2026 Non-Massive MLS teams (because Eboe said it should be clarified) (Come Bite The Apple!)

It was a game worn for my favorite club....

 

John Doyle signed my 94 World Cup card, took a few steps, then turned around and tossed me his warmup t-shirt (before they even had warmup jerseys). I’ve always sort of rooted for San Jose (except when they’re playing Columbus) because of that.

 

Listen to the podcast American Fiasco if you need a few more...

Inversely it will make you like Frankie that much more too...

 

LOL, I was one of those kids he ran by too.

 

You want to simp for the Columbus-hating Chest-Burster, be my guest. He's always persona non-grata in my book.

 

He finds more and more ways to be a total douchenozzle even now by making his show and takes even more political and annoying AF.

 

********ING LOL.

 

Columbus has always cheated the city population by aggressively annexing land, to the point that there is Columbus outside of Franklin County IIRC.

 

So Paul Tenorio is releasing a book called The Messi Effect, and from everything I see about it, it seems like it is going to be a spiritual follow up to Grant Wahl's The Beckham Experiment, and I truly hope that Paul dedicated his book to Grant...

 

The City of Columbsu is the 38th largest city in the US by area. As lists go, thsi one;s pretty whacky. Th elargest four are in Alaska. No. 5 ia aplacein Kansas with a popuilatin under 1,000.

Actualy major cities that are larger, area-qwise than Colubsu are:

6. Jacksonville
9. Houston
10, Oklahoma City
11. Phoenix
12. San Antonio
13. Nashville
14. Los Angeles
18. Indianapolis
19. Ft. Worth
20. Dallas
22. San Diego
23. Austin
24. Louisville
25. KC
26. Charlotte
28. NYC
29. Memphis
31. El Paso
34. Virginia Beach
35. Tucson
36. Chicago

Population-wise, we're the 14th largest city on this list.

Maybe Columbus grabs land, maybe not. But it's hard to claim that it's any worse that a lot of other cities (small, medium and large) in the US.

 

...and knowing is half the battle.

 

Pareja out in orlando

 

Long time coming. He doesn't have the juice he used to.

 

Was he squ

Was he squezzed out?

 

He would always end up leaving a bad taste in your mouth.

 

One win in their past 13 games dating to last season. The rot had set in and it was time. Poorly built roster, but I think Pareja likely had a good amount of say in how it’s built.

 

Also, his tactics have just become stale and boring. I think the team and coach both needed a change. He's still a good coach, but I don't think he's the great coach we thought he might be.

 

It wasn't just that they lost those games, they looked so despondent and so unorganized. They looked terrible before the red card, and looked terrible after it.
