Why is Randell not available?

Grass is pretty dang green!

Landon Donovan had a take I actually agreed with on the other site yesterday.

Justice Department withheld and removed some Epstein files related to Trump An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.

🚨 An NPR investigation finds the public database of Epstein files is missing dozens of pages related to sexual abuse accusations against President Trump.

Other documents that mention Trump have been taken down (and some restored).

Ok so I’m not having internet issues then.

Dream start for MNUFC.

Loons 3 (Yeboah, Bongi, Ant) - Austin 0

Initial reaction: this will be fun!

Realization: I picked all Loons players because I know nothing about the rest of the league.

This is just a distraction from all the other dumb shit that Iowa Republicans are doing that’s actually harmful.

They’re just upset that he’s not in LA/NY/Miami but they need something more than that to write about for the next month +

I was wondering about that when I read the article…

Federal immigration raids put ‘fear’ into many Minnesota United players The Loons also have had foreign players say no to contracts because of the current situation.

“People are scared; we are, too.”

Article: Federal immigration raids in Minnesota has put 'fear' into #MNUFC players; and the situation has curtailed #Loons signings of foreigners this winter. Argentine midfielder Joaquin Pereyra shares his experiences and views.

Fuck my super right wing senators. They’re getting calls too.

And I can’t imagine they sell many lawn mowers in NYC

I’d like to sing Wonderwall with a large group of Loons fans in SKC.

I hope they remembered sunscreen. They might be out of practice this time of year.

Can’t wait to hear @loonybinpodcast.bsky.social talk about this!

Is the Great Divide Trophy up for grabs today? Or does that not apply because it’s playoffs?

This will be good

Such a waste of a golden opportunity.

I get the Tani move. But letting the best goalkeeper in the league go for free…

These windows of opportunity are so rare and this one closed in a blink of an eye.

MLS has enacted its "far, far, far" futuristic vision What a "competition calendar change" says about where MLS sees value, and who might bridle at the implications

NEW: MLS will become a summer-to-spring circuit beginning in 2027. It's the latest change as it aims to regularly "double" its fanbase...although the latest switch risks polarizing the league's longtime diehard supporters.

Use that $20 to go buy an over-the-air TV antenna!

PLUS! LAFC/Vancouver will have an extra 2 days of rest if we advance.

Wake me up when it’s over. 0-0 after 90’. Loons win in PKs

8:01!!

The boys record the podcast after the game tonight so we can listen tomorrow.

Final score: 0-0, Loons win in PK’s

@jonmarthaler.com do you know what the actual kickoff time is for the Loons tonight? I’m sure 8pm isn’t realistic due to FS1.

I’ve had the same thoughts

Annunciation ties unite Gophers, community in grief and hope After the shooting, players met victims while volunteering at Annunciation’s annual September Fest. “It was a very humbling experience,” linebacker Devon Williams said.

#Gophers ❤️‍🩹 Annunciation Church

Fletcher Merkel loved the USC upset, and it’s now a cherished memory after he died in mass shooting; former U lineman Matt Stommes was in sanctuary and protected others; PJ Fleck and players give back to the community.

Nobody talked about the impact that TV has on all of this. I’m sure the league’s TV partners don’t want games stretching out and overlapping with later games which happens in college.

Someone mentioned somewhere else that Mason Toye was once on this list
