For the love of God, please, please actually read the damn text!

@ToddOnSports @BobbyHowardOK @OKCTalk The elephant in the room is that slap bang in the middle of "OKC UNITED" there is the ability to make quite a sweary word. One fold in the flag and there it is. One photo of a shirt from the "wrong" angle. Opposition fans will latch onto that real quick!

@BobbyHowardOK @OKCTalk

Per @OKCTalk, Echo Soccer has filed trademarks for OKC United to be used as the new name of the former Energy.

@cunn1780 @3StudsUp Never really liked the name and crest of Energy. It was a bit too "designed by committee and tested in focus groups" tbh. But this? This is the single worst thing I have ever seen in my life. And I sat through the movie version of Cats.

@3StudsUp Good. It’s a lame give up name. No culture, just business.

OKC United is getting ROASTED in the USL subreddit lol

@Cavedaddy @TheSoccerChef @OKC1889 have entered the chat.....

@TheSoccerChef Yessir, stole the whole concept, lol!

So, I have been told that the old Energy FC youth clubs have changed their colors to Red, Gold and Black by multiple people. I don’t know this for a fact but here’s a representation of that. Who knows.

Manchester City don't win silverware while Oasis are together. Apparently it's one or the other. 🤷🏻

@Cavedaddy @TheSoccerChef Meanwhile, building and growing year after year. @OklahomaCityFC just quietly doing things the right way. Build a team, a club not a "franchise", and everything else will follow.

@TheSoccerChef True. I’m 54. Enthusiasm waning.

Lets pontificate! @NYCosmos come & go in more forms than I can fathom. I’m happy they’re efforting. It’s good for the game. @EnergyFC restructuring & coming back in the correct form, with supporters, financial backing & stadium is on another level. EFC >NYCos #OkcIsForSoccer

30 years ago today, Eric Cantona actually tried to kick racism out of football.

@Tara04345487 @OklahomaDOGE @jacobrosecrants If they found anyone in Leeds who could pass, United would sign them tomorrow. Thank you. We now return to regularly scheduled silence. ⚽

@OklahomaDOGE @jacobrosecrants If you need something here look up Leeds in England

@OklahomaDOGE I just heard a rumor that they are planning to turn Norman into a 15 minute City. Why and why are We the People of Oklahoma allowing our tax dollars to be spent on a project like this. NO 15 MINUTE CITIES IN OKLAHOMA they can keep their slavery elsewhere

@TheSoccerChef In the back of the onion bag? 😥

@ScissortailPod Four loaves of it.

Pain

@TulsaRoughnecks @MaxBretosSports Every competition is the time to evaluate USA soccer! 2 years from now the WC will already have finished! Look at what USA cricket and rugby have done in just the past few months. Look and learn.

@MaxBretosSports Why not? Sorry Max, but we need broad reform, rather than be insulted into silence when the usual clique of yes-men engage in gatekeeping for an entrenched status quo. Today's performance by the Olympic men is just the latest symptom of what ails 🇺🇸.

Olympics Mens Soccer is not the place to make a decree on the state of the game in the United States. Some of y'all are way too dramatic.

@cunn1780 @LFC_RJ @Trent_Miller16 Don't make us light the Beacons of Minas Tirith again. 🤬

@LFC_RJ @Trent_Miller16 Hey you guys should like, go on a podcast together and discuss, or something

The future is bright!!

So that's that. 🤷 Anyone got any thoughts on Bibles in schools? 🤣

"DNA sample for a Government held database". Again, and we're as shocked as anyone else here, for some the rush to signal how offended you are about something that isn't true has over-ridden the facts, the big picture, and basic human logic. What a time to be alive!

An, on the face of it, non-soccer related thread: A woman is boxing at the olympics who has naturally elevated testosterone levels and, allegedly, a Y chromosome. This is not as uncommon as you'd think. Some people are clutching their pearls and calling her a man. Saying it

To any MLS owners, fans, franchises, or enablers, who's timeline is suddenly flooded with Rugby content: a message. Ignore it. You won't like it. Nothing to see here, just move along. This isn't your next investment opportunity. Shoo! Go about your soccer business. 🤣

@TheSoccerChef @princesscouser That's one thing you can say about the OKC soccer community. We don't have a lane to stay in, we have an abandoned mall parking lot to do donuts in!

@ScissortailPod @princesscouser Only you would pull that out. Missed you at imps matches.

How did the US not score there 😫

@TheSoccerChef @princesscouser When Washington crossed the Delaware 60% of his troops were French mercenaries. Time to break out the "I believe that we will win" chant? 🤣

@princesscouser Post got in the way. France can’t win wars so they expand their goal posts. I’m sure of it!
