    The Fire signed Patrick McLain again?
    Why?
    He managed to get into one game for the Fire in 2016 and has three MLS Games for his career (going back to 2012).

    And what the hell is a Kevin Ellis?

    The first thing that popped up on his twitter feed is a retweet from none other than:

    Donald J Trump!

    Lecturing people about the baby jesus.

    The Christmas Story begins 2,000 years ago with a mother, a father, their baby son and the most extraordinary gift of all—the gift of God’s love for all of humanity.

    Whatever our beliefs, we know that the birth of Jesus Christ and the story of his life...

    Oh, and Kevin Ellis has played a total of 68 games for KC over 7 seasons, including a whopping 5 games last season.

    MLS Cup...Here we come!

    Trump? Nelson is obviously picking players based on their strong moral character. :rolleyes:

    Nelson is trying to make for his lack of moral character.

    Patrick McLain is the goalie I thought we should have kept instead of Lampson, based on highlight reels alone.

    I'm feeling pretty smug right now.

    Sean Johnson (of course) is the goalie we should have kept instead of Lampson.

    well, yeah...

    Sean Johnson is the goal we should have kept instead of even knowing these two guys' names.

    They're also looking to move Nemeth , if Nugyen falls thru the Fire should make a move on that deal. Nemeth has played LW for Hungary ( including with Niko) and Katai has played AM.

    (Well, at least he isn't Steven Lenhart. Seriously, f' that guy. Glad he is out of the league.
    Every time I played FIFA16 on my phone and played San Jose, I would try to pick up as many red cards as possible by trying to injure that prick. It was a way to work out microaggression)

    I can't say I know much about this guy. I mean I guess he's allegedly another tall tree holdup super sub and people are pissed for his slur. I have a wait and see approach on this as it's not the most exciting signing.

    wtf is the point of this? with the offseason loss of Harrington were we too thin at the "xtomx hate" position?

    Why do I feel that even though we’re one game into the new season, the season is already over?

    I was going to put that down, but wanted to avoid being more negative.

    For the record, I did not "hate" Michael Harrington. I disliked him as a player intensely, but as our grandmothers said:
    "Hate is a very strong word. It should be saved for Trump and ex-spouses." (actually, I do not even "hate" my ex).


    All true, except the word "super."

    Thank you

    That would be an upgrade at center back.
