Crew to Austin in 2019..(Maybe)

made it look the the brocoli had a boner?

 

It's not madness, it's Major League!

 

My slight derail post.....Im watching the boca jrs series on netflix.....man did a bring a smile to my face getting to listen to the voice of god himself talking about building a team. I would really love the chance to see him honored here in cbus as one of the best players ever in MLS.


If you havent already add the boca jr series to your watch list. If you dont know spanish the subtitles are easy to read....if you dont know how to read just enjoy seeing the soccer.

 

See that? Thats shit. And this - is Shinola

 

LOL. Did those shirts ever get made? I'm not gonna make it to the next few games is there a pick location I can pay/receive mine?

Direct message for personal info is prolly better than breaking the 4th wall here.

 

For some reason, I just went crosseyed reading this.

 

HR. Dam. That's heavy.

As a salesman, I've felt that my kind are just slightly below attorneys on the despicable scale. But HR.... HR.... a special kind of evil. Smiling faces behind cold, hard evil. And they are so very good at it.

 

“Thank you for continuing your 2019 Crew SC Memberships! Your preferred method of payment was charged today to reserve your seats.”

 

Ahh, now I see my mistake. Thanks for clearing up my confusion!

 

Jerk.

 

This is the longest this thread has gone without serious news.
Waiting for the hammer to hit in the next few days....

 

Actually, the news about STH getting charged for next year is pretty big. It means PSV will have to give back money to play in Austin next year. I'm sure it will be difficult for PSV to part with money.

As for other news, we can expect the motion to dismiss ruling, which will likely be a nothing burger in the grand scheme of things. It reinforces the Crew not moving for 2019, and the trial goes Howard. Hopefully there are buyers that want to keep the Crew in Columbus.

The biggie is the lease for McKalla. An announcement that they have signed a lease, or will not sign the lease will be big. That may be a while off.

 

We also have the tolling period ending tomorrow so there will be news on that too.

 

From what I've been able to discern, the schedule apparently gets worked out in a short time frame after the season ends (aside from the opening game), but I'm assuming the individual teams start working on the schedule well before that.

 

These wretched turds...

“Whether that’s right or wrong, I don’t know, but it isn’t for me to say.”

“I hope the Crew can be a thing again.”

“I hoping this is the team we get to support next year.”

******** right off.

 

I hope all of those fcuks contract gonorrhea. Fcuk them all.

 

If a notice is insincere incantation, like MLS' alleged notice last March has proven to be, it won't matter because these teams can forsake all reasonable offers. If the law respects insincerity, it does not matter what the "owner really wants," only what the owner disingenuously says.

 

FYP.

 

But the reason for giving notice is to comply with the Modell law as opposed to moving in the night. If they think the Modell law has teeth and don't want to sell their team, they would be at risk of having a court ordered sale.

I don't buy the argument that selling tickets for 2019 vitiates the previously given notice. PSV will say their move has been delayed by the suit against them and compliance with the law is no excuse for the city and state to pretend ignorance of their desire to move.

 

If this case sets a precedent that a false notice is sufficient notice, then there is not going to be any risk to other Ohio owners from giving false notices.

And PSV cannot say "their move has been delayed by the suit": (1) because they're on record as saying MLS owns the team, not PSV; and (2) because the lawsuit has not delayed the move, regardless who owns the team. There is currently no injunction. There is no impediment from the suit to a move. I've said this repeatedly and it does not seem to have sunk in.

 

Well said.

 

If there was no Modell law and no lawsuit I have a very hard time thinking of a single thing which they would have done differently right up until today.

To claim that ORC 9.67 has been an impediment to their move in any way is simply ridiculous.

 

I don't believe the notice is false notice, I believe that PSV/MLS intends to move the team. What I believe, however, is they don't have a definitive time line for the move because they haven't finalized where the team will play either in the short or long term.

The fact that they are working the details of implementation of their plan doesn't mean that they don't have a plan.

Creating a notice that covers the contingencies of finalizing these details and provides a definitive move date would be difficult for them at this time.

Very much this. The impediments to the move until this point has been the fact that they don't have a temporary stadium for next year or the site of the permanent stadium. All the impediments have been in Austin.

Signing the lease for McKalla removes one of those impediments. After that is done, and they have a completion date for the permanent stadium, they can provide a date certain for the move.
