I'm not sure if this includes any GAM converted from the Klauss deal; it depends on when the deal paid out, but I've asked. Going 3/3 vs 2/4 also means they have $1 million less designated GAM, and then the rest is on Teuchert, Löwen, Wallem, and Ostrák's contracts.

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.”

Inter Miami became the latest team to become wallpaper in Trump’s White House. Even by the standards of this administration, and even by the standards of American soccer, it was a truly bizarre thing to watch.

USLPA Statement on USHQ's Union-Busting Tactics To our Supporters, The timing and tone of US HQ's communication is crystal clear - an effort to scare players out of exercising their rights. This is classic union-busting in action. Their letter attempts to inject fear and confusion into the bargaining process while misrepresenting what is actually on the table. It spins numbers and selectively frames proposals in a way that ignores the broader context of negotiations. Unfortunately for League HQ, our players know exactly what has been put on the table. The Players Association has been transparent with membership every step of the way, and players are fully aware of their rights and the realities of these negotiations. The bigger question is why a professional soccer league is warning players about the consequences of a strike instead of addressing why so many players felt compelled to authorize their bargaining committee to call one if necessary. If anything, this kind of pressure campaign only reinforces why players voted to provide strike authorization in the first place. They're making workers sound unreasonable for simply asking to be paid a living wage, when the reality is some players in this league could potentially qualify for food assistance programs. This is what management does-but players remain committed to ensuring that no member of the USPA is left in a vulnerable situation. With appreciation for your continued support, USL Championship Players
Statement from the USLPA:
“The bigger question is why a professional soccer league is warning players about the consequences of a strike instead of addressing why so many players felt compelled to authorize their bargaining committee to call one if necessary.”
It's been slowly building to this point. The USLPA authorized a strike last week, but they hadn't taken that step yet.
You would think
"They were gonna hit us if we didn't hit them, because they're crazy."
"The Dow is at 50,000."
"You'll be totally safe with immunity or you'll have guaranteed death."

It really should not be this hard…
