@JustDougMan @ericjackson It’s a subjective take so yes you did smooth brain

@AIdevdove @ManagerTactical Send location I will sponsor your therapy and send you some reading material

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical Lmao buddy I responded to some dumb shit you said about a topic you don't know anything about.
Hope you get more open to learning👍
English

Here we go again with the “what if our best athletes played soccer” theory” 🤣😭🤣
The entire Spanish 🇪🇸 national team would not be considered “great athletes” by football 🏈 player standards.
We don’t have a soccer athlete problem we have a soccer culture problem.
The Late Run@TheLateRunShow
Is American football to blame for the USMNT not unlocking its full potential? 🤔 Gronk thinks if the roles were reversed and our best athletes played soccer instead at a young age, we’d be one of the top 3 nations 🇺🇸

@JustDougMan @ericjackson You answered the question though lol thanks
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical Lying? Name one lie. Wtf are you talking about.
"You never asked for metrics that prove mls is catching up you asked for proof of talent surge"
Why would anyone care about a "talent surge" if it wasn't globally relevant? No one cares if you compare MLS to itself😂
English

Nothing I’ve said is untrue. You never asked for metrics that prove mls is catching up you asked for proof of talent surge. You’re extremely tiring to talk to because you keep lying throughout the conversation and wasting my time denying the obvious over and over. You clearly are mad about something in your life that makes you hate either us soccer or most or both.
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical Denying *what*, exactly?
You made an ignorant statement about Spain and got called on it, and now you can't give any metrics with global comparators that indicate MLS is catching up to dev systems rooted in competitive pyramids.
Buddy you're a full of shit.

It’s time to get the job done.

The talent coming into Opendoor these days is just insane. I'd put us up against any company in tech.
English

@AIdevdove @ManagerTactical You’re just gonna keep saying dumb shit and denying the obvious
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical "Amount of Young players at top clubs" is the only thing in your list that's a global comparator. On that metric, MLS is a disaster when compared to similarly valued clubs.
Outgoing transfer revenue? Also a joke.
No one cares about MLS stats. It's not competitive league.
English

@AIdevdove @ManagerTactical The issue is you’re just saying a whole bunch of nothing
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical Holy shit read my tweet.
If you can't understand what I was saying about Barcelona, then log off.
English

@AIdevdove @ManagerTactical I’m the only one of us being specific. You can measure it many ways and they all post to a significant increase. Amount of Young players at top global clubs, youth national team performances, teenagers putting up stats in mls at levels we haven’t seen in the league before etc…
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical "significant talent surge" as measured by *what*.
Be specific.
English

Then use the word minority instead let’s not get detracted from the point over semantics. Also let’s keep your head in straight, where did I say anything about Barcelona not having the best dev systems in the world. I think you are just bored with your life and want to argue so will keep making things up and refuse to acknowledge the truth in things
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical "Outliers"
Lmao. Barcelona and the Basque clubs have the best dev systems on the planet, and Spain's top academy products aren't as distributed as say England's or France's.
And still: >25%
Do you not know what "outlier" means?
English

@RealSuttice @ericjackson The stupid person would be the one that took the joke seriously
English

@JustDougMan @ericjackson Were you born stupid or did you take lessons?
English

@AIdevdove @ManagerTactical I’m not gonna dive deeper into the weeds of this with you all you need to do is look at the big picture and it’s evident the significant talent surge at the us youth level due to improved academy programs
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical In my experience, MLS fans just don't have any idea about how academies and competitive pyramids work.
Spanish clubs are in fierce competition with each other for soccer labor. They have a ton of incentives they respond too.
MLS fans magically think those don't matter. Why?
English

@AIdevdove @ManagerTactical This doesn’t prove anything. The decision is dictated by norms not outliers. I didn’t say nobody comes out of the lower divisions
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical I did.
Porro: Rayo, Segunda
Fornals and Huijsen: Malaga, Segunda
Baena, Villarreal, Segunda the year he joined
Yeremy, Las Palmas, Segunda
Iglesias, Rosa, 6th division and then Villarreal, Segunda the year after he joined
Munoz, Damm, non-league
1/2

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical "La liga has only 20 teams so that’s 20 pro team tied academies."
I need you to describe what you're saying here.
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical Before I address the meat of your claim here, are you saying you think Spain has 20 academies?
English

@paramendra @vkhosla You thought you cooked but this makes literally zero sense
English

@vkhosla When Doug says "everything," he just means money.

I love the fact you hate everything about me. Helps me characterize you

Tourist accused of hurling rock at endangered Hawaii monk seal's head is arrested by federal agents. I wonder what kind of human being does this. cbsnews.com/news/tourist-t…
English

You haven’t thought this through thoroughly. La liga has only 20 teams so that’s 20 pro team tied academies. They do also have lower division teams and the second division has produced some good players but the vast majority of top players come from academies tied to top division. The mls has 30 academy tied teams and will grow overtime unlike Spain. We have more of what matters most.
Not to mention you can’t deny the fact results support this growth because look up and see we have more sought after youth talent than we ever have by a lot. Also look how the mls for the first time ever is being dominated by a bunch of teenagers across the league.
Stop the ignorance we are not far behind at all and have the largest pool of players to develop
English

@JustDougMan @ManagerTactical They have a fraction of the incentives and more like 7% the output.of similarly valued clubs globally.
We're extremely far behind.
