    Re: NASL on Twitter

    Maybe we could get this thread renamed to NASL Social Networking Sites..

    The AC St. Louis website is now updated under the logo vid with links to facebook, twitter, flickr and youtube..

    AC St. Louis on Facebook
    AC St. Louis on Twitter
    AC St. Louis on Flickr
    AC St. Louis on Youtube

    :D

    ps. the teams site actually has the facebook link wrong so I had to get the correct one off the twitter feed.. :p Already shot off an email to the webmaster letting them know the link was wrong and gave them the proper link.

    Re: USSF D2 League on Twitter and Facebook

    I've officially unfollowed NASLofficial.

    If I wanted to read commentary and every news item from every other NASL team, I would have followed them as well.

    Also, if I wanted to read entire paragraphs split into 4 or 5 tweets, I would have found an article on the subject.

    Overkill.

    OK. I just wasn't sure what it was when I checked it out before. Didn't appear to be a supporter's group forum, more or less.

    CP Baltimore suck.

    From their website:
    Crystal Palace Baltimore vs. FC Tampa Bay - 7:00pm, April 16th 2010, UMBC Stadium, Baltimore MD

    WITH SINCEREST APOLOGIES, THE LIVE VIDEO STREAM WILL NOT BE SEEN TONIGHT.

    FOLLOW LIVE UPDATES ON OUR TWITTER PAGE: HTTP://TWITTER.COM/PALACEBALTIMORE

    WE DO EXPECT TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A LINK TO THE FULL VIDEO AND COMMENTARY OF THE GAME IN THE COMING DAYS, ALONG WITH A HIGHLIGHT REEL.

    AGAIN, WE FEEL YOUR DISAPPOINTMENT IN NOT HAVING A LIVE STREAM TO WATCH AND APOLOGISE UNRESERVEDLY.

    Has anyone else noticed an tweaks or changes of late to the NASL website? I thought for a minute that it looked different, but then I realized that the pictures in the scrolling flash element on the front page are still skewed slightly. I wonder if they'll clean things up over there. It needs it.

    i've never understood how/why they put up pictures on the scrolling home page that had been streched. how do you have a web person doing that if they don't realize that they are skewing the pictures.

    I spoke to the web guy recently and he says he's aware of all the issues. I think he is wearing too many hats. I just hope the league itself turns out to be more stable than their site.

    This fact, at least is clear. He's in way over his head with that site. All they do is repost news the teams themselves produce. In some cases *ahem*MINNESOTA*ahem* thats some of the worst sports writing on the web.

    I hope that with PMI they get some new writers. Heck, farm it out to the blogosphere.

    If you've got contact with NASL's web guy, is there any way you can suggest this? ESPN and MLS have both been known to do it already.
