The Sounders have about $4.25M in salary cap hit (so not including anyone on the supplemental roster) either out of contract or with an option for 2026. That’s a TON of potential maneuverability if they want it. It’s about 35% of their total cap spend, plus whatever GAM/TAM is used beyond the cap

A pitch-black cave in the Balkans is home to what appears to be the world’s largest spider web, which researchers say is a singular work of cooperation by two usually-hostile species of spider.

That season feels like an underachievement imo. There was some good, including some really good, stuff in the summer, but mostly it felt characterized by the team not playing as well as we know they’re capable of for long stretches

“Prime assist zone”
Reminder, Minoungou played 726 minutes. Everyone with at least four completed cutbacks had at least twice as many minutes. Rothrock and Kent both making the top 12 sorta illustrates what the Sounders try to do.
But I digress (it was worth a digression). My favorite pass in the right situations is the end-line cutback. Using the area beside the 6 yd box extended to the side of the 18 as a guideline, shots from cutbacks produce nearly the xG of shots from throughballs.
And we have a new Cutbacks King!

We gotta pay NWSL players more for a lot of reasons—first and foremost because of equality—but not far behind that is to stop them from trying to leverage the grifter-industrial complex by pivoting to the transphobic hard right the second they realize they can’t hack it and need a second career

Arise Sir David.
The wait is finally over: Beckham, the former England captain and now joint owner of Inter Miami, has been formally knighted at Windsor Castle.
But what does the honour actually entail? And what does it mean?
