Oscar Perea did not survive the thrashing at Yankee Stadium last weekend.

No MLS playoffs for club before he arrived, nothing but MLS postseason appearances since he arrived.

One of the many reasons I respect #NYCFC's Pascal Jansen is his diverse approach to study & observation.

It's safe to say that the Oliver Gage approach is data driven.

The former Houston Dynamo analyst now in his 1st year as Sporting Director for Ft. Wayne in USL.

Derrick Jones and Yaw Yeboah receive lifetime bans from MLS:

"MLS concluded that the players engaged in extensive gambling on soccer, including on their own teams. In one instance, both players bet on Jones to draw a yellow card during a 10/19/24 match, which he received."

MLS personified.

The Philadelphia Union lost at home to San Jose, 0-1.

It's their 2nd home loss - 1 more home loss than a season ago when #DOOP won the Supporters Shield.

Now 0-3 to open '26.
