I don't know how this works and I don't know what I'm doing but I like the Timbers and I hate fascism. #RCTID
Ok - read a lot of timbers news today, and here's my read:

* Timbers are switching to the 2DP/4U22 model. Good. We are a smol market, with a bad academy.
* Like it or not, we're building around Velde. Meh.
* We're trying to do right by the old guys, but also get rid of bad contracts. Good. #RCTID

Velde might not get any credit on the score sheet for those Assists, but the streets won't forget who sent those crosses in for Mora. #RCTID

6m + sell-on for Santi is great, and I hope that sell-on is worth millions.

But I don't think it will be, bc that kid is a punk.

I don't know much about the Greek League and I know less about the Polish one, but this guy looks like he can dribble in tight spaces, weight his passes appropriately, and isn't afraid to rip shots - (at least based on his highlight reel)

If the MLS is gonna change the schedule up, at least CHANGE THINGS UP.

I've only been thinking about this for about 10 hours, but here are some ideas that are better than some of the nonsense I've seen out there today:

Howie Roseman says the #Eagles won't even scout players who have ever been violent with women:

“I won’t even watch them. I don't even want to talk. I can't go 'He’s really good, he did it 10 years ago and he learned from it.” It just doesn't work for us."
