and mine (X) are appropriating it.

I booed. I yelled β€œHey Bradley, what the F*&K” at the top of my lungs as he walked into the tunnel at halftime. It is only going to get worse if he, and the team, don’t improve.

Never thought I’d look fondly upon the memories of Freddy Adu, the Farfans, and Chris Konopka.

Phew. I mean...I still anticipate the rest of the stadium to be screaming "AZUL" in unison...but maybe Adam can come back and rile TRE up for old time's sake.

Thank God MLS is getting rid of those July and August games for...this.

Ugh. Am I reading it right that Cruz Azul will be the home team for the match? Last time that happened, the River End was mostly Cruz Azul fans...with a few Union fans strewn about. Quite uncomfortable for a while, but in the end the Azul fans around me were actually quite cool.

Maybe having a high school dropout questioning someone in a deposition is a bad idea?

Just to be clear, I’m not talking about the DGSO. May have been soft, but would get called normally.

They need a third color card. It would indicate β€œthis would not be a foul, except his name is Son or Messi.”

Was wondering what happened there...

@msnowcomms.bsky.social I know that we are not our spouses, but given her husband's compromise and genuflection to Trumpism, I can no longer watch anything on your network that features Ms. Tur. It is sad, because I had great respect for her and genuinely found her reliable.

Fair. I wasn’t aware of the two appeal limit. Run him for 90 on Thursday then.

What are the rules on appealing this type of red card? Seems awfully soft and subjective (without knowing what exactly was said).

No you are most certainly not. I’m keeping time-travel all to myself.

Look, #DOOP fans, I’m excited as anyone for the start of the new season but we, as fans, have two remaining items to pressure the FO on:

1) The Wagner-sized hole at LB;
2) Bringing Jose Martinez home.
