@KevinChewy @statesman Actually a person hit by a human driven SUV and pushed into a Waymo. The Waymo had stopped for the pedestrian and the driver didn’t. The headline is highly deceptive.

@MLS is a joke of a league. Like watching WWE

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@nmrodrigz @PROreferees Nah he did exactly what the league told him to do.

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@AustinFC Yeah more like 2-1-1 (last by the ref)

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

Hey @MLS it’s so clear your ref in AUS v HOU is calling the game to help HOU. Why can’t you just allow sport?

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@katieporteroc @flowinguphill This is literally what every politician has done for decades. I’m quite sure you have done it as well.

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@AaronMandell That seems right. I was also working on a project in the Central Valley just after, and local agencies just could not make a final decision to take action and agree to build something. Californians, and Americans I’m afraid, have just become afraid of doing something.

Hey ⁦@CNN⁩ how about when you write an article supposedly based on a report, you link to the report https://t.co/er7RZhAJ2u

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@KUT The map in the study itself shows the areas of “rental desert” being large areas of single family homes fairly far from the city center. The city proper is fairly mixed. Few services or transport options that far out and seems normal for a growing metro area.

@AustinFC @Lexus Would have been better than the roll over and die strategy #WolffOut employed

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@AustinFC @Lexus Perhaps this strategy will work https://t.co/rW1yq9eU4L

@AustinFC #WolffOut just can’t help but give away the lead with dumb subs, as always

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@utdksu01 @VanillaMX17 It would have been better to leave Rubio and Obrian on. Let them fight for 90 minutes. Or use the chance to give young guys experience building for the future, a la Farkarlun, Garcia, Garcia, Pineau. But to just give up so clearly is unsporting.

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@utdksu01 @VanillaMX17 I agree Stu and Owen are. Dani was highly rated before arriving and Gallagher also a solid performer. In any case, even four would be a short list out of all AFC players. Think about Guardiola or other top quality managers. They make almost everyone better.

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@utdksu01 @VanillaMX17 And remember Wolff has been the manager for all four years. The roster is his. Can we name a single player that we would say has gotten better since working for Wolff? Pretty much all are worse now than when arriving. Basic test of manager.

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@AustinFC Actually pretty clear that Wolff gave up and told the team the same

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@philwest The only team worse than Austin this year is the Refs. Consistently horrible every game. MLS needs to fire them all.

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@Fuchodellano @AustinFC @Q2Stadium Not Rigoni. Needed to get rid of Wolff!

[Wes Strickland @PrivateWaterLaw]

@AustinFC @Q2Stadium Absolutely embarrassing. Low energy throughout. Especially bad when Wolff subbed in the 0-goals “striker” in 73rd minute essentially telling the guys to give up. Clear that Wolff has no idea of a plan.
