After issuing his rulings, Judge Young has some absolutely stark words for the Trump administration.
"This represents racial discrimination and discrimination against America's LGBTQ community. That's what this is. I would be blind to not to call it out. My duty is to call it out."

It’s pretty clear some of it he does for shock value alone. But yeah it’s also disturbingly clear he believes far too much of it.

If it were me, I would just let the contract run out on Armas. I just don’t think pressing as playmaking is a winning strategy. Works against poor teams, or early season teams. But against good, dialed-in teams, it fails (see NYRB). Offer Curtin a pile of cash!

Last season? Didn't we have like top xG in MLS until Cole got hurt and we lost last bunch of games and got throttled in the playoffs? Cole never being right this season may play a role in the cratered offense.

I don’t think N.E. are bad since the formation change. Still not a top team, but not bad (like the Rapids 🤪). Orlando is a strong team. KC isn’t great but are better than they were, and while Galaxy are still bad, they have speedy goal-dangerous wingers that are Rapids kryptonite. I’m not optimistic

There is plenty of blame to go around on all sides, of course. But the normal people are not generally at fault, and the ones to suffer the most. I weep for them all.

I makes as much sense as anything this administration is doing. They are purposefully trying to break the U.S. government, 1) because Putin wants it, to make the U.S. weak, and 2) because the rich want it so they can privatize and profit off of everything.

Nobody is voting for Steffen. He's missed a fair amount of time now, and now everybody knows he's hurt. Was nice to see Matt Doyle still had him top of GKOTY in his mid-season award check-in though.

It’s a great system, because by the time you get to “the end” the first boards you installed will probably be ready to replace…

Keep pushing that boulder (those boards) up that hill (replacing rotten boards)!

Agreed. He’s been playing better than Luna and McGlynn, but left off the Gold Cup roster for both. Go figure.
