My simple soap box (and I speak from personal experience). If you've never had depression, or any sort of mental issue, then you don't ask questions. Nogs takes far too much crap from people who have no idea what they are talking about. Yes he went back to another team, but Soccer may be his outlet. If he needed that outlet to be closer to home because of something bothering him than he took a huge step to easing whatever issue he is having. That is to be commended. He has already done more for himself, in that one step, than the millions of others who are also facing similar situations.
He said the French language broadcast of last weekends Impact game drew an average of 0.1 rating higher than the English broadcast
I'm sure people know the reason but just like the Sheanon/Jack Mac beef, the Nick Sak string pulling and the Nowak craziness you need to be in a secret club to find out.
It's a tired discussion at this point but as far as I know...no. Due to not really knowing any details about the situation or the players health, it's not crazy to me that we have fans standing on both sides of the argument: 1. Being skeptical of your best player leaving mid-season (just when everything is beginning to gel) with very little detail from the team and sign with a club 1 week later. 2. Conclude it is a mental health/depression related issue that would be solved by him leaving and hope for the best for the player. ...And neither of them be completely wrong or out of line for holding that position. From the little we know, Nogs seemed to be a pretty good dude so you hope it was for good and valid reason.
Per Twitter, Kevin Kratz' visa is approved and he's on his way to Philly. I had forgotten we'd signed him, in all honesty.
Well until it comes out I think people can say or think whatever they want. If they don't like how it looks on the surface, they can address it publicly.
In the spirit of Union players becoming BFF's with the fans, I think this means Bedoya can afford to take us all out for cheesesteaks.
It's pretty depressing when my biggest hope right now is that Herdling 2.0 will be able to play. I shouldn't be so negative; His salary is super low, so if he is even average, it's a good deal. But my optimism for this team is waning... We need a nice win to bring momentum. I feel like a win and even a tie against Red Bulls would really lift the spirits.
He's finally with the team, we have 2 regular season games, barely looking like we'll make the playoffs, and who knows if Wild Kratz is here in 2017. Shit, I'd come out of retirement to sign for this team, too, if it gave me some extra coin.

Hmm, I don't believe it. I think the author confused himself with Kinkead's tweet from last week. I was told that last year, the Union agreed to sell Andre Blake to Belgian club Genk, but it fell apart at the very last minute— Kevin Kinkead (@Kevin_Kinkead) October 1, 2016
I'm skeptical it'll happen. They'll basically be reducing next season to just another rebuilding year.
