Leagues cup teams announced. Stl not participating. Sucks. That means Messi will never come to this shit hole. 15 years and I never missed a single game. Not one. I really wanted a pic of him with my minion. Big bucket list

Go see him in another city. Fun trip.
- February 14, 2025: Inter Miami vs. Orlando City SC in Tampa, Florida
Going 7/26 with friends in Miami but I can’t take my minion. Too much. He’d be a mess. Here I can get him on the field.
You always hear in sports how the big markets dominate but nothing compares to mls how some cities get shit on
There are costs associated with living in St. Louis, my friend. Many, many costs.
Any of you guys ever attend a World Cup game here in the US or abroad?
In 1994 my brother and I drove to Detroit to see the USA vs Switzerland. We tied that game. I’ll never forget the night before we were sitting in our room watching the OJ Simpson Bronco chase.
We also went down to either Orlando or Tampa to see the Netherlands vs Ireland. I think it was a quarter final game.

That’s awesome!!! What a memorable weekend.
Coolest thing I did was stand on the field with Real Madrid. They played one of those summer tour games and a connected buddy got us into their closed practice at Slu. It was surreal seeing all those guys a foot away on a field we had all played on a thousand times. I mean we were right on the field. Feet away. Shaking hands. President of real gave us a real pen out of his pocket. Then Ronaldo and kaka walked up on the bleachers to look at the city. Just interacting with the 20 or so of us randos there.
As an aside the summer of 09 real signed benzema, kaka, and Ronaldo. Insane to think about. All three won ballon dors
@mcmurtry66 What the hell happened at the SLU basketball game last night? Was that you in the crowd?
@Mark Milton I’ve gone down a hole speaking of transfers. This is insane. The lower tier teams in la liga have total payrolls congruent with middle of the road to lower level mls teams! And they have to play the biggest club in the world
Bitch I’m driving listening to local radio bitch about Dewitt bc we don’t have enough money for the cardinals to compete. Please. Americans have no idea.
I hate Americans
Gunners!!!!!!!!!
No Rodri is such a difference. Pep just hasn't adjusted to not having a stud 6 on the field. And without the ball, they are just not good enough to regularly beat the good teams
I’m at the zoo. Definitely will watch it later. But you’re spot on. Pep’s system is perfection but it requires perfect pieces and a check book. He had that greatest gen ever and even a few before that could play like that at Barca. Deco etc. but boy without the ball you nailed it. Once these guys hit their 30s forget it. Just don’t have the legs. I’m really hoping Messi hangs it up this year. I don’t have the heart to watch him get chased down by a 20 yr old from Marshall University on a homegrown k 🤣
Such a fun match between RM and Man City today. Honestly thought City played well enough to win, but Vini is a problem.
It’s nuts to think that Brazil has Rodrygo, Vini and Raphiniha on the same squad and still probably won’t win it all.

We used to love the Penguin exhibit at the St. Louis zoo. That is where you are right? We lived near the Loop for 4 years across from Forest Park.
Those spot on passes he makes with the outside of his foot, smh. My coaches would have ripped me a new one if I ever tried that stunt.
I mean, watching City lose it in stoppage time NEVER GETS OLD for this guy.
Big Fred fan. That little shit could wake up, start running, run 50 miles and then play a game.
Amazing engine. Brazilian mini flare. Just too small to be a 6 and not quite technical enough to be an 8.
Honestly, I think he should have been a LB.
that's the problem with american coaches. Never let the players have that creative freedom that europe and and american players are allowed to have. The clunky american touch prevails again!
My college buddies and I always joke that xavi and iniesta couldn’t have made a single ACC roster
So so true per usual MM. I’ll never forget in college we showed up to play at William and Mary. There the day before and my jaw dropped. The field was turf. We didn’t even know. I began tearing up.
We all went to the mall to buy flats. Get back on the bus and I shouted IM GOING TO PUT ON AN EXHIBITION LIKE YOU CONES HAVE NEVER SEEN IN YOUR LIFE!!!
Midwest. Played indoor constantly. So we get out to warmup and coach who was like the great santini comes running over screaming at me. You put your foot on top of the ball one time you’ll sit the entire game.
Ref blows the whistle. Forward kicks off straight back to me. I settle it under my foot. First touch of the game SUB!!!! SUB!!!! SUB YOU STUPID SONOFABITCH!!!
sat the entire game. I wanted to slow that game down to a crawl with that ball under my foot. But no. He wanted to play like a spazz. 1000 miles an hour
With all these ferners I do believe it’s improving tho w/ re to coaching
He got into a big fight with Chris Albright after break. He even wrote to the owner and the owner didn’t back him!
