#AllForCITY plays knockout soccer tonight! I'm going to ignore our current state of affairs for a bit and enjoy this for what it is. It's time to never lose again.

Sometimes I wonder if my fervor for the Open Cup is just romanticized, until I turn a game on and it's being played in a picturesque neighborhood stadium. Love it. #USOC2025

I'm guessing the #AllForCITY vs Aston Villa presale didn't go too well 🫣

I bought tickets for tonight's #STLCards game. The players deserve a big reception after this road trip. Hope the weather cooperates, and that anyone still not digging out from the storms can come out and show the players some love.

There's no hindsight bias in pointing fingers at Olof. From the beginning, plenty of people noted it was an awkward timeline and puzzling decision. Lutz's unresolved roster gave Olof a low ceiling, but he's still made the least of it. #AllForCITY

All the losing with STLFC somehow drove me deeper in love with the club. The misery was oddly endearing. The losing with #AllForCITY feels empty and adrift. Why is this?

Need some hope, #AllForCITY? It feels like a failing project right now, but this is actually a typical expansion trajectory. Look at cumulative regular-season points for the first 81 games of recent expansion clubs. NSH: 119 CLT: 105 STL: 104 ATX: 103 MIA: 101 CIN: 55

#AllforCITY beat Kansas just once in their last seven attempts. In that stretch, Kansas scored 15 goals. Seven of those goals came after the 70th minute 😬

After what we saw last night, there's only one conclusion: #AllForCITY lacks that xDAWG.

Bantering about what color hell is sounds like an argument my toddlers would have. Consistently failing to back it up on the pitch is pathetic. Time to chill on the Kansas slander until #AllForCITY can show, not say, that CITY means more.

It's #AllForCITY midweek matchday! It might not be interesting soccer, and it might not be affordable, but it's still live footy with your friends. Can't help but be excited for that!

The NBA is so insane. I can't believe they actually did Cooper to the Mavs 😂

Everything from Yaro's giveaway to the three defenders shunning the ball and rushing to the net instead screams Vetta rec league. I've been in that same situation at Tesson Ferry and 270 plenty of times. #AllForCITY

Lutz said "teams should hate to play in St. Louis, because we’re going to be all over them, especially at home", but San Diego just had to chill and wait for their talent to win out. Another disappointing performance at home. #AllForCITY

Tonight felt less like a tactical breakdown than in recent matches. I liked the organization and ideas. But, no killer instinct in front of goal, and irredeemable mistakes in the defensive third. Olof has done himself no favors, but this is Lutz's mess. #AllForCITY

Lutz on ESPN Bundesliga broadcast this morning saying it's nice to see teams not just bunkering in for a point. It's going to take all my willpower not to overanalyze this.

Just the second rematch for #AllForCITY so far. Failed the first miserably in Seattle. Need to see signs of growth this time—a gameplan with fresh ideas and intent. Big opportunity to take a step forward at home.

With this news of Aston Villa coming to St. Louis, Lutz and Olof are either safer than I thought, or Gigliani more savage than I imagined. No way they fire the skipper before his old club comes to town, right?

Successful vibe shift last night. My soul needed a Klauss goal and a win like a Busch and a Jäger. Beat San Diego and we go full send. Lose it Olof-style and it's over the cliff for me.
