Opinions are my own when they aren't terrible. Otherwise, they're yours.

Some very happy personal news: I’ve just signed a long-term contract with The Athletic and will be sticking around for a few more years. 🙌

I’m looking forward to bringing you even more of the dumbest shit in American soccer, whether you ask me to or not. ✨

@auderdy This bad info goes around every spring. Sarah's thread was linked later in that same article:

@SwiftOnSecurity Close. The existential druids once summoned the great computational root to gift sand with the power of confusion. We must honor its sacrifice or lose the ability to curse at a glowing rectangle in the dead of night.

@senatorshoshana Unfortunately, not an easy problem to solve with existing tools. If you have the time to fight with a python script or jupyter notebook, you could trade some sanity for a parsing tool. Lots of PDFs generated with the same tool and template can get processed fast.

@cc_fla Had an electric (EGO brand) mower and trimmer that worked great. Same battery used for both and I was able to mow/trim on one charge. That was over 5 years ago, so I'm sure the newer models are improving.

@JackLebourdais @grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 "Gregg is like the leak that sinks the ship"
"lack of attacking play"
So, is he some horrifically terrible manager that destroys teams or a good manager that doesn't play the exact perfect style you want?

[Chad Kunde @kunde21]

@JackLebourdais @grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 Hammarby -
Before: Barely missed relegation
After: Just outside of Promotion (twice)
Crew -
Before: Missed playoffs twice in a row
After: Two consecutive playoffs, second going to MLS Cup

That's what you call a "leak that sinks ships" manager?

@grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 A striker that's not been scoring regularly
and doesn't help create wasn't in the WCQ squad. Yeah, that's how it's supposed to be when there's competition for the spot. Are you upset about his absence or happy about the competition that can push him to be better?

[Chad Kunde @kunde21]

@grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 "got fired in Europe in the first few months" is a very odd way to describe a season and a half as one of the first Americans to manage in Europe.
If memory serves, they were about mid-table at the time. European coaches get *hired* for that sort of performance.

[Chad Kunde @kunde21]

@grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 Proper academies have replaced the dependence on ODP camps and scouts? Are you celebrating that because it's more like European academy system?

[Chad Kunde @kunde21]

@grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 You have to dig as deep as Konrad to lodge a complaint? That's supposed to be the great accusation against MLS? I'll leave you to think about that.
Yes, Dest has a lot of trouble adjusting from La Liga to CONCACAF. If you're trying to give evidence to my point, I welcome it.

[Chad Kunde @kunde21]

@grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 Klinsman wasn't a youth coach and had no power over MLS academies. Not only did the likes of FCD not so much as flinch during his tenure, the youth teams performed an amazing faceplant in those WCQ, too.

[Chad Kunde @kunde21]

@grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 MLS (not *the* MLS) is different from the European leagues. If it wasn't, why would players work to move to Europe? Each league feeds its own play style, which has an influence on the style of play seen in WCQ. MLS and LigaMX influence CONCACAF. Ignoring that leads to failure.

[Chad Kunde @kunde21]

@grruser89 @wickedcul @MattDoyle76 Can't stop scoring? Prefolk finally *started* scoring again! You're ready to toss the guy that helped the line to two trophies this summer? Talk about messed up mindset. Play the best 11 *TO BEAT YOUR OPPONENT* not just feed your ego....Klinsmann could have taught you that.
