this dismissal of lower-league soccer is really offputting, but so typical of mls.
you don't hear other first-division managers speak of lower-league clubs this way elsewhere, maybe because they know they could play them in league play someday.
“It’s a second division. It’s not even close.”

You would NEVER see a usl franchise play an owner at GK.
Cosmos win but a bad night. Sembroni deserves a long ban. Subbing in the owner as goalkeeper with a 1-1 score at the half is a baffling move by NAFC. Bad looks for NISA tonight.

If you're an amateur club and don't want to or can't stream your USOC match, I get it.
However, if you're a pro club and aren't going to stream, then you shouldn't host.

Well, those two situations aren't remotely the same. Reynolds' money guaranteed Wrexham NOTHING.
I might even consider this argument to be ... not serious.
Pro/Rel guys: Fuck millionaire owners buying up USL teams and moving them to the MLS.
Pro/Rel guys: It's so cool that Ryan Reynolds bought Wrexham and is moving them up. We should have more of that.
These are not serious people.

Oh boy, an MLS account has thoughts.
This isn’t imploding because the stated values are wrong. One of the main reasons it’s imploding is that they AREN’T practicing what they are preaching.
Who could’ve guessed a 3rd division league started by pro/Rel propagandists would descend into owners taking over twitter accounts and ranting about how it’s all falling apart and trying to start a mutiny?
Everyone’s got such a good theory until they actually have to try it
