Hear me out, it's "the legacy kit" and in many ways a typo is a good representation of the legacy of THE Miami FC

Even the Israeli hot dog is a war crime. I shudder to think what they'd try and do as an Australian one, it should be a sausage sizzle but they wouldn't do that.

USL emails players about union resignation procedures as strike looms The email, sent to all USL Championship players, includes an β€˜FAQ’ section on crossing a potential picket line

The USL’s union-busting tactics won’t intimidate the players.

It’s time for the league to stop the games, negotiate a fair contract, and pay these workers a living wage. Solidarity with USL players!

Remember certain union busting tactics are illegal under the NLRA. USL HQ is no longer acting in good faith it’s clear they won’t negotiate I won’t blame the players for striking immediately

So USL HQ has signaled they believe they don’t need the players and intent to run a scab league if the strike happens. USLPA should probably just strike now this is no longer good faith from USL HQ. I will not cover a scab league

This is how close China's win was in extra ends over Italy. JUST enough.
