Proof the shield is cursed:
In 30 MLS seasons, the Supporters' Shield winners have went on to win MLS cup only EIGHT times. The most recent of those was LAFC in 2022. That is flooring.

Nashville away on a Friday evening.
World Cup final 2 days later.
Charlotte away 5 days after Nashville
98 days between home games.
55 days without a game for world cup break.
This weird season is followed immediately by a half season, then MLS changes to the international calendar.

Spokane has now burned 4 subs before 73 minutes are up. They have to throw numbers forward to even try to get back in this.

My view of the pen that put One Knox up 2-0.

HT. This One Knox team plays excellent. I already knew this. Doesn't mean Spokane Velocity hasn't had their chances however. They had about 50 corners in the first half and didn't even come on target with the majority of those.

It is nice to see a team play quality ball and strike first and quick. One Knox up 1-0 only 4 minutes in.

Very interesting. Don't know how this will boost the viewership numbers that are so mysteriously hidden... but there has to be a reason this decision was made. Maybe the numbers were good but not good enough, or this is an attempt to salvage the deal before a clause gets triggered to opt out.
BREAKING: MLS will come out from behind the separate MLS Season Pass subscription beginning in 2026, per sources.
All games will be available on the Apple TV streaming service.

Like I said before, it is so humbling to see how much the beautiful game has grown there since I left.

NickintheATL History Lesson:
I moved to Atlanta in early November 2018. For just about 10 years prior, I lived in Knoxville.
I was so excited when @oneknoxsc.bsky.social came into being in 2021 back there, first in USL2 then up in USL1. #oneknoxsc
