Soccer 'Murica

The world plays football, but 'Muricans play soccer. It's like hockey but using your legs, on grass, and without pads.

I talk about Soccer. And 'Murica.

Blocked Elon Musk today. Makes Twitter at least palatable to not see all the far-right liars he promotes with his replies.

@kendallbaker @washingtonpost Top and bottom (LAFC/VGK/Nashville on top, FC Cincy on bottom), show the difference a small sample size makes.

On the other hand, the Canadiens are the oldest club in the top 10, by a pretty wide margin, so...damn.

UPDATE: Called @AppleSupport to get the $150 charge removed. Was told it was an error and they’d take care of it…but guess what?

They just charged me ANOTHER $150.

This is a movie script at this point - not sure if comedy or horror.

Dear @SoundersFC - why do you insist on using email titles for your STM emails that do not reflect the most important items (to STMs) within? (This is not the first time.)

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

@https_500 @JeremiahOshan Personally, I'd like to know why some people have been so fixated on a player from whom they were told repeatedly not to expect much.

Did you know that at @Mariners games, “betting-related abusive language will not be tolerated”?

@MLB has changed, and not just in ways where they “speed up” games by encouraging more hitting. #TEXvsSEA

@SeattleKraken 🍩-O

@Mariners @jp_crawford In Seattle, we call that "the Clint Dempsey."

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

@TootyKorn2 @SoundersFC And they say Twitter is a cesspool.

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

@JeremiahOshan @KingBraxx Just a cursory glance suggests it’s a case of one of many financial institutions in the 20th century using “first” in their names. It’s also a locally-based business for SLC. No management-related controversies I can see.

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

@KingBraxx @JeremiahOshan So the *look* is the problem here?

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

@EightyJ @JeremiahOshan Which conveniently brings us back to credit unions > mining companies.

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

@EightyJ @JeremiahOshan True, but those are better coming from companies who don’t have a massacre named after them.

Looks like the Hawk’s Nest bar will be open for the first time at @LumenField for #SEAvATX. #ebfg

@hatbacksea @SoundersFC I did - at 4 pm precisely fans were being allowed in one group at a time at approximately one minute intervals to a basically empty restaurant. Decided not to wait 20+ minutes for a table and went down the street.

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

@richmanLast @SoundersFC They mean “even after losing a match where they were the better team”…

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

Basically a place like @hatbacksea needs to understand it’s not a destination, it’s a way stop before an event. Get ‘em in, get ‘em watered and fed, and move ‘em out.

[Soccer 'Murica @SoccerMurca]

Was hoping to get into the @hatbacksea before the Sounders match. Upon opening they were letting in one party every minute or two. 20+ minutes to get into an empty restaurant?

Left and got immediate seats at The Gantry, plus cheaper prices.

I’m hoping Vela and Chicharito boss the #MLSAllStar game, and all the Mexican MNT fans riot.
