Chicago Fire 3-1 Orlando City… some thoughts #cf97 #VamosFire

The Fires first playoff win since 2009. Soccer is pretty fun it turns out.

‘This is the start of something great’ Had a chat(z) with Omar González… on his role with the 2025 Chicago Fire, mentorship, Gregg Berhalter and more at @OnTapSportsNet #cf97 #VamosFire ontapsportsnet.com/fire/intervi...

Juniper invited me into the bath and this is honestly one of the funniest images I've gotten in the game.

Not watching the USMNT game, watching El Tri instead. Why did Ecuador just pull a double fakeout on who was taking the kick? It's a friendly, I don't think the keeper's been studying tape on what way you usually go.

Being an athlete in America is being deified and demonized on the field. Being a Black athlete in America is being deified on the field and demonized in every other possible way. Anything to dehumanize.

New Sad Bois episode is up. I was very hungover, but I had @adnanbasic.bsky.social and a special guest appearance from our original member @rga02.bsky.social to help really try to put the Fire's playoff berth into perspective. open.spotify.com/episode/4dKx...

I ALWAYS KNEW JUSTIN HAD IT IN HIM!

David Cross folks.

Share your favorite black and white movie The Great Dictator (1940)

I was gonna say I didn't think Spike Lee would care about soccer, but him in a Thierry Henry jersey does just make sense.

Chicago Fire 1-3 NYCFC… some thoughts #cf97 #VamosFire

I would hope that if I died in some violent and public way, the nicest thing someone could say about me wouldn't just be "He had a family."

Some thoughts after the Chicago Fire’s 3-2 win over the New England Revolution #cf97 #VamosFire

Know your rights, Illinois. Stay safe and stay informed.

i've decided to run for mayor of new york city. i hate this city, i hate being in it, i think everyone in it is stupid except for me, when people have fun here it makes me mad, i don't know why i'm running, i don't want to be mayor, and i have $4. see you at the polls

You’re telling me this guy is not a more desirable guy to promote than Gavin Newsom

Updated Chicago Fire roster tracker after @amcalabrese.bsky.social went back and forth on explainers in the notes like lawyers on a contract. Check out his full explainer on what the Fire's moves mean as the clock ticks down on the summer window #cf97 #VamosFire

Chicago Stars FC were down 3-0 with less than 20 minutes remaining vs Seattle Reign and it was goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher who scored the goal in ninth minute of second half stoppage time to tie things up at three. at @ontapsportsnet.bsky.social #WithTheStars #NWSL ontapsportsnet.com/chicago-star...

UNCLE NAEHER!!!!

Chicago Fire 2-2 LAFC… some thoughts #cf97 #VamosFire #LAFC

Detailed interview with Yuki Kobayashi now with Jagiellonia Białystok. Talks about his time at Kobe (Iniesta, Podolski) and his hardships at Celtic, etc. weszlo.com/2025/08/06/y...

Literally NFTs all over again. Because there are some pretty decent limited use cases for it (NFTs for ticketing managing contracts is actaully pretty solid), but then tech bros are like "NO! I'M GONNA CHANGE THE WORLD!" as they nonconsensually shove it down everyone's throats all the time.

My experience of BlueSky vs Twitter can be described as this. And honestly, not a fan of either experiences.

my favorite bluesky arguments are the long drawn-out ones where person a responds via direct reply and person b exclusively answers through quote-posts. it's like seeing two people arguing on the street with one person facing sideways and shouting into the open door of a baskin robbins

I'm going to hate it here when he signs for LAFC.

Cause the Whitecaps are chill. Would I have wanted him in Chicago? Yes. Do I get why he chose Vancouver? Obviously.

I keep saying this, but BlueSky needs to pick it up with getting weirdos on here. Like, true sickos who can whip out real brainrot memes and start pointless arguments about "How does this affect LeBron's Legacy?". Every time I open this app, there's definitely less bad actors, but there's less fun.

this is why we need about 450% more non politics hobby posts like sports and books and crafts on this app

I've given in and downloaded Duolingo to learn Korean. Yes, I know Duolingo sucks at East Asian languages, but I gotta do something, right? Even if I know how much money the Korean government spends on people learning English and really, if the person is my age, it's their fault for not knowing.

The Chicago Fire came to Montréal needing a win and did just that after scoring on each side of halftime while not conceding at Stade Saputo. At @ontapsportsnet.bsky.social #cf97 #VamosFire ontapsportsnet.com/fire/chicago...

New Sad Bois. We brought @thotze.bsky.social all the way out to Korea just so he can tell me that maybe I should eat something other than burgers for protein. Also, we talk about the new Fire stadium and some extended (Red) Stars conversation. creators.spotify.com/pod/show/sad...

Chicago Fire 7-1 D.C. United. Some thoughts #cf97 #VamosFire

Chicago Fire announce plans for a mew, privately-funded soccer stadium in The 78 in downtown Chicago, close to their new state-of-the-art training facility. Plans are to have it ready for the 2028 MLS season with construction kicking off this fall. #cf97 #mls

So that new neighborhood is going to be like Wrigleyville but for soccer? Call it Mansuetown dearchicago.com

Well, more #cf97 news happened that we probably could've talked about. But it only just got announced. So instead we talked about College Football 26 and maid cafes. But hey, Sad Bois is always a good time. Check it out. creators.spotify.com/pod/show/sad...

News: The Chicago Fire have announced plans to build a soccer-specific stadium at The 78 in Chicago. Fire owner Joe Mansueto will be financing the $650 million project that will seat around 22,000 that is scheduled to be opened ahead of the 2028 MLS season #cf97 #VamosFire
