Claudio Reyna did nothing about one of his club’s players sexually harassing staff, but is a big vigilante about decades-old incidents involving his professional rivals.

Sort of undermines the messaging around “Messi is right here in our league!!!” when Miami games are treated like a separate deluxe event that’s more important (and expensive) than regular MLS matches

It’s nice that at least some of the sponsors on MLS kits are still companies that sell actual products to ordinary people. I don’t need constant reminders of tech and finance dystopia, I want to consider purchasing Thomas English Muffins.

Inter Miami, the club that has done nothing in its brief history but finish bottom while cheating and currently sits last place in the conference, is being portrayed by ESPN right now as an emerging powerhouse based on (checks notes) winning two games in a row.

Aaron Long keeps his place in the squad through injury, Tyler Adams named captain, Tim Ream selected from the dead.

Rare to see recent RBNY climb back from an early goal like that. Rare to see recent RBNY adeptly close out a lead with 30 minutes to go like that.

They should fix the parking headaches at Red Bull Arena by building some type of rail-based transportation system that can move thousands of people at a time. It can pick up and drop people off from Harrison on a rolling schedule.

It’s unfortunate for Patryk Klimala that the only Red Bull capable of peeling out wide and putting in a dangerous cross to a post is…Patryk Klimala.

Another thing about Luquinhas, in the unlikely case you need more convincing:
Turning 26 this fall, having already done Europe, and without a realistic national team future, he’s primed to be a long-term building block for
#RBNY
rather than a upwardly-mobile transfer asset.

Accepting that this (unfortunately) is the most widely-viewed game in club history, there are so many other versions of RBNY that would have been better to show to the world than this one, this season…in that shirt.

Can confirm that Sean Davis received a three-year offer from the Red Bulls that was beyond what other MLS teams are allowed to offer salary-wise. Discussions with

were ongoing until this week, but in the end the midfielder has decided to move on.

Trying to be patient but it’s getting weird that RBNY is now halfway through preseason with no new sporting director or assistant coaches confirmed.
Especially odd given all the talk last year that 2024 would be a bold muscular New York Red Bulls with more resources on hand.

The Red Bulls are working to bring back the fullback who was benched in the playoffs for a center back who had never played the position before.
If your New Year’s resolution was to be less confused by the
#RBNY
offseason strategy, I have bad news.
Sources: New York Red Bulls closing in on a deal to acquire Kyle Duncan on loan with a purchase option.
Duncan, 25, left RBNY for Oostende last winter, returned on loan last summer. Has made 81 career apps with RBNY.

Must say, a floor of never missing postseason for over a decade is a far better barometer of club health and competitiveness than cobbling together a crap shoot playoff run once in a while.

It’s very funny to see people assume Jesse Marsch will give up an ascendant career in the Premiership so that he can spend four years getting heckled by PresidentPulisic_98 for only beating Nicaragua 2-0 instead of 5-0.
