Hearing Jake Zivin orgasmically scream “Messi”, every single time Messi touches the ball, has become tiresome. It takes away from the times Messi does awesome Messi magic. Jake is already boring in the Cincinnati vs Miami playoff game.

Totally baseless guess at Mike Jacobs’ NSC scouting of Scandinavian players (If signed, I’ve outscooped Tom Bogert):
CB: Maxwell Woledzi, Mamadou Thierno Barry
GK: Jonathan Fischer, Adam Håkonsen
Def. Mids: Markus Karlsson, Besfort Zeneli
Attack Mids: Marius Broholm, Clement Bischoff

Should Nashville SC sign Tobias Gulliksen? Seems like he would fill a good spot in the midfield.

If you include the World Cup break in the 2026 MLS schedule, 84% of the full capacity match-weeks line up with the new summer-to-spring calendar they'll start using in 2027.
It's essentially the same schedule already.

Brugman seemed not to live up to the cost.
I wish we could have had a little more fanfare about Joe and Walker leaving, but I understand, it’s a business. Joe was always great to all the kids in the stands.

Here's a quick look at how the current MLS spring-to-fall calendar and the new summer-to-spring calendars will line up.
Final schedule tbd, but estimating ~75% of full capacity match weeks (where all 34 teams play) will overlap.

In MLS regular season, Nashville SC had about 1530 minutes of play with Walker on the field, and about 1530 minutes off.
When Walker was on the field, we gave up .647 goals per 90.
When he was off the field, NSC gave up .411 goals per 90.
Not perfect metric, but supports the decision. #EveryoneN

Jeisson Palacios being completely off the roster for Nashville SC v Miami feels more than “nursing an injury.” He flew to Miami, he was posting on social media, all reasonable signs pointed to him playing.
The totality of the circumstances makes me think there was a locker room issue.

According to Nashville SC's communications team, Jeisson Palacios has been nursing an injury and his status was a game-time decision.
He wasn't on the injury report, and made the trip to Ft. Lauderdale. Big test for Jack Maher tonight.

Suarez was CLEARLY trying to kick Najar in the testicles, which is exceptionally unsportsmanlike, even for a player like Suarez. I played American football for years and received my fair share of violent conduct, but no one crossed the line to an unscheduled prostate exam.

Straight up pathetic action by the Australians. Targeting a player like Pulisic and knocking him out of a friendly does NOTHING to make Australia better. That’s not just unsportsmanlike, it’s cowardly. #USMNT
Christian Pulisic off injured in the 28th minute. Diego Luna getting ready to enter the match.
USMNT down 1-0 to Australia. Tough first half.
