@jbentley-atx.bsky.social I had the same problem as you on DAZN and this Reddit thread solved it for me. Hopefully they’ve fixed this issue by now but it was still happening yesterday. www.reddit.com/r/ClubWorldC...

A mix CD of unknown origin with 3 songs I love that I will not know the name of for at least 5 years

Jesus to Mary Magdalene

NYCFC vs ORL - 3/8/25 The light purple socks are a nice touch for the Lions. The color that looks best with purple is other purple, imo. I can’t wait for NYC to play in a stadium that can fit an actual soccer pitch. So hard to watch. I don’t feel like I gleaned much from this short video.

DC vs SKC - 3/8/25 I don’t think these legacy these teams are very good. DC at least has the decency to maintain their original kit style. Christian Benteke and Eric Thommy are very good. Jared Stroud can still hit a nice early cross. It’s weird when there are no clips from the last 30 minutes.

ATL vs RBNY - 3/8/25 I remain unconvinced by Brad Guzan in 2025. Atlanta is going to score again one day? Right? If they do, it will probably have to do with Saba, who looks like their best player in everything I’ve seen. RB started Julian Hall who is 16 years old and wears number 16.

SEA vs LAFC - 3/8/25 The new Seattle kit is awesome. Where does Seattle find these dudes? First goal scored on an incredible effort by Rienzi, who has 2 goals in six matches for Seattle the last two years, and zero goals in 27 appearances for the Next Pro Defiance in the last year.

CLB vs HOU - 3/8/25 I still love the purple Dynamo kit. This Houston team reminds me a lot of when Austin has been bad recently. Empty possession and a bizarre defensive structure with a very messy press. Columbus has ideas but a definite lack of talent compared to last year (obviously).

I’ve been trying to watch the Full Match highlights of every MLS game this season. It really feels like I get a better sense of the league this way than watching Wrap-Up, even if it is a little too goal focused.

Austin FC kit thoughts: The design is solid, but it’s held back by the BAD adidas template. I’m a lot madder after seeing Miami’s kit, b/c: 1. It’s basically the same design in pink (not saying it’s a copy, just frustrating) 2. AUSTIN COULD’VE NEGATED THE TEMPLATE (I fixed it in photoshop, poorly)

This looks like an establishing shot for a horror movie

I've seen a lot of talk in Austin FC media/fan spaces about need for a number 10, so I wanted to see what's worked in MLS recently. There's little correlation with just having a primary chance creator and "success." There's a lot of nuance beyond that. Data/analysis: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Austin alert! Sound the verde alarms!

Realized that lots of fast food chains have a signature beverage and there’s very little overlap: Taco Bell - Baja Blast McDonald’s - Coca-Cola Cane’s / Chick-Fil-A - Lemonade Burger King - Coke Icee Wendy’s - Frosty Whataburger - Dr Pepper Taco Bueno - Strawberry Fanta Subway - Cookie

San Luis Opispo. Mountains, ocean, perfect weather. I’m sure I’d love it.

If Georgia and Texas play again in the playoff, we should just go back to AP and Coaches’ Poll voting for national champion. It would be a real “what are we even doing here?” moment.

Are we allowed to re-post some of the funny things we said on Twitter? I have at least two that need to be over here, for, you know, posterity and such.

I guess I’ll also do the favorite team intro list thing: MLS: Austin FC USL Champo: Louisville City USL League One: Portland Hearts of Pine (dream is to move to Maine one day) Premier League: Leicester City Outside of those, I prefer teams that are fun or cool in some way.

Introduce yourself with four footballers

And that’s why I love Cade Cowell

That was a delightful first half from the USMNT. Now I want to see Cade Cowell

So glad for a Pepi goal. He’s been working so hard

CONCACAF levels are rising rapidly in Kingston

When he scores Pepi just looks like he was born to put the ball in the net.

Bob Morocco is on Blue Sky and he is posting USMNT team shapes.

I’m not really sold on the concept of a “baby” walrus. Some animals are just old and always have been. The tortoise is another example.

I’m not sure I would mention them in a list of my favorite bands but I basically never skip a Bastille song when they come up in the shuffle

Since a bunch of you liked my post about Damian Las, I’ll assume that means you were asking for more thoughts on his play this season. He was very good overall and definitely one of the best keepers in the USL Championship. I also don’t think he’s ready to compete with Stuver.

Sometimes the ball goes in, sometimes it doesn’t. A bummer way to end a great season for the Boys in Purple. (I know this happened two days ago I wasn’t ready to talk about it)

First music rec on here: Isaac Sloan and the Sound Brigade. Very horn forward blues rock, sort of in a Lake Street Dive, Charles Bradley, Nathaniel Ratliff kind of space. A friend of a friend is in the band and they’re a lot of fun. This is my favorite from them: open.spotify.com/track/6YWSav...

MLS is finally responding to my demands for a Friday night showcase this post season. They should do it every week and market it as a Monday Night Football style showcase for the two teams, with the studio crew doing really focused stuff

Anyone on here made any “Mr. Blue Sky” jokes yet? No? I’ll go: “Jeff Lynne is not the first 70s rocker I would’ve expected to start a social media app, but he’s not the last either.”
