Also literally everyone knows there is a big break coming at the end of May, and many are treating it like two half seasons.

Never change, Mikel.

Leaving Roldan free on the back post twice on corners seems like something the SKC defense would do.

I was wondering how long it would take teams to overwhelm the press-baiting tactics SD uses.

Granted “better team” is obviously relative 😂

Really happy for Salloi. His talents deserved a better team than KC had to offer.

Talk about hitting it pure. Take a bow Xavi.

I liked it a lot better when SKC were just normal bad and most people didn’t pay attention, instead of being so historically bad people can’t stop talking about it.

It was funny to see the line given the source, but he's 100% right. The sickest among us when it comes to MLS roster rules are generally the biggest proponents of simplifying them.

Huge thanks to Joe for giving a platform for this.

If you are an avid listener of the pod, you've probably heard us moan about a lot of the topics here, but I thought it would be good to put the whole timeline together.

That is what I assumed.

Looks like they can choose between a wider pitch config or a longer one. It made for some funny stuff on corner kicks, I kept hoping someone would use the wrong corner.

I've reached the point of defiance. I refuse to let this team break me.

Kayla Sharples is a prime example of this. There is no way Caddix has the financial strength to pay NWSL to be on this list, even though what they are doing is probably some of the more important work to curb knee injuries in women's soccer.

For a significant number of these people, the Catholic church is "where the brown people go".

This should be a stark reminder that white evangelicals are not Catholic. There is a reason they have no concern saying shit like this publicly, because they look down on Catholics.

Also, over 40% of Catholics in the US are immigrants. Which should also be telling.

The problem is non-tech people use it incorrectly often.

Compute is a noun in the tech world, because it’s a defined asset(ie how much computing power you have). It’s permeated the discussion because it’s all tech execs talking about AI and their internal language coming out in statements.

Obviously a bit of a colloquialism/slang but it’s common jargon.
