What does that have to do with the severity of the tear or whether or not it got any worse by playing on it for 30 minutes?
When we're able to identify the precise moment Puig tears his ACL and starts hobbling around like a guy with a torn ACL, we know he's going to be out for pretty much a full year after ACL surgery, regardless of what happens in the remaining 30 minutes (in this case the game winning assist to get them to MLS Cup).
Yeah, what I'm saying is that we can't say for sure that the tear didn't get any worse after he tore it and played on it for another 30 minutes.
Thankfully you don’t need to be an orthopedic surgeon to deduce that it’s possible an injury could get worse if you keep playing for 30 minutes after getting injured. Just a tiny dash of critical thinking.
2025 FIFA CLUB WORLD CUP Draw set in Miami amid apathy and legal threats The MetLife Stadium in New Jersey will host the final of the FIFA Club World Cup. (AFP) • Pots. FIFA has distributed the teams into four pots: • Pot 1: Four highest-ranked teams from Europe and four highest-ranked teams from South America. • Pot 2: Europe's eight remaining eight entrants. • Pot 3: Two highest-ranked teams from Asia, Africa and Concacaf along with South America’s two remaining teams. • Pot 4: The two remaining teams from Asia, Africa and Concacaf (including the Seattle Sounders), Oceania’s lone representative and the host country entrant (Inter Miami).
WTF are they talking about? A manufactured tournament of club - not national - teams with no set, above-board procedures for qualification and that has every appearance about being solely about making bank should not be linked to one of the oldest and most prestigious international sporting events in the world. Yet another example of crassness...
I tore my meniscus while refereeing a youth game and finished the game in about 15 more mins — I had felt a pop but it didn’t really hurt until I left the field, and then it started to swell. They asked me to center the final, and I had to turn it down. But I really don’t understand how Puig played 30 mins on a torn ACL, unless it’s a fairly minor tear. Everyone else I know who tore an ACL around me was in immediate extreme pain.
MLS switching to a Euro calendar could possibly work if cold weather teams play a 3–4-week road game schedule in warmer weather climates along with a 2-week XMAS break and a 1–2-week USMNT break during the month of December and January. Teams already play a 3 game road schedule during June and July so if they a were to stretch it out, it could happen. Also, other teams like St Louis, Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal could play at indoor stadiums that are available to those cities. The only problem I foresee though is, other teams like Cincinnati, , Columbis Chicago, Minnesota, Philly, NY1 & 2 Charlotte, Colorado , New England , DC and Seattle who don’t have any indoor stadiums available may not want to play all those games on the road. That is over a 1/3 of the league which would have to play away from home in December and January and they may not want to do that. MLS commissioner Don Garber teases switch to European Calendar
Garber didn't "tease" a switch to a winter calendar, he was asked a question about it and replied that it's something they're looking into just like they look into a bunch of things, including switching to a winter calendar multiple times in the past when they decided not to switch. Garber's full state of the league address is online
Garber either lied or forgot about the first Soccer Specific Stadium. The first one built specifically for soccer was not the LA Galaxy's Home Depot-StubHub-Center-Sports Park (in 2003) but it was the Columbus Crew's Mapfre Stadium built and completed in 1999.
I don't think we're going to find out what he said, must've been pretty bad. But everyone would rather move on, which is fine. If this was a pattern, it would be different, probably.
That is from 11/3. Bills changed their policy 10/7 to prohibit political messaging. Fan was told to cover up but not ejected. I don’t condone such policies in stadia. Neither does the California Constitution, per the Pruneyard decision.
I think this discussion is OK because it’s related to sports stadium policies and no one is taking a political partisan side.
Agree! Just a heads-up as there was a complaint about that post. We all know where the line is, I hope.
