    I’m with ya. Gonna be a great 8+ years. That 2002 squad didn’t have the positional competition the current group does.

    Inter Miami have one final appeal before they have to change their name. Two out of two shot.

    I could care less about their name. I just wanna see if MLS is going to hold them accountable or make them do something drastic like they shockingly did with LAG when they had to get rid of one of their dos Santos's.

    Even though we play in Fort Lauderdale and by the time we figure out where to put the stadium in Miami, the city will be under water from climate change we will still call ourselves the Miami SCUBA 11

    Something about this reminds me of the ever elusive Original Rapidman.

    Agreed. I never made the Spring tournaments, but I caught a game there on a beautiful weekday night while in Charleston on business. Bought a Battery jersey at the team shop, still have it and wear it. That place was a little gem.

    That's where Mrs. Winoman and I met @fatbastard and @Gittnbizzee . That was a wonderful venue, and the Three Lions Pub, with all of the memorablia, was aces!

    I was once there for a CCC game Charleston-DCU, nice venue also if a cab ride from downtown Charleston costed me $40.01 (I will never forget the one cent), also I will not forget the big divisory at the end of the stadium, I guess from a swamp, with a sign "do not molest alligators" or something like that.

    Oh man, I wish you had known how to contact me then for a ride - we used to always rent a house on Folly Beach for the week and some folks would come down for the first weekend, some for the last weekend, and we always had a place to stay for folks

    Good news: Miami was found to have broken roster rules by having four DPs last season!

    Bad news: DCU didn't even try.

    So the Euro Super League is here. Those guys should all die in a fire. A cynical attempt to grab cash and ensure those teams never have to face relegation/promotion ever again. Given that at least one (Juve) was involved in match fixing before, ******** all of them. This will be the death of club soccer in Europe.

    I think it's a (cynical) negotiation ploy.

    I mean, these superclubs that are branching off into the Super League barely ever get relegated from their respective country's top division.
