#PlayTheKids progression isn’t a straight line and you can’t throw your hands up and just pull the plug if you’re not knocked off your feet. Cooper has been brilliant. Games like this make it so rewarding.
Tata needs get back coach
We’ve seen them give that before in Atlanta. But it would be insanely soft and VAR shouldn’t be used to overturn judgements like that imo.
Atlanta and Philly playing an ugly and choppy game has been on the menu for years now. They have contrasted and boiled over for years.
When your dad was Chucky and Grima Wormtongue, you gotta show up to the arena ready to play every day.
I don’t know that I’ve ever seen someone hit a puck out of the air like he’s got a fungo but that was awesome.
If you’re going to fire Oscar three games into the season with a poor roster defensively, then why the hell didn’t Orlando just fire him in the offseason?
There is a man at the ACC tournament screaming Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls while Stanford tries to shoot free throws
Dropping 83 points and going home to A’ja Wilson. What a life.
It made sense when Kobe was the guy who went for 81. Of course he put up enough shots on a hot night to do it.
Bam putting up 83 is so perfectly Madlibs and it’s delightful.
Kobe might try to rise from the grave and go for 85.
Put Spo in the HOF tonight.
What are the chances someone went on polymarket and predicted that this would drop today. It’s turtles all the way down and the turtles are on fire.
I understand that a lot of Atlanta fans are in a grumpy and grumbly era in their attention shift to the 2s but this isn’t new. They’ve genuinely been more fun to watch than the first team since early last year. Even before Silva took over, they have been operating sandpaper. Welcome to the party.
Basketball sun belt gauntlet is my second favorite in all of sports behind baseball sun belt because baseball sun belt hate is about as pure a hatred within a conference as you’re likely to find.
Anthony Sumo Jr common insane decision. Dude is such a physical monster but prone to insane moments.
This entire crew is fighting for its life, especially with that quadruple sub from Carolina Core.
Honestly just excited for all the people who are getting into the 2s to learn about how unhinge the officiating can be in MLSNP
I’m learning as I go as well. Also they change the cars every year and that makes it hilarious to me.
Only ever watched it on and off but these cars look like they’re made by ACME and that’s an appeal for me
Everyone in this F1 race are just taking turns blowing up
Going back to Thursday’s T20 semifinal, England have gotten their hearts broken three times in four days in bat and ball sports.
All of this would be more palatable if the imports worked but they haven’t. The lack of sumbitch in these guys has been frankly embarrassing at times. And all of this looks so so so much worse when the only guys looking like they would die for the shirt were homegrowns who get shipped out.
And some of this is: how do you want to function? Playing kids = mistakes at times while they learn. 2018(?) Philly did a masterclass at this with their CB due and I love them for it. But there was a ton of bitching about Campbell from fans when he played in ATL. It’s part of learning.
Not so much that they’ve ignored development, but they haven’t always given them chances to shine on the field. You’ve produced two left backs that got overseas and that’s great. But others have often been pushed down the chart in the past and then sold to bring in more imports.
That a big road win for the kids at RSL.
For Atlanta it felt like they kicked into gear too late, not unlike they did last year at times. No good way to talk about 0-3-0.
Still think hes gonna have rough moments on the wingback role at times but it’s fine. Just going to have those moments with kids. You accept those learning moments.
ELL can’t be getting boxed out by an 18 year old, man.
Big Gozo fan here. Dude has been fantastic and getting asked to do a tough job
