Pro/Rel isn’t happening and it wouldn’t make US club soccer any better or any more popular even if it did happen. The idea that somehow pro/rel would magically fix the US soccer pyramid is aggressively stupid, the problem is a lack of stable investment and fan support, not a lack of pro/rel. Stop beating a dead horse

If that is his argument (it doesn’t seem to be) then it’s a bad argument. MLS isn’t the Premier League, but its level of talent continues to improve and they have some pretty legitimate academy systems. They operate with some funky rules, yes, but those rules are in place because the alternate situation is NASL, a

Yep!

Basically, after voting, they narrowed it down to 3 players, none of whom is Giovinco. Likely, he’s not on there because he was MVP last year and the voters didn’t want to give it to him twice in a row, not because he wasn’t the best player this year. None of the players nominated are bad exactly, Bradley Wright

Check the links he has in there. The one about “producing” is, in particular, about US Soccer supposedly colluding to keep NASL down. Plus he’s talking about the “forces of competition” as in market competition, ie other US soccer leagues.

MLS, a bullshit soccer league more invested in protecting its owners from the forces of competition than in producing top-level competition on the pitch.

To be clear, a lot of these practices are no longer true. In part, this is because people got wise to it and documentary film makers stopped doing it. The other side is that since most photographers don’t use actual film anymore, but rather digital cameras, they don’t need to worry about film cost. Film everything

Brownshirts? Brown isn’t classy. We wear gold shirts, gold shirts made of solid gold. Classy, like Trump. You can’t seem to think at our level. Sad!

It really is an amazing game, and it does it by simply adding the teleport ability in my opinion. If you want to go about without killing anyone, you can still do things relatively quickly by knocking out guards and then teleporting away with their unconcious corpse so you can drop it on some rooftop far away.

If you’re not necessarily an MLS fan, but want to see how it plays out in the playoffs, Toronto FC vs NYCFC might be for you. It’s got probably the best player in MLS (Sebastian Giovinco), some familiar faces from team USA (Michael Bradley and Jozy Altidore) and old European players like David Villa, maybe Andrea

Yep.

That is good headbutting form. Leads with the crown, leaves his feet for extra power, but he’s just a touch slow on the delivery which takes away from the power of it. I’ll give him 8/10, kicks to the balls.

Ah, VR. Lots of big numbers being thrown around, absolutely nothing to back them up in reality. I guess it makes sense for a “virtual reality” medium that the people hyping it can’t see that those numbers are way overblown.

Now playing

Holy crap, I just realized this band’s name is called “Cutting Crew”, that is so freaking emo. I mean, I guess it meant something else back in the day, but that’s kinda messed up. Anyway, here’s the video:

I found the Oregon fan guys!

Better question: Will Andre Johnson remember Andre Johnson? Because of CTE, get it? GALLOWS HUMOR!

Sure, but in the EPL and other European leagues, spending is the single biggest determinant of position come end of the year. That’s why you see stuff like this, where going into the fans know there’s very little chance of your team winning, so they make up chants to mock that.

What if you aren’t healthy enough for sex? Bad heart or something? You just sit in town and drink? I can’t see paying $40,000 a day to get drunk at a bar with realistic robots.

Offhand, a few guesses on the VR:
