You could argue that the end of the Jim Curtin era began when he refused to play Tai Baribo. #doop

The Union attack, though two games, has been devastating. The ability of the forwards to work together – to create time and space for one another – is why.

Blake hasn’t played it out of the back once. Goes long every single time. Interesting. #doop

Sounders FC are doing their part to revolutionize the sports ticketing industry here. Very cool concept and one the Philadelphia Union could really thrive on considering they’re at the bottom of the city’s sports scene #DOOP

Today, I visited the first brothers of Philadelphia: Frankie & Rocco Westfield. Northeast Philly through and through. Rocco won the Catholic League title with Father Judge. Frankie starred for the Union in their win over Orlando. Story tomorrow on CBS Philadelphia.

Remember when Tai Baribo got subbed out without playing in the Seattle resumption so that Jim Curtin could play Markus Anderson?

Nobody is more surprised than I am about it but the MLS Onside show on AppleTV is really really good.

"It is an honor for me to be the record transfer (for Philadelphia). It is an accomplishment. Philadelphia was one of the main options for me to come to MLS. They are putting a lot of trust in me—the numbers speak for themselves. It is an honor, and I will try to show it on the field." #doop

During a call between Bruno, Daniel Herrera (agent), Carnell, and Tanner, Carnell made it clear: “You (Bruno) are everything I envision in a striker for my style of play.” Herrera described Carnell as “drooling over Bruno” during the call. Read here: open.substack.com/pub/nunezj/p... #doop

I’m a 30+ year transplant to Philadelphia and this is the first Eagles team I’ve really liked in all that time. This article captures why plus why it’s the greatest and worst city in the country and how we’ll fight you if you disagree.

On #MLS' proposed winter calendar shift: -Alignment w/ Euro leagues = better players coming (and going) -Saving playoffs for May/June before int'l tournaments a plus -Taking 6 weeks off for winter (Jan-Feb) is where the current offseason lies. -30 years in same format... why not give it a try!

Some thoughts on the Union and Carnell hiring, post-press conference. 1. Yes, this is Ernst's club now. But most importantly, he's been setting up the club regardless of who the CSO, Coach, or Players are. 2. Ernst is very, very good at. his job. It's a good bet to put your chips on him.

Doyle does a great job and kudos to whomever put this in reverse alphabetical order for @philaunion.bsky.social fans but it’s so damn depressing to see him succumb to the Union’s “we’re just a a small, developmental club” propaganda. Philly fans deserve better than what this team is doing. #doop

Underrated point. I’ve become less and less knowledgeable about non-Union MLS teams since the move to AppleTV.

Greg Vanney's decision to use Cerillo, Brugman, & Delgado in the midfield was a stroke of genius. They were at the heart of everything. Mark Delgado was fantastic. The amount of ground covered is insane. MVP performances rarely go unnoticed, but this kid was on one today.

In retrospect this is one of the ballsiest plays you’ll ever see. 30 minutes and the game-winning assist on a torn ACL to send his team to MLS Cup. Unreal.

If MLS Cup Playoffs happens behind a streamer’s paywall, is drowned out by American football season and isn’t covered by national media, is it really happening?

Doyle may be the best analyst re MLS out there. Why they would make it harder to access to his coverage like some desperate local newspaper that lost its classified ad revenue is beyond me.
