I'll hit you up later tonight, Kevin.

Hinchey's reaction is hardly unique for MLS front office types. Never dealt with a touchier set of people. Even had a coach want to *meet* me and told me to be sure to bring my coaching badges after having the temerity to criticize a side that had taken a single point in its last four matches.

Two running plays in the first half. Two.

Happened in Rockford with the Bears game, too, as if living here wasn't bad enough.

It was referred to as a "murking" which was a word I'd never known prior to then. Not only was the wrestling coach retained he's since ended up as the AD. Responsibility, annat.

The broomstick thing happened at my high school my senior year. Didn't really enjoy being an editor of the school paper at that time.

Ooo! More reading to slowly drip away what is left of this Wednesday afternoon!

Getting into a bowl is of the utmost importance for these teams, because bowls bring in money.

MLS is subsidized by NFL owners. Try again.

I put both in the Paint Drying category, just below Longingly Staring at the Box of Wine Trying to Figure Out How I Actually Drank All of That In One Night.

The WNBA has a higher minimum salary than MLS. (Not a joke.)

"...There's ya prahblem. See, ya shud have'n engine here."

I was far more suspicious of how he went out of his way to mention the battle beam pit.

Don't forget, though: One of the best leagues in the world (THE WORLD) by 2022! The PowerPoint says so!

Rino being Rino. I love that man.

James laid out a handful of common sense proposals that would do nothing to alter the nature of the game in his New Abstract only 15 years ago. Maybe instead of setting up a committee they could just pick up a copy and give it a read.
