For whoever is interested, a bunch of the new MLS kits have leaked, full launch was supposed to be 2/5.
Really not liking the new adidas template with the shoulder stripes. Thankfully it's sorta hidden in the LAFC kit.

I kiiiiiiiiiiinda like the RBNY one, but would have preferred a color swap. Red with black stripes.
speaking of the LAFC kit, i like that the YouTube sponsor logo is now gold. that looks smooth
Surprised they didn't announce their channel reached 1 million subscribers...rimshot...
oh man this gold logo plus the traditional gold 3 striped design (as opposed to this should style) would be the best kit in MLS, easily.
as is right now, i think vancouver's got the best though. miami should've been up there with their colour palette but they really dropped the ball on the design + qatar sponsorship (yuck)
bravo
yeah i thought they were going with some artisan sub-brand of bimbo, that would've been cool.
even with bimbo, they still a top 5 kit sponsor in the league just by virtue of not being a MLM/pyramid scheme/private health insurance/banking company
I assume it's to get the Latino audience. Now if they can only show the games outside ESPN+.
They are using the artisano brand on the away jerseys, the home are saying Bimbo
Very excited to see us hosting our match; I am not familiar with El Paso Locomotive, but we do have train tracks right outside the stadium...
That goal was sick.
Really hope some of these young talents pan out for the USMNT. A core of Pulisic, Sargent, Weah, Reyna, Dest, et al. seems very promising.

Big fucking yikes. Big fucking lol.
That might be enough to save NJ from whatever the fuck this is going to be.
I jumped outta my chair when I saw that goal yesterday. Amazing stuff by the youngster. can't wait to watch more of him
Doubt it. A friend of mine used to work for the guys doing the search, all they ever looked at were places RBNY couldn't get.
there's been murmurs here and there about something in the south bronx but it looks far away from fruition
The Red Bulls one would make a good secondary, alongside the full red one they aren't using anymore.
Why would they stop using the best jersey they ever made?
The stripes mess with some of them but the Revs, Minny, Colorado and Portland have solid versions of that template.
Just round it out with the red shorts please.
I hope their cherry blossom away kit that was apparently scrapped comes back next year.

Me: Here's hoping we can get it right this time.
Ron Howard: "They didn't."
The salary cap will finally top $10 million with the new CBA. I suppose it doesn't matter too much with how much is spent on DPs, but it feels like a significant milestone.
It means players can not only get paid more, but that guys that would normally require allocation money don't anymore. It raises the potential average level.
I'll believe it when I see it lol
I remember back when I first started paying attention to MLS and the cap was only $3 million. And I haven't been paying attention all that long!
it is significant, and it does seem like the money is spread out enough to make a difference across the roster. It's interesting that the league made sure to hang on to the right to severely restrict the third DP slot to young DPs if they feel the need to do so. I imagine whatever their u-22 initiative will be tested out at least for a few years at first. They clearly want to be in the buying and selling young Brazilian and Argentine players business (which makes sense if you want to be a selling league like they do).
I texted a friend today that their used to be players making ~$10k and as someone who only cared about World Cups until 2018 he was shocked.
Becoming South America's gateway to Europe is a smart play. I'm hoping the new Red Bull team in Brazil leads to a few transfers up here in time.
This took me by surprise a bit... seems like he'd be good but has been troubled by injuries in recent years. Not sure that's what you want when your other DP forward is Jozy Altidore
I also can't help but be a little bit cynical since he was a free agent after being released a few months early by his previous club (Espanyol). After the grueling transfer process of Pozuel last year they went and got Piatti for free.
a possible upside to this signing:
so basically have piatti as your third DP this season and then (if the U23 change to the third DP slot happens) buy him down next year below the threshold and get a U23 DP next year in a barco/almiron/rossi mold.
