The Rapids are playing somewhere between Mastroeni and the Whitecaps. Like they're not as bad as they were under Mastroeni, but they're not gonna challenge for the playoffs (like the Caps did and will)

Hudson came in and said they were gonna play attacking soccer and I'm not seeing any of that right now. We'll see though; MLS is crazy

The trumpet player at the Tauro v Dallas match is almost certainly 100% drunk and inexperienced with the instrument

Here is TFC president Bill Manning saying almost outright that the moves made by ATL and LAFC have been a driving force pushing TFC to keep improving despite recent successes

Manning warns that MLS "is not a league that you can take your foot off the gas." To that end, he and Bezbatchenko are putting together a roster that it feels can sustain this incredible run that the team has been on for the past two seasons.

"How can we continue to play at that level, at that pace? You need challenges. You need teams within the league [raising] the bar, like Atlanta [United] and LAFC are doing. We're seeing that that saying, 'We can't take a rest.' We have to continue to [strengthen]," Manning said.

It doesn't look like the Red Bulls are on TV.

Edit: Ah, the game isn't until 10 EST.

Talked to my LAFC rep about my season tickets. It's gonna be on the expensive side, but I'm gonna be at about 15-16 rows from the pitch. Spending all my recreational money for this year. Aww yeah!

Kinda hard to get excited about CONCACAF games, but still wishing luck to the MLS teams.

I was worried the Youtube logo would clash. Those jerseys suck. Pretty sure that's a super generic Adidas template too. Adidas facing mailed it in if those are legit.

There any good mls podcasts to listen to on my commute? I sneak in highlights and news at work but it'd be easier to have something to listen to.

I listen to ExtraTime Radio as an MLS focused podcast. Max & Herc is also very good. Grant Wahls Planet Futbol is another one, but talks about European/International soccer a lot as well. Alexi Lala's also started a new podcast recently which I enjoy, but he is a very polarizing figure.

Forgot to come into this thread after this game. I was there at the game and I think your assessment is dead on. All this talk about more attacking and I guess in the first half maybe there was some of that, but at the end of the match, it's still the same old Rapids not getting a goal. Hopefully they'll gel a little and get better.

Edit - Also, it was super cold out there, but I stayed the entire match.

Cool. I'll check em out.

ETA- Down payment on season tickets officially paid. Third row near mid field. I kind of overdid it for having never been to a soccer game before, but I'm all in.

LAFC jersey leaked in LA Times article a day ahead of big unveiling. Oops.

"It's fantastic," he said, swiping through cellphone photos. "It may be the best jersey of the entire season."

The gestation period of the LAFC jerseys lasted more than two years from concept to creation, the delivery delayed slightly while the team finalized a sponsorship deal with YouTube TV, which will splash its logo across the front.

"We kind of feel like the jersey is the crown jewel," Walker said. "It's the embodiment and personification of what the team wants to represent and how they look.
