I'm so mad that Atlanta sucked rear end both times I saw them play in DC this year, cause they can play some of the best looking soccer in MLS when they're clicking

Because they're sharing it with the Atlanta Falcons.

I thought they were only allowing teams with SSS plans. What happened to that part?

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes, look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.

that also was a nice goal

I'm not sure whether that was a dummy from Martinez or a backheel assist but EITHER WAY.

If you were the league office, would you really have turned down Arthur Blank because the shiny new, centrally located stadium that he controls revenue in (which is they key reason the league wants SSS - the atmosphere thing can be addressed via skilful curtaining as in BC Place) is also used by the NFL team he owns? Even if you DIDN'T expect Atlanta to go nuts embracing the team on a level we haven't seen since Seattle invented soccer?

At this point I hope they somehow draw Toronto in the playoffs because a two game series against TFC with both teams in form will be LIT, both on the field and in the stands.

also because Garber really wanted to be in business with Blank, and just let it slide in exchange for a fat expansion fee

Hopefully that would look like last year's ECF.

LA starting with Kempin, Diallo, Romney, and Steres in the back so expect to see Seattle score a bunch of sloppy goals.

Surprising no one, Atlanta scores a minute into their home game against the Revs. I was late getting home so I didn't see the goal but apparently it was a doozy.

VAR is good, refs are bad. There shouldn't be so many VAR in a game.

Refs don't even have to make calls anymore. Just wait for VAR to say there is a clear and obvious error and then you get as many video watches as you want.
