It's time for #MLSCup & #MLSCupPlayoffs to be scrapped. It has served its purpose in the early years. A proper title race among 30 MLS teams will bring out the best of all franchises.

Did VAR check that studs up challenge on Farsi & if so has video of that discussion been released? #Crew96

Oh God

When a league: 1) Allows a team to ignore Roster Rules 2) Use sponsors to bring players in 3) Not announce the qualification process until after said team has done something notable 4) Give spot to said team, while ignoring years of results Your league might be corrupt 🤷🏻‍♂️

When MLS hired a consultant a few years ago, it told them to either drop Supporters Shield or MLS Cup. MLS ignored the decision.

This is like debating whether you earned a promotion or not in your company.

Neither this schmuck nor I make the rules. MLS has always put stars on kits for MLS Cup winners. Not Shield winners. This guy does not understand the assignment.

#Messi & Miami played only six Western Conference teams once. Were there other teams that had a stronger schedule than Miami? #MLSCupPlayoffs #SupportersShield

Seeing way too many #AllForCincy fans not getting it on Supporters Shield. Here's a dumb down metaphor. Winning the Shield is like getting As on your assignment throughout the year. But your teacher told you it's your final exam performance that determines if you pass.

Always fascinating to me, the width and breath of the sport in the US. I know there are those that want to bottle it up and "own it all," but something good to be said about America for all this below.

“We just don’t like the best of three. I think both other options are better. Most of the guys go that way.” Confusing ⁦Major League Soccer⁩ playoff format a source of frustration for ⁦LAFC⁩ and ⁦LA Galaxy⁩ latimes.com/sports/soccer/…

#Crew96 have defensive issues. They have offensive issues. Thank God #cf97 is making mistakes for Crew to stay in the game.

@Benji_GG Is it though? Are more people going to care about a team potentially getting relegated from the USL championship and that said team potentially folding.? I don’t mind it, but boy am I skeptical it’ll doing anything to truly move the needle for soccer in the US. Hope I am wrong.

Plenty of people care about their teams in the current system.

Nordecke pays Haslams $10,000 to support USOC.

If the #Crew96 relocates to Cleveland (which I still find unlikely but my God the flirting that Haslam & co are exhibiting) I will say this opens up for USL expansion to Columbus. Some billionaire could even buy LDC or HCS.

So many variables. The biggest one is WILL Apple renew its partnership with MLS in 2032? Leagues Cup, Messi, etc haven't moved the needle for MLS. USL doesn't need to compete. They need to be their authentic selves.

Canadians are tougher than MLS snobs, eh MLS Moves?

If anyone says they won’t watch MLS because of the calendar change then you were never a true fan.
