Club Roster Profiles_Feb 2026.pdf | Powered by Box

Roster profiles dropped. #DCU is on the U-22 Initiative model. This nets them an extra $1 million in GAM. They can switch in the summer, which I would expect them to do. Kim still occupies a U-22 slot so it looks like his loan didn't cover enough to free.

Jon & Ted drove up from Fredericksburg for the home opener and recorded the whole day β€” I-95, the concourse, the stands, the Metro home with 3 pts in their pocket.

I was going to bring the Saint Paul Liberation Front flag to the Loons game tomorrow but was told it was banned for being β€œdivisive.” It is β€œpolitical” and β€œviolent.”

ISRAEL ATTACKS IRAN; US OFFICIAL SAYS US TOOK PART IN STRIKES Multiple explosions heard in Tehran, elsewhere, as Israel launches attacks on Iran with US help.

Of the many theoretical explanations and rational debates of this US/Israeli strike on Iran, has anyone considered the possibility that nobody knows what the f*** they're doing

Spurs went from title favourites to relegation contenders in 10 years. What did they do wrong? This time 10 years ago, Spurs were on top of the world β€” so how have they fallen so far in the decade since?

10 years ago today it felt like Tottenham could win the title.

What happened to them?

D.C. United CSO Sogut on new culture, transfer window Sogut: "It's not about bringing a DP or non-DP or Under-22 Initiative [player]. It's about finding the right player."

πŸš† New at Green Line Soccer πŸš†

Shortly after D.C. United opened the season with a 1-0 win, Dr. Erkut Sogut chatted with media about the still-open transfer window and the new culture DCU needs to build.

For paid subscribers, some context & quotes from Sogut:

Maybe he realizes that he has to also ignore the United States and Israel. Maybe it’s because Ukraine is also rotten, a corrupt country with a serious white nationalist problem that’s been completely whitewashed from the news. Russia was wrong to invade, they’re not angels, but neither is NATO & EU.

We polled 22 MLS soccer execs on the league's best ... including best/worst facilities.

"Their field is a disgrace," one GM said of an MLS venue. "It’s not at our level.”

Who had the best value contract? Sebastian Berhalter, per execs

From the Athletic’s MLS survey, D.C. United’s Audi Field is the worst of the soccer-specific stadiums and its training facility ranks low (though not the lowest, which is a bit surprising given its size, location, overuse and general cheapness).

"General cheapness" gave me a hearty chuckle this morning.

Thanks, Goff.

When I was terminated from DC101, the station put @mikejonesradio.bsky.social in the difficult spot of continuing my work with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

He did it wonderfully. We can appreciate one without tearing down the other.

Audi Field and all the Loudoun facilities scream cheapness, poor planning, and lack of professional pride. They’re exhibits A & B in a long list of reasons MLS should force Levien & Kaplan to sell the team. Expansion is not in the immediate future for MLS. They should demand better of current teams

The USL is desperate to enact pro/rel to grow its fanbase, but the league office offers little support to its clubs once the expansion checks clear. No revenue sharing, and an average of two clubs folding each offseason for a decade.

So cynical to drop this update 2-3 weeks before kickoff.

DC spent a lot on strikers, but... I wouldn't hate bringing in Ramirez either.

Hefti starts, Louis is on the bench with Pirani as the second striker. Having your record breaking striker come off the bench is interesting #DCU

It's a season preview, it's a depth chart, and it's a monster.
