If MLS can’t convince fotmob to display a three game series correctly I dunno that they should be doing this format.
Fotmob’s brackets show aggregate scores of the three games. Aggregate score is totally irrelevant. I’m annoyed.

I feel like Schulte could be our number one if given the chance. Turner’s our 1 or 2.
However, the ACTUAL best gks in the pool since May are Sean Johnson, Matt Turner, Brad Stuver, Matt Freese, and Roman Celentano.

Fotmob calling the wildcard round for the MLS Playoffs ‘the round of 32’ is such a diss.

Popped up on my fotmob feed for soccer matches today.
Tell me FC Ashdod doesn’t have like the worst crest in organized football.
The blurry dolphin; the muddled mix of graphics and shapes, the barfy colors. The old school telstar soccer ball.
Just amazingly tacky.

is the sorrow for all those that are not coming home
and the thousands of innocent civilians killed in a meaningless and bloody war.

The fact that today is the Jewish festival of Hoshanna Rabbah,
in which we sing ‘God save your people’
and today is the day that all of the remaining living hostages are freed - is remarkable. Feeling grateful.
