Messi decides to play RW for the first time since MSN 9 years ago in a world cup semi and does that
such an american cup: prevent defense prevents you from winning
Sports games are events. You can go and have a good time even if you don't know who's playing Sports fandom is storytelling. It's caring about who's playing and what it all means so you can talk to friends and your barber about it MLS thinks it's in the first business, not the second
It's not even that MLS is bad at marketing, it's that they seem to have stopped trying? No ads during the World Cup, YouTube original content is non-existent, they laid off or re-assigned their in-house writers and podcasters. I'm just completely baffled as to what they think they're doing.

Are hydration breaks really just for ad revenue? Pretty much! But how do they exist within the game's rules? Who stands to gain from them the most? And how do they impact games? We also talk the 48-team format, and how that change stacks up to all the many formats we've seen at World Cups gone by
New episode of The Blueprint with @treyfillmore.bsky.social, @thepigeonsnycfc.bsky.social and it's all about the pausa de hidratación and how it fits into the long history of controversial and soccer-altering World Cup rule and format changes. Listen, like, subscribe, etc ⬇️
very clear corruption and favoritism towards the CONCACAF host nation allowing them to play on in this manner of course we’re speaking about Mexico not having to forfeit matches despite rampant use of a banned bigoted chant, you were talking about something else?
