    Well, much like George R. R. Martin this Crew team cannot finish.

    True--but that's sadly more of a commitment than papers in most other MLS cities give it...

    It sure does make you wonder though. Could there be some news this week?

    When does the next transfer window open? Early July?

    If Doc is going to talk about 3 dragons, none of them are on the team now. Are we looking to add 3 DPs in the next window? I guess we could pay down the current DPs but that doesn't seem very efficient.

    That's the weird thing. It seems too early to be dropping hints about July signings. But feels late to attribute to Zardes' DP, Accam, and Guzman. Also, it's not like we've been impressive since those moves, and I don't think Dr. Pete is dumb enough to make that kind of statement in this lack luster stretch if those dragons are already here. And I'd hope their social media posts like that are at least partially vetted by the Pros Haslams have furnished. I guess they could all be intra league moves and we'll know in the next few days weeks as Bill guessed.

    I'm not sure what to make of it yet.

    I mean, it could just be a human attempting to make a pop culture reference to connect with other humans on an important day for humans that are interested in that particular brand of pop culture.

    Perhaps, but if he didn't think people would take it as talk about new players, he's going to learn a lot about social media in the next few weeks.

    Oh, you're absolutely right. I think my mental image of Dr. Pete as a sweet old man, who's new to all of this could be influencing my view on his tweets (which, by the way, I'm surprised occur at all).

    Seeing everyone try to pick apart The Doc’s tweets is like seeing all of those damn Game of Thrones “fan theories”. I’d rather stuff my head in a meat grinder.

    Sweet old man?

    I wonder if he's referring to Dee, Bez, and Porter? I wouldn't call any of them dragons (that would have to be someone who helps us score) but maybe he's using the term very loosely.

    Hey now, I'm damn near 40. It's not my fault that my brain still thinks that the body carrying it around is 25.

    Zardes, Trapp and Steffen named to the 40 man Gold Cup roster. The roster will be trimmed down and this is a surprise to no one but now it's official.

    Or past 50.

    Although a former co-worker once said everything happens on the 7's ... 14 High School, 21 legal age, 28 major life events like first house and marriage/kids, 35 first signs of aging and frustration with life/spouse/kids/job, 42 wow I can't do that anymore, 49 holy **** I'm almost 50 and a broad mind and narrow waist change places... Forget what 56 was, probably loss of memory for everything except how good things were back when you were 21.
