A serious football club wanting to be a perennial playoff team and win a second MLS Cup wouldn’t just run it back with this FO.

Programming note: I’ll be in South Bend, Indiana tomorrow. Got tickets to Miami-Notre Dame months ago before I knew Decision Day would be decisive for the Rapids. @shaw_eamon will be running @BurgundyWave.
Hoping Pids qualify and Canes don’t get smoked.

I spoke to Joe Shaw about his book, Miami Before Messi, a history of the Miami Fusion. Even found a way to connect it back to the Rapids. A butterfly flapped its wings at Lockhart Stadium and Pablo Mastroeni went from almost undrafted to Rapids captain.

I’ve always waited till after Decision Day to submit my ballot. I’ve never understood voters, some of them prominent and national, that vote with 2-3 match days left in the MLS season.
Voting for MLS end of season awards officially opened today... and I IMPLORE anyone else with an official ballot to wait until, you know, all of the games have been played to submit your ballot.
This is my uninteresting PSA. Thank you.

Most MLS markets don’t have a big enough/engaged enough fan bases to support said coverage. I’ve seen plenty of Rapids fans comment wanting more/better content. Many of those people then complain when a Rapids Denver Post article is behind a paywall. We are Volunteer Media.
Take it up with Don Garber, local newspapers, and the large swaths of the public who want to consume journalism/think they’re entitled to it but don’t want to pay for it.

The Rapids Zoom call after Portland on Saturday was just me and @shaw_eamon. Plenty of MLS road press conferences are 2-5 indie journos. Miami’s had plenty happen that’s made covering the club more difficult, regardless of the language of the coverage.
“There’s no one here again.”
Those were the first words out of Kily Gonzalez’s mouth as he sat down for his post-game press conference after #InterMiamiCF’s 2-0 win vs New York City FC.
A pretty damning remark about the media coverage of a team with Lionel Messi on it. #Messi
Really hope this doesn’t kill Indy Eleven. Hope it’s more like Cincy than San Diego.
Commissioner Garber Statement About Meeting with Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett:
"I recently met with Mayor Hogsett to continue discussions about Indianapolis' efforts to develop a new soccer-first stadium as part of the city's vision for Major League Soccer. I was encouraged by our conversation and appreciate the mayor’s leadership and commitment to pursuing a team for Indianapolis. The city has established itself as one of America's great sports cities, with a strong track record of hosting major events and a growing passion for soccer. We look forward to continuing our conversations as the city's plans continue to take shape."

Shameless plug: My Engineers Without Borders project is set to travel in 2027. I'm going back to Tanzania to build a teacher's office at the same school. We have a wine tasting and auction fundraiser on Friday. Donations welcome. We need $5K.
