This 10-division format was fun, too. Fewer league games, more space for those *other* competitions.

My fav was this 6-division version. Alas.

I workshopped too many variations of MLS divisions while killing time during Covid.
This is where my 5-division format landed (note the postseason difference): #MNUFC

Teams came play; ref isn’t meeting the moment (again).
Loser will feel the missed opps in the 1H
Rosales offers qualities but there were too many turnovers. He’s the first sub.
One photo is from the USOC semi; one from tonight; and neither called. 🤷♂️🤬 #MNUFC

Loons are limping into the postseason. It’s been a rough ride since July. Where this one was an uphill battle early, can’t help but think of the 6 pts lost late in two road summer games.
On to play FSeattle. 😵💫😬 #MNUFC

Smash/Grab capped by some sweet Nectar. DSC is the league’s PotW, Pereyra joins him on the best 11.
This W ranks for 2025 with the 2 v FSeattle and the curbstomp over Innie Miami. Add more, please!
What a second half. Final stat sheet is sicko art. Love it. #MNUFC

If you match a team in shots…put 0 of those on goal…
lose 3-0…
you’re 6th in your conference standings, 9th overall…
AND your season includes this string of results…
You have zero reason to fight after the whistle of a trophy match.
I’m neither impressed nor entertained.

First word that comes to mind for Portland is annoying.
Kinda cool when they play everyone else, largely safe when we meet them, prone to provide the surprising poke (see July game).
Post-Tani era begins w/out change: solid D, frustrating finishing, 1-0, Wonderwall. (Also Phil whines a lot) #MNUFC

Löd was great, unsung MVP was Bongi, Pereyra and Tani were solid (in their swan songs?), and Boxy’s celeb was iconic.
Next: Portland. A W adds to T’picks’ regression to the mean (and changing coaches).
