The fact that anyone that plays MLS soccer or for the national team played ncaa soccer is the problem. NCAA is a wasteland for development and I think is one of the prime barriers to improving us soccer. Whether the draft exists or not is really not my complaint. NCAA soccer is and we need to move away from having

Go back to yelling at YouTube videos.

Except in this instance he played ncaa and was never part of an academy. They do have academies, but they do not invest in them as much as they could/should (look at the Houston Dynamo). If it is as redundant as you make it out to be, then why not get rid of it? Also, you’re ugly and smell funny as long as we’re doing

Except in the exact player Billywrote about who played ncaa, was never part of an academy and was drafted. So clearly it’s still happening.

the question of why MLS doesn’t develop better players begins and ends with the idea of a player draft. Why spend money on an academy to develop players when you can just let the shitty NCAA system do a crappy job for you? Sure you’re wasting the golden years of player development and likely getting a slightly less

I mean this was brilliant work by MCBW, they did this on purpose knowing it would send a stronger message when no one showed up andit worked. That was some good staged outrage.

so they traded for the guy they were always going to trade for to replace the guy that was much better that they traded for scrap metal and they signed the guy that is already on the decline for an exorbitant amount of money and ignored their most glaring weaknesses while doing just enough to prolong the Wegner era

May they all be haunted by the knowledge of what they did, it should be our job even if we can’t get them fired to remind them in graphic detail what they enabled.

not to be a jerk, but generally it’s a good thing to have toddlers put on their own clothes in the morning no matter how long it takes. It creates a sense of independence and ownership. I get that we’re all in a rush, but putting school clothes on the night before just doesn’t sound like a good idea.

“As tragedies are politicized, blame is inevitable. “ Fuck you, you blame deflecting waste of space. I’m glad now that whenever your name is mentioned someone will immediate mention Nassar. Enjoy that legacy.

You have never actually been near a bear have you? That gorilla ain’t doing nothing to a bear, they are half the size and have no claws or carnivorous teeth. The buffalo will slow them down, but again are smaller, lack the ability to actually harm the bear and are way way way dumber.

You guys are dumb if you don’t choose bears. A single bear could whip that entire pack of wolves. After they take the numbers, grab the rats, they can run interference while the bears take everything else out one by one

I posted about the women’s march on lifehacker and was shocked at the response. The internet is a bad place.

I have no desire to push anyone, I am only asking for equal opportunity at every level. If you think that exists right now your delusional and/or trolling. Part of equal opportunity is providing protections for both men and women in the workplace especially during child rearing and time of needed for caring for

Outside my car on my street. Not that bad? I was sick with food poisoning for 48 hours mid summer. Came out after two days to find an army of flies congregating on my massive explosion. Looked up and my retired neighbor was watering his lawn. He gave me a look that said he’d been watching this develop for the last few

Way to use an obscure example to prove that women aren’t good CEOs. Can I list all of failed companies run by men? Just in the last 5 years? With their Golden parachutes? It’s long, it’s very long. Often with the same name over and over.

As I said above, just because some other country has it worse doesn’t mean we shouldn’t want ours to be better. If our standard is “well we’re better than Ethiopia, might as well stop trying” than we’ve already lost. Also you hit the nail on the head, sure women who haven’t had children earn more than their male

It’s just cruel to put this right after a story about Tom Brady in the AFC championship game. I feel like you did this on purpose
