If I owned a professional sports team I would pay someone to make sure the players get home safely after a night out. The players clearly can't use common sense.

I'm a little surprised MLS doesn't already do this for it's younger players. The older guys, and anyone coming over from Europe, aren't going to be much trouble in this regard, but the homegrown guys? Gotta keep better tabs on them.

This dashcam video of Cyle Larin's arrest (via TMZ) is really something.

Before, I thought that CSA should, but wouldn't, suspend him for the Gold Cup, but now that this video is out, it's definitely going to happen.

Well, there goes Canada (and Orlando's season).

Hey, Canada still has goal scoring machine Anthony Jackson-Hamel!

Orlando on the other hand will probably have to play Rivas and Barnes together up front, which doesn't sound like a recipe for success, to put it lightly.

Herculez Gomez: Andres Guardado to play for LAFC next year; 4 year deal per John Sutcliffe of Futbol Picante.

 

[Gamecocks625]

Yes. Yeeeeessss

Was really hoping my first ATL game was there

Erik Palmer-Brown linked with a lot of big clubs. Ajax are apparently the favorite but he's also being linked with Man City, PSG, Chelsea, PSV, Porto and Betis.

I'm pulling for Ajax. Going to City, PSG or Chelsea would suck.

EDIT: That leaked USMNT jersey looks fucking awful.

If he went to City, he'd get loaned out to one of the City affiliate loan clubs in Europe: NAC Breda (Eredivisie like Vitesse) or Girona (La Liga this season for the first time in their ~75 year history). Ajax have a few very, very talented young CBs but they get sold regularly so he could take over in time. Wouldn't depose De Ligt or Davinson Sanchez at the moment though. Sanchez will get snatched up by someone soon but they also have Jairo Riedewald who is very promising.

Sheanon Williams (Vancouver Whitecaps) has been arrested in connection with a domestic assault. He's also been suspended by MLS, and will undergo the SABH program.

Jeez not a good week for MLS and the law

How soon is the new ATL stadium opening??? Looks like it's almost done, can't wait for them to get a friday/saturday night FS1 game on TV so I can check it out.

Where's that? Can't seem to find it.

First event is Falcons preseason game on August 26th

First match for Atlanta United is on September 10th versus FC Dallas

USMNT 2017 trainer kit leaked

I actually dig that. It'll be good with the Waldo kits in the stands.

love the drumline in Orlando

VILLALBA!

ALMIRON!

JOSEF FUCKING MARTINEZ!!!!!!

Martinez is fucking BACK. Fantastic finish.

How does the ref not call that handball? Unlucky for TFC.

 

[zroid]

Jozy 🙇🏽🙇🏽🙇🏽

 

[zroid]

yellows for everyone!

 

[Askani]

What a horseshit foul call on Dwyer. Absolute garbage.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

What is up with the west this year? They are usually so strong.

 

[Dr Campino]

Still numero uno!

 

[Askani]

Terrible. Ref stole two points tonight.

 

[Chris R]

Poor Portland

 

[Cystm]

Gordo!

 

[ZZMitch]

Death, Taxes and late game Alan Gordon goals.

 

[Icolin]

Beautiful goal by Techera.

EDIT: I'll take a draw against FC Dallas any day of the week, doubly so when the Whitecaps are as depleted as they are. Good defensive performance, but a lacklustre offensive performance; today showed just how crucial Christian Bolanos is to the offense.

Oh, and Alphonso Davies was fantastic once again. This kid is something special.

 

[Gamecocks625]

Atlanta United game was so fun tonight. Crowd was awesome.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

Idk if I'd rather be hot like this or dealing with dead of winter matches right now

Why can't this have been on fox and been a 7 start

 

[Dartastic]

Poor Portland

Death, Taxes and late game Alan Gordon goals.

Sigh. Genuinely mad at the team for last night's performance. They need to get their shit sorted and Gleeson needs to sit. That error to gift Colorado their first goal is inexcusable.

Also those Gold Cup jerseys are so good. Can't wait to buy one.

 

[Chris R]

Oh, and Portland 2nd half tickets are on sale, can't wait to check out the stadium in two months time.

 

[B-Dubs]

BWP can only be kept down for so long. The man is going to feast on NYCFC.

Also, I want to say I think Veron needs more minutes. He should be given a month's worth of starts and if he can't keep performing then get someone new, but he should be given the chance because when he plays he usually does well.

The stadium erupted when he came on as a sub

we still garbage

 

[Cornballer]

The Quakes anemic offense reared its head again on Saturday. There really wasn't any danger for SKC most of the game. The injuries need to chill out for a while, and the Quakes definitely need a DP chance creator or finisher sooner rather than later. The management claims that there's someone who will be signed before the end of the month. We shall see...

[B-Dubs]

That Gold Cup kit isn't bad. It reminds me of the Centennial (aka the GOAT), only with a slightly worse color scheme.

 

[Cornballer]

I'm not a huge fan of the stars, but maybe it'll look better in-game. Hoops are fine. My overall beef with the US kit designs is that they keep on doing different stuff. Just find one thematic idea (hoops, sash, whatever) and stick with it.

 

[B-Dubs]

I wish we had just stuck with the Centennial.

I wish we had just stuck with the Centennial.

The crest, too. *sighs*

You mean the Where's Waldo kit?

The Centennial was this one:

 

[Dartastic]

I'm kinda genuinely surprised that you guys aren't digging this more. It looks so good IMO. Around when do we expect these to go on sale? I need one.

 

[Icolin]

Atiba Hutchinson to Whitecaps rumors heating up again. Sources in Turkey are saying that the Whitecaps, with the help of MLS, have offered Beskitas a 5 million dollar transfer fee for Hutchinson.

 

[Dr Campino]

Yeah I really like that US jersey.

Id be really into that without the stars on the shoulders.
