Designed-in car dependency, surging car prices, longer loan periods with more interest.

Sound like “freedom” to you?

What effects do you think USL getting a Private Equity funding boost will have on the leagues?

No way Americans would ever invest in soccer clubs that have the risk of relegation... or something.

Some good games on that list.

That looks fun!

So what soccer game are we looking forward to the most this weekend?

That Tulsa v Monterey Bay game was quite entertaining.

USL Championship is a fun league to watch.

Silicon Valley's Push Into Transportation Has Been a Miserable Failure The titans of tech brought plenty of disruption to our broken transportation system but delivered little in the way of innovation.

He’s always been this way.

Hey Charleston if you are up... we are meeting up at Cato Park this morning to play.

Come join us. All ages. Free.

Why not?

US Soccer would have to be in control... so.

All female referee class at the Soccer SIS girls camp (that had 300+ girls!!!) this week. First time WVSA has hosted an all girls/womens referee course.

Super excited to see this happen!

With the PLS still existing in their current form... with NISA Nation and the Independents Cup existing.

If ran well.. it can be a great incubator for pro clubs.

NISA with a new CEO... Matt Morse who I think is top notch and a new Commissioner that I don't know at all.

The cleaning house of management and hopefully a new way to operate hopefully is going to deliver a better product.

NISA can still provide an important place for clubs.

Join a union...

What league are you thinking of joining?
