That is such an important point about “absorb[ing] instability,” especially in the numerous cases of clubs folding unexpectedly and leaving players in the lurch.
USL needs to realize fans are invested in the players. We want them to have security in their careers so they can perform at their best.
Now why would the league take any accountability?
Remember when Lexington was in League One and spent all that money and had one of the best rosters (on paper) in the league just to not make playoffs?
Wouldn’t it be funny if that happened again? Just a thought
It’s Whiskey Friday with Tony Dokoupil, and buddy, I’m all out of Tony Dokoupil
The USL Players Association's statement about demonstrating on the opening weekend of the 2026 USL Championship season amid an ongoing dispute with the league over a new collective bargaining agreement
The referee blows for the start of #LEXvLOU and the players, acknowledging the ongoing labor dispute, #StandUpForStandards, standing in place and not actually kicking off for almost a minute.
Yeaahhhhh didn’t love that one
With a CBA deal still pending, Lexington and Louisville begin the season with a minute-long moment of stillness.
What’s it like to be god’s favorite
Miami FC you were supposed to be the chosen one out of the Miami clubs!!
Insane how many people are letting a fucking nazi tattoo slide in 2026.
That should’ve been enough. Full stop.
the photo edits aren’t doing these kits justice in the original post but they’re pretty damn good:
It’s 2026. The World Cup is in North America. The top flight league has so drastically cut its own media presence and has a fully paywalled broadcast that’s effectively made it invisible to casual soccer fans. Second tier league is openly trying to bust a union.
I would be so rich if it wasn't for these stupid morals
ICYMI: The USL emailed every Championship player an FAQ doc that included guidance on “crossing a picket line” and “Union membership resignation.”
An active player said teammates couldn’t find it until they checked spam. “I just think it’s a bunch of bullshit.”

I’m not disagreeing, I’m just simply stating what they originally had planned and why they had to change it. Let’s hope so.
Pride night was supposed to be when the Tormenta game was scheduled. I imagine when that got pulled they already had that sponsorship/contract scheduled, so they had to do their best with this one.
“Whats that book called? The depressing German one? The one where
FUCK
My bank account for sure
