Started out playing soccer in Brooklyn. Then became fans of the Cosmos. Now an independent supporters group for New York City FC. Glad that the World's Greatest City finally has a real club in the Beautiful Game. Blue feels good on us.

Is it so wrong of me to want a #HudsonRiverDerby where #NYCFC wins 8-0 so Red Bull fans would shut up about that ONE match

Aiden O'Neill quotes before the Hudson River Derby, thread 1/10 On what he brings to #NYCFC: "In the buildup, getting out of precarious situations, driving with the ball, creating opportunities for forwards to play the last pass...I want to be playing that last pass, getting assists & pre-assists."

Sarah Ortiz has spent years trying to prove that her ex used her personal information to rack up $45,926 of debt in her name without her knowledge. Unfortunately, Sarah's story isn't new. Scores of women across the country are victims of coerced debt—and it's ridiculously hard to crack down on.

Donald Trump wondering aloud if the new NYCFC stadium coming to his borough of origin will host games for the 2026 World Cup (won’t be built, too small) or the 2028 Olympics (stadium is in Queens, not LA)…🫥☠️ www.mediaite.com/tv/trump-ask...

The player ratings for Wednesday's 0-0 draw are up - no surprise, Matt Freese is your POTM Here's Abe Shite with the numbers:

Tints in silent films could be literal (red for fire) or symbolic (rose for romance). Thanks to some rather overbuttered Kodak marketing materials for pre-tinted films, here are the tints and what they could mean! Rose was nearly always symbolic, used for romance and romantic settings.

Stats are fun: Here's the Hudson River Derby in 12 numbers

NEW: Inter Miami is just 3-3-5 in all comps since April 1. No MLS team concedes a higher ‘big’ chance rate to opponents (30.7%!!), many down Miami’s left defensive third. Opponents are exploiting Jordi Alba, who just re-upped through 2027. Sizing up a mess: www.nytimes.com/athletic/635...

I don’t want to read about a former President’s mental decline because a journalist got a book deal. I want to read a report about the current President’s mental decline by a journalist brave enough to speak out now.

Good morning ☕️ It’s time for you to rate the players 📊

It was better from #NYCFC last night at Audi Field following one "terrible" & one "very weak performance." However, City has failed to score a goal in 351 minutes all comps & 261 minutes in #MLS Coach Pascal Jansen after 0-0 draw at #DCU 👇 #DCUvNYC #NewYorkCityFC

The moment of the match from the Man of the Match. Luis Barraza denies Jonny Shore his first #NYCFC goal in 0-0 draw at Audi Field. As heard on the New York City FC Network 👇 #DCUvNYC #DCU #MLS #DaleNewYork @newyorkcityfc.com @newyorkcityfcii.bsky.social

Morning after the 0-0, but here's Matt Freese post-match reactions to the #NYCFC draw in DC, 1/4 On the result: "I’m not focused on clean sheets, I’m focused on winning. A frustrating one because we created chances. Luis had a fantastic game, very happy for him, wish it didn't happen against us."

Another goalless night for #NYCFC as they failed to capitalize on many chances to turn 1 point into 3 ICYMI, our recap of the 0-0 at Audi Field has more on Luis Barraza’s revenge game, Pascal Jansen’s fluid formation + fluid personnel choices, Matt Freese’s point-preserving saves

NYCFC haven't scored in 350+ minutes and only have 4 goals in their last 8 games Pretty brutal look when you have $18m of attacking talent loaned out...

Credit to the sickos on the NYCFC Forums, but tucked into the announcement for Seymour Reid's short-term loan yesterday, was that the he will be joining the first team on a homegrown contract in 2026. The 17-year-old has 7 goals in 10 MLSNP matches and is eligible to sign a HG contract this fall.

NYCFC record against Top 5 teams in the East: 2-2-0, 8 pts out of 12 Bottom 5 teams: 1-1-2, 4 pts out of 12

Some how #NYCFC 's inability to score a goal landed Barraza a spot on MLS' Team of the Match Day

When Nashville SC defeated Charlotte FC on Saturday, the supporters section lacked its usual verve and had visible gaps throughout the risers. The reason was explained in a pair of large white banners. No estamos todos aquí. We are not all here. www.nytimes.com/athletic/634...

Had my first sit-down w/ 18-yr old Jonny Shore yesterday. He has played in 11 of 12 matches w/ 8 starts. I asked him when he realized he might become a bigger part of things. Listen👇 The full convo - including whose autographs he has from the team - later "On Frame." @sickpodnycfc.bsky.social
