After watching all #UpTheHearts '26 Matches twice, hearing the rumors of new VIP Seats in front of the SG sections at Fitzy & wondering about the state of our team on my latest #FallenLeavesPod recording...
I had to make a meme.

FT of my re-watch of #SARvPOR. 1-0.
To be frank ... an old man who lost his wooden teeth has more bite, than our #UpTheHearts have currently.
ZERO shots on target, many slip ups which Sarasota used and still only one game where we scored goals.
Yikes!
#UpTheHearts [@hearts_sc] - Fam!
Our Azaad Liadi had a brace against Worcestershire SC and was named USL L1 Player of the Week! Enjoy!

FT at #SARvPOR. 1-0.
Yeah, it's easier to say what went good, than wat currently goes wrong with our #UpTheHearts.
A lucky deflection brings Sarasota their first L1 win, but even outside of that, they were the better team, while we looked quite lost.
Huck was decent tho.
Zero shots on target through 85' for #UpTheHearts. This team is much less impressive than last year's, so far.
Sarasota has a player named MAXIMUS TAINIO. The announcer pronounces that last name Tiny-o. What an absolutely incredible name. #UpTheHearts
I'd sell my liver, if that means ... that our #UpTheHearts would have Injury Reports before matches.
Witout that, it's just guessing and the mood of many is not good. #SARvPOR
Whatever happened to our team, needs to stop.
Is it a sickness? Is it a coaching problem? Are it visa-issues?
Our team looks off since game one and they look completely bamboozled, like they never kicked a ball together.

It will be the shortest ever regular season episode, but with all you need: #AVvPOR Recap, Sarasota-Preview, Rants, much finesse & dribble dribble!
👋 @dave27.bsky.social
It's time for the weekly chore, of re-watching the latest #UpTheHearts game, so I can record a good #FallenLeavesPod recap.
Today: #AVvPOR aka the Kash Oladapo Save Festival.
Wish me luck: 👋 @tmclaughlin79.bsky.social @oldboot.bsky.social @smilingstrange.bsky.social

First game of '26 by Mikey Lopez ... got two yellows and was just sent off. That's so Mikey!
He really has a stamp card, right? "For every ten yellows, he gets a free lobster roll" or similar.
Poor Mikey! #AVvPOR #UpTheHearts
👋 @kaylorhodges.bsky.social
#AVvPOR half 1 was ... tense.
Like: "Being in your teen years and meeting your girlfriends dad on the floor, two minutes after having sex with his daughter." kind of tense.
A Fist fight on the pitch is quite likely. #UpTheHearts
USL Broadcast Quality is a fascinating topic.
#NYCvPOR: Piss poor and barely any zoom-ins
#AVvPOR: great picture quality but mostly just zoomed in ... and a baseball knowing PxP who tries to talk soccer.
Fascinating. #UpTheHearts
Thought:
Our Starting XI of this year bamboozle me.
Instead of rotating against Vermont, we play a heavy core - which plays bad - now we have Kash in goal, who could've played at Vermont.
Not easy to see an idea behind our building, tho.
#AVvPOR #UpTheHearts
Sunday. Past 3:30AM. Time for my #UpTheHearts.
Not sure why I'm doing this, as if Vermont didn't trouble me enough for a week ... but as my doctor's already worrying about the health of my Heart: why not?
Let's get that win at #AVvPOR and come back to winning decency! #UTFH♥️🌲
The @heartsofpine.bsky.social just announced their Starting XI for #AVvPOR.
With Kash & Mikey are two players giving their '26 Season debut. Besides that, many returnees from the failed match at Vermont.
What do you think, #UpTheHearts - Fam?

I'm so happy, that my #UpTheHearts are NOT the only L1 team anymore, who got kicked out of the #USOC2026.
Thanks to all AV Alta & Greenville Triumph fans like @giocanas10.bsky.social / @gvlgoals.bsky.social to share the pain with us!
A little bit of pain for everyone!
#UpTheHearts - Fam: we know that kid!
Which also means, Southern's scored more goals in this #USOC2026, than his former team combined.

I have #UpTheHearts questions about #VGFvPOR, regarding subs & performance
- Was the team sick [as rumors had it]?
- How healthy were the players, if Emi got just 20 minutes?
- Did we underestimate Vermont or thought we could win it with just 70%?
- Why did JT start?
#USOC2026
FT at #VGFvPOR. 1-0
Vermont was the better team. Period.
Outside of the last 20 minutes, after vital subs, Vermont overrun our defense, looked more solid with their passes and had 5-0 shots on target in the 1st half.
A tough awakening for the #UpTheHearts but not the end!
Absolutely miserable performance from #UpTheHearts. Congrats to Vermont, who played hard for all 90. The only team on the field for long stretches.
Year two is gonna be a test. Let's go, Hearts.
Pretty awful showing so far from #UpTheHearts. A lot of faces I don't feel like I remember; am I forgetting, is this a B squad, or is the team still jelling?
