That reminds me that I need to break out the Saint Lucia kit for some game this season (hopefully one where he's in the gameday squad)

I forgot about Phillip in my list of internationals. So we have 7 for 6 slots, assuming no more green cards. Almost certain Fadal will be on loan to R2 then.

This is the org that can't control a block of in MN without the local citizens chasing them out (eventually) and Bannon is trying to threaten us with them controlling dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of polling sites? Fat chance. This is a scare tactic, people should stop giving it power.

Based on the injury news out of practice its trending that way

I wasn't sure where I was going to rank it, but your #1 was the moment that came to my mind when I started thinking about top moments

We want as many ICE agents as possible at as many sites as possible in California and Colorado. Pour it on!

(California and Colorado are vote-by-mail states so the more ICE agents wasting their time at barely used polling locations in those states the less they'll be in other states)

Are you concerned that the league may be splitting into "haves" and "have-nots" and if so, should that be addressed or is that where the league has to go?

What's your thought about intra-MLS U-22 signings? I know KDP is one of your players to watch, but he is taking a Rapids U-22 slot from somebody from their academy instead.

So San Diego, who hasn't yet started its 2nd league season of existence, is a heavy favorite to do something Colorado hasn't done in 30 years of existence. Advance past the first round of CCL/CCC

MLS teams are 34-2 when going into the away leg with a multi-goal lead since CCL changed formats in '08

Everybody Wants to Rule the World is the first one that came to mind for me too. I don't know if its my number 1, but nothing else is jumping to mind at the moment.

I’ve been to Wonderland a couple of times, it was a happy hour spot for my current company and the last one. Decent food as far as breweries go but other than that it’s just the same as 4 Noses or Westminster Brewing or any of the others.

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.

The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.
