Don’t love that.
Sources: MLS has drastically scaled back its hiring policy around front office and coaching positions. The league has eliminated its minority interview requirements and many of the enforcement mechanisms surrounding those mandates. More details here.

Damn, I did not have a roster announcement and the full schedule release for the same day here. Wow.

We’re also working on a grade for each move made (incoming and outgoing) for the 2025 season. Boy, #FCDallas made a lot of moves this year. We’re not finished and have already 3k words down on these moves.

The wait is finally over, #FCDallas has announced their end of year roster moves. Get the full rundown of the moves here (our big breakdown of it all will come later).

Oooh…I wouldn’t hate Haak in Dallas next to Urhoghide.
🇺🇸 Justin Haak is a name to watch this winter.

The NYCFC defender is out of contract after a career-year as a ball-playing CB. Will be a ton of interest in MLS free agency but also Championship teams are among those interested for January move

So, no #USMNT in Dallas until maaaaybe the World Cup (non group games)? Don’t love that.
The USMNT's 2026 schedule is nearly set:

⚽️ pre-World Cup camp in Atlanta, May friendly on East Coast
🇩🇪 Sendoff game in Chicago vs. Germany
🇧🇪🇵🇹 March friendlies confirmed

The switch to a July-May season for the #MLS seems sensible for many reasons, and I think this is an important one: MLS matches are played in significantly higher temperatures compared to the top 🇪🇺 leagues.

Also, judging by those recent CPL highlights, snow football looks awesome, bring it on
November 14, 2025 at 4:00 PM
With #MLS shifting their calendar in 2027, the one thing that goes away will be the league’s games on July 4. The question now becomes, what holiday should the league try to ‘own’ next?
