Didn’t even realize that was something they could disallow a goal for. Wonder how many bangers since the rule change should have been chalked off for that

Sorto’s Revenge Tour might be a thing.

He’s been brilliant tonight and now a brace to show for it

@philtalksfooty.bsky.social, I may have found an explanation for the 'LADS protocol', Loudoun and Hartford have seemingly swapped fortunes after Hartford's win over Loudoun on June 20th.

And Freakier Friday just released 👀

Christian Sorto just hit an absolute banger and I’m ngl he has looked like an inspired signing for Locomotive

They need another attacker desperately but wow

USL Moments that Precede Unfortunate Events

Yo the hype video that just ran at HT of Miami-El Paso for the USL2 final for @vermontgreenfc.bsky.social was the best piece of content the League has ever produced. Period. I have absolute chills

My daughter chose to wear her new @heartsofpine.bsky.social merch out in Toledo

Fully expect Locomotive to lose their heads over beating this Vegas side who are an absolute mess

Andrew Forrest, El Paso Locomotive’s GM - Business and Technical Operations, talking on the team’s stream about how poor last season was:

University of Vermont, 2024 Division 1 National Champions

Vermont Green, 2025 USL League 2 National Champions

Max Kissel scored the winning goal in both games! Golden goal in the NCAA final, stoppage time winner in USLL2 final. What a story.

Burlington, Vermont is a certified soccer town.

VERMONT GREEN

OH MY GOD

Not to be weird but why is the trans flag covered with a US Soccer flag in the Vermont Green stands? 🧐

This is just one of those strikes any player dreams about and it kind of sums up Tulsa’s whole vibe right now

7 points ahead of Indy and the XI have 2 games in hand 😬

Tulsa is really good right now but the LADS protocol is officially in effect.

Insane fumble from SD. The Loyal did not die for this

Ok let’s break up the Doom.

Give me 5 albums you consider 10/10. No skips. No notes. Perfection.

1. Plagues - The Devil Wears Prada

2. Downtown Battle Mountain - Dance Gavin Dance

3. When We Don’t Exist - Like Moths to Flames

4. ERRA - ERRA

5. Periphery III: Select Difficulty - Periphery

I had the pleasure of chatting with the fine folks from the Dirigo Union podcast and I am not exaggerating when I say it’s by far the most scenic place I’ve ever recorded a podcast.

YouTube video by Dirigo Union Episode 17: The Yinzers Taste Defeat

@philtalksfooty.bsky.social from @theuslshow.bsky.social talk with @dirigounion.bsky.social about the @heartsofpine.bsky.social wrapping up the group stage against the Pittsburgh Riverhounds in Jägermeister Cup competition. Phil also gave his take on Portland and the club.

That does suck, would have been awesome

VERMONT GREEN IN THE 2 FINALS

ABSOLUTE SCENES

Pens in Vermont and I am *sweating*

F1 just not driving in the rain for McLaren

Honestly still getting goosebumps from the pre-match “Ballad of the 20th Maine” song for @heartsofpine.bsky.social @theuslshow.bsky.social

Safe to say Jäegers are being Meistered right now

People talk about Monaco and the Indy 500 being the same weekend but in terms of tracks is Spa and Laguna Seca the best pairing of Motorsport of the whole year
