Alice Wong taught us that disabled people don’t just leave memories behind—they leave infrastructure. Lineages of care. Methods of collectivity, survival. She named the connective tissue that holds our communities together, even across death, even across the losses that come too fast and too often.

New Mexico United has become one of the USL’s most consistent organizations, one that’s a springboard into the MLS coaching ranks.
What makes United so resilient and so successful? I spoke to sporting director Itamar Keinan to find out.

How New Mexico United has become the USL’s top coaching factory
With a track record of sending managers to MLS and a rising young coach at the helm of this year’s trophy contender, New Mexico is doing plenty right.

Ridiculous thing for Nancy to say, but he knows how desperate to be taken seriously by the Old Dogs MLS is. We have, for the most part, 4 distinct seasons here whose extremes prove dangerous to fan, staff, & player health & safety that will be increased if this change is made
Wilfried Nancy on potential calendar flip:
“If they don’t do it, there is no logical thought behind the desire of MLS to become a really good league. Simple as that.
If you don’t make the change, you can talk & talk, but it’s impossible people overseas will take us seriously."
“If they don’t do it, there is no logical thought behind the desire of MLS to become a really good league. Simple as that.

Sources: MLS owners are expected to vote on flipping to fall-spring calendar at Thursday's BOG meeting. Could happen as soon as 2027.
Also: Changes to competition format expected too, including single league table + divisions.

It took me like six years to get my dad to understand the away goals tiebreaker and then MLS just got rid of it and now I’m gonna have to explain that there are divisional champs who simultaneously are and are not champions but also the playoffs have a losers bracket and that’s just the apertura and

Why wouldn't you just literally CREDIT me the paltry $20 for losing channels, YouTubeTV? Why on earth do subscribers need to jump through a bunch of hoops for it [rhetorical]? Do you see how that actually ADDS to ppl's impulse to flee?

The Seattle Sounders will never stop innovating. One year after they advance in the first round after not winning a game, they lose in the first round after not losing a game. You absolutely have to hand it to them.

Over the course of the past 4 yrs, my opinion of Berman has plummeted due entirely to her own decisions, words, & critical inaction. When I was well into #BermanOut sentiment, her contract was extended. Now, I have to see KC put a RWer on NWSL's Rich People Board of Something. I fear for the league

I am also unclear how long it’s going to take for someone with power to acknowledge trans and queer fans of the NWSL watching this all unfold and what that might mean for them, in addition to the protection of the players.

Berman wants people to chill because she’s worried about messing up NWSL’s money whilst her lack of action is the reason people are speaking up. Her ability to avoid and ignore accountability is destructive and terrifying

Coco Wahl-Gounder was a light in our family's lives, a fierce defender of her brother, Zizou, & her parents, Grant & Celine. Above all, she was a mama's girl. I was proud to be her uncle. Wish you could have known her. I hope she's run into Grant's arms. Love you, Celine 💙😢
