@mnaurorafc.bsky.social leads River Light, 1-0, at the half. Before I call Detroit/Charleston in USL-C, I wanted to spotlight our *new* 2026 Match Notes. 20 pages full of all things Aurora (I know @njemurray.bsky.social will enjoy this). Read up during the break: drive.google.com/file/d/11wsr...

I left the club at the end of last season when my internship ended but want to make a point that Ascent are by far the most analytically advanced team in the league. I handed off data operations to three incredible interns that have expanded tremendously on my work. I’ll be rooting for them tonight.

Got my World Cup schedule for SiriusXMFC today. Ok...let's fucking do this.

Just throwing this out there: If I had a nickel for every Forward Madison alumni GK going to the World Cup, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. (Chris Brady, Dayne St. Clair, for those curious)

Going to go out on a limb and say if one of your center backs has the most passes into the final third for your side, and he completed 25% of them, it doesn't bode well.

Nice finish by Braudilio Rodrigues to wrap up all three points for @susannahfuller.bsky.social's @oneknoxsc.bsky.social. #USL-1

🍁 GOOOAL! 🍁 Hannah Kroupa on her debut! 1-0 to the Green!

No surprise here. Former Forward keeper, Dayne St. Clair, has been called up to the Canadian national team for the 2026 FIFA World Cup™. Once a Mingo, always a Mingo. Congrats, Dayne. 🧤

@mikewattsonair.bsky.social is a national treasure

Hey, @tsnofficial.bsky.social, this closing montage is spectacular.

#CANMNT x FIFA World Cup 🍁

FORWARDS REVEALED! 🤩 Jonathan David, Promise David, Cyle Larin, and Tani Oluwaseyi have been named as Canada's forward group! 🇨🇦 #FIFAWorldCup

Damn right, it's #TaniTime. #CanMNT

@tsnofficial.bsky.social is doing good work with tonight's #CanMNT roster reveal.

Would I rather just have the full #CanMNT roster and THEN the feature stories? Yes. Do I have to respect the framing of Jacob Shaffelburg talking about his Nova Scotia roots for this piece? Also yes.

We are surging toward #FullMingo tonight. #USL-1

Continue to be smitten with Knoxville's flexibility in the press, they're really finding ways to make it work without losing the benefits of a dual No. 9 shape.
