@justBlakePrice Whitecaps got an underwhelming return... Can't wait for new Majoirty Ownership to take over and actually make moves to shape the Whitecaps Roster. This management doesn't know how to get high returns via sales...

The Whitecaps losing Berhalter is another reason why the calendar change needs to happen. This is when the rest of the world does business, and a top player has been forced out mid season while in 1st place

Dayne St. Clair has been dropped from Inter Miami's starting lineup in favour of the team's MLS Cup-winning GK, Rocco Rios Novo. St. Clair largely struggled for form ahead of the tournament in MLS play. #CanMNT

@BackwardsFeet I think the guy went too far but the kid was absolutely wrong to sit. Patriotism is a minor virtue of piety which is subordinate to justice. This makes his actions venial. That being said, I don’t know where the line is, but correction here can be just.

Preaching that God has assigned black people to "a civilizational station of subordination and dependence" due to the Curse of Ham, Christian nationalist pastor Dale Partridge calls for a "return to European Christian colonization of African nations." peoplefor.org/rightwingwatch…

France 🇫🇷 right now is like Brazil 🇧🇷from the mid 90s to the mid 2000s. Stacked in every position, 2-3 forwards that are arguably the best in the World and possibly heading to 3 consecutive World Cup finals… who is stopping this team?

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. — 2 Corinthians 12:9. It is the uniquely Christian way that we do not change the world through force, that might does not make right, but that it is through living a cruciform life, by being loving, gentle, humble and kind that we bring light to the world. It is the Hobbit that destroys unimaginable evil; it is children that Asian calls to stop the wicked witch. It is a wandering teacher and healer that lays down his life for his friends instead of calling down all the angels and instituting his own empire over Rome. This idea that Christians need to take over the world using the methodology of Rome and Babylon is so counter to the Christian story that it is a little mind boggling. As others have pointed out (Dostoyevsky among them in his prescience): this is absolutely the claim that Jesus was a “loser” to deny the temptations of Satan in the desert. I want to gently and humbly suggest that he was right to say no three times.

Magical thinking (as seen in the post below) is a prominent feature of Loser Theology. Magical thinking takes a biblical concept or phrase, with a specific meaning and application, then pushes it into absurdity. When someone notices the absurdity, they respond with a fortune cookie response, like "this is the way of Jesus," or "weakness is the way." According to Packer's book, the world worships strength, competence, success, independence, and influence, but the gospel turns those values upside down. But guess what? JI Packer was intellectually strong, competent, successful, and influential. These facts undermine the book's thesis. When Christians hear such statements, they end up choosing weakness, incompetence, and failure, believing this is what Jesus wants them to do. Meanwhile, the modern West is descending further into the abyss of gay race communism while Christians who might have prevented it sit on the sidelines and do nothing. Yes, when we are weak, Christ is strong. That much is true. But Christians are never commanded to be weak. Rather, scripture says, "act like men. Be strong."

@dmichaelclary You should start here! I had the honour of helping him with this one. Weakness is the way.

@IndianaBrunner So you’re saying pulisic kicked tieleman… so it should be a foul on pulisic then…

Indiana Brunner@IndianaBrunner·
I understand why people are saying this isn’t a foul, but I’m conflicted on this. If Tielemans’s foot is clearly in front of the ball when Pulisic strikes it, then I don’t think it’s a foul. But stepping across a player’s striking leg just before he kicks the ball should be considered a foul. After all, why do fouls exist? They’re there to protect players. The fact that this challenge caused Christian’s injury and forced him to be substituted doesn’t automatically make it a foul, but it’s exactly the kind of dangerous contact the rules are meant to prevent.

Ridiculous amount of time checking for nothing. Clearly got Mbappe out of his rhythm. VAR assist on the miss.

seems wild to me for there to be such an incredibly long VAR check before a pretty obvious penalty there. Mbappe delayed going to the spot and still was there long enough he readjusted the ball twice

@NorthFultonJP There's no champions league for MLS, it will never happen and it doesn't matter. Argentina doesn't need a "top 5 league" and MLS being at the point where they trap players isn't a good thing!

We need the MLS to become a farm league that's primary purpose is to send talented kids to europe ASAP while providing decent enough entertainment with those who don't make the cut. Stop the washed goat gimmicks and stop holding on to promising youngsters

@MsMelChen The team didn’t grind through qualifiers… they hosted and got an automatic spot. And if they want to… they could sign a different cba if they don’t like the deal.

The US men's national soccer team is being subjected to the same kind of legalized plunder that defines too many divorce proceedings in this country. After grinding through qualifiers, earning their spot in the World Cup, and generating the massive FIFA payout that only the men's game can produce ($12.8 million in this case), the players are now forced to hand over a huge chunk of that money to the women's team under the "equal pay" collective bargaining agreement. The women didn't play a single minute of those matches, didn't draw the crowds, didn't sell the tickets, and didn't create the revenue - yet they still get a cut of the men's prize money while the reverse transfer remains a fraction. Yes the women are more successful (having won the Women's World Cup several times) but the prize is much smaller. Why? It reflects differences in global interest, sponsorship, viewership and actual performance. This is all under the guise of "parity" between "equivalent work." But in reality, it's more like subsidizing one program with the output of the other, just like the ex-spouse cashing checks from earnings she didn't generate. "Equal pay" sounds noble until you realize it erases differences in market value, risk, audience draw, and results. It disincentivizes excellence on the men's side (why push harder if your windfall gets redistributed?) and removes pressure on the women's side to grow their own commercial appeal. Like divorce settlements that trap high-earners in perpetual support roles, this policy treats men's soccer as a piggy bank for "fairness," not a business rewarding what fans and sponsors actually value.
