now do soccer
This is a MAJOR problem in sports! For how long the games are...so little of it is actual "game play". Definitely creating an opportunity for new leagues (and showing the need for alternative ways to monetize beyond just media rights & ads).

CF Montreal owner Joey Saputo announces club is for sale, quite forcefully does not rule out relocation. "If the club doesn’t find a local buyer and I get an offer where the club needs to be relocated, then I have no choice." With @tombogert: nytimes.com/athletic/7768367…

David Lee and Peter Vermes could do the funniest thing.
BREAKING: Sporting KC has fired head coach Raphael Wicky. SKC finished bottom of the Western Conference in his lone season in charge.

Fire blew three separate leads in a game for the first time since 2015. Here's what we learned from a loss that could have been prevented from a "normal level of defending," per Berhalter. meninred97.com/what-we-learn… #cf97 #VamosFire

And shot at halftime, with nephew in tow
Small personal note: Happy anniversary to my lovely wife Jensine! I knew you were a keeper from the time you let me drag you to Bridgeview for a game, now almost a decade ago. From then, through COVID wedding to now, I've been grateful for every minute I've had with you.

Regardless, Charlotte finished 3-3 so Fire have home advantage in the 1st round of the postseason. #cf97 #VamosFire

And Fire go down for the 1st time this game. Mendes puts the Crew up 4-3 in the 90+3' of play.

That puts total Fire regular-season attendance at 465,683 (team already broke all-time record last game); averaging out to 23,284 -- new full-season record for #cf97
Tonight's attendance at SeatGeek: 19,419. Believe it's the highest at SeatGeek since the Fire left. #cf97 #VamosFire

Am being told that's 6 straight home games where Maren's scored; most for the Fire since Nikolić in 2018. #cf97 #VamosFire
Maren Haile-Selassie! Lucky goal 13 on the season! 3-2 for #cf97 as we head to half

🌟 The youngest player in the SPFL era to score four goals in a match. Dylan Borso 🇺🇸
Greenock Morton were 2-0 up when reduced to 10 men in the 26th minute. They then fell 3-2 behind, only to come back and beat Stenhousemuir 4-3! Dylan Borso, a 20-year old on loan from Chicago Fire, scored all 4 Morton goals. He’s the youngest player to score four in a Scottish league match since Martin Boyle as a 19-year old for Montrose in 2013. Borso is therefore the youngest player to score four times in a match in the SPFL era.

And just 8 mins later Columbus get one back but wouldn't entirely surprise me if it was called back. 1-1 for now in Bridgeview #cf97 #VamosFire
