@MLSGoneWild Really did not love how the team handled Chicago's high press during the last 20 minutes. Will need to be tidier.

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

Just found out our train from London to Liverpool (and back) is canceled for the #EvertonFC match v Tottenham on 19 January. Any other out-of-towners with the same issue? Any @EvertonChicago group make the trip for that one?

@hankgreen awesome video on the NJ drone issue! Would love to send you a DM re:the investigation of drone reports near the airport in the mid-major city where I live (I was the person in charge of doing this)

@kimischilling That's fine and all but he's already threatened to enact a 25% tariff on Mexican imports if they don't "close the border."

@MattDoyle76 These dudes are straight up exhausted

[The Soccer Rant @TheSoccerRant]

50 matches if you count playoffs & friendly

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

#crew96 are exhausted and it's showing. 48 matches in 47 weeks is a lot

@1ThomasCostello Gus rules

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

@1ThomasCostello It’s also going to be an expensive use of tax dollars (so will the stadium but we all know that).

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

Nobody asked for my opinion but I think the City of Cleveland threatening a Modell Law suit is a net negative and incredibly short-sighted. My opinion has always been that the law is not likely to be enforceable. One of the big wins in the #Crew96 case was no actual opinion on it

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

Let’s be real. The purpose of the law is not to prevent a team from moving to another town in the same county.

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

CLE risks getting an opinion on the books on the (un)enforceability of the law when the law’s real/current value is in its tool as a tactic to delay movement and let other buyers jump in. If that goes away, yeah

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

#Crew96 spending is up $2 million since the May salary release.

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

Really have no opinion on this positive or negative. In 2023, #Crew96's season overlapped with every Ohio State game that wasn't a bowl game. That wouldn't change under this model. The bigger issue for me is where will cut time. The 2024 MLS season will be 46 weeks long.

[Paul Tenorio @PaulTenorio]

MLS is considering moving to a fall-spring calendar, potentially as soon as 2026.

Still being discussed and studied at multiple levels.

@tombogert @schudel_ralph lol come on Tom

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

Maybe American Outlaws can put out another very serious letter #usmnt

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

And AZ gets the assist. He's looked FEISTY today. Love to see it.

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

Really like to see AZ getting the start. After getting the incredibly short leash last week to get a start shows he took the week seriously and listened to Nancy’s coaching. #crew96

[Massive Report @MassiveReport]

Tonight's #Crew96 Starting XI

[Collin Johnson @CollinJohnson]

I'm glad Caleb Porter is the visiting manager for tonight's Save the Crew anniversary. Porter took a lot of deserved flack during the end of his time with #Crew96 but his work to repair/rebuild the club after the fans saved it will go down in history. Thank you Caleb!
