Seriously though it is pretty amazing to see the level at which Atlanta fans are huffing their own farts. I watched some ATL equivalent of Arsenal Fan TV after the game. If it had been done as a parody it could've been funny, but no these dudes were serious.

NYCFC's owners are worth a trillion dollars. Maybe they should build their club a stadium instead of having them play on a baseball infield like a U-12 boys team recreation tournament or the Oakland Raiders.

Maybe they should buy some good players and build a decent league instead of the U-12 level play they've had for 23 years counting.

Well, it was fun while it lasted.

e: Actually, the games will still be on WSTR if you live in Cincinnati proper.

I wonder if FCC knew about DC’s troubles yesterday before they signed on.

ESPN+ with a VPN looks to be the answer for all involved though, aggravating as it is

I think ESPN+ is actually cheaper even without the SG discount, plus it’s useful for all sorts of things.

Just get ESPN+ and don't watch your home team's away games for a year, they'll get the hint and you'll get a much, much better service with an absolute shitload of excellent content.

Do you not get the local OTA (and presumably cable). channel that is still going to be broadcasting FCC games there? Because if not then wow that's the worst own goal Cincy will score all year.

There is some lack of clarity about whether or not I can actually watch the games on Star 64. I stream my cable through the app the cable provider uses here (spectrum), and there are rumors that will not actually work as people had similar issues last year against LAFC since streaming rights were strictly YouTubeTV.

Its not an issue for the home games of course, but there is only one away game on national TV this year, and I will be out of town a few home matches. But if it turns out I cant stream Star64 out of the spectrum app due to FloSports, it will be pretty lame.

Atlanta fans are batshit. One punched me in the chest when I wouldn’t high-five him after the final. Sorry bro, but I’m not gonna celebrate with you in your stadium after watching the team that I travelled across the country to see absolutely poo poo the bed.

Openly calling themselves MLS 3.0 and even putting it on their tifo (which is assisted by the FO as they’re given a budget and space to work in) is fascinating and awful to watch. They just don’t get it.

I've watched a lot of trash football and loved it but I'm not sure I've ever seen anything as satisfying as the first goal. indepdendiente was faking injuries and poo poo ten minutes in.

The best part is that they announced their intention to play at Lockhart Stadium before the Fort Lauderdale City council has even voted on the competing proposals between Team Beckham and the USL group looking to revive the Strikers in the USL with a bunch of retail development around the stadium.

Either some people got bribed or Inter Miami is reallllllllllllllly counting the proverbial chickens before they've hatched.

I think that by announcing their intention they're trying to sweeten the pot for the decision in Fort Lauderdale but yeaaaaaah not sure they entirely thought this through.
