    What tie are you trying to do between these things? Council didn't want either of them, but they have to put this on the ballot.

    We are throwing a bigass soccer party at Rustic Tap all day on 3/9 during a four letter festival that costs a bunch of money if you say it by name.

    Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy. Interesting to see the strong comments from Casar, who seemed pretty quiet through the whole deal up to this point.

    DBG is also super anti-Austin. Sounds like El Matador is the group to hang with if I come up for any games next year.

    Austin Anthem hosting a food drive for Central Texas Food Bank at Haymaker in conjunction with USMNT vs Panama on Sunday. https://medium.com/austinanthem/central-texas-food-bank-drive-c0f6b7804283
  6. MS 150 finishing there again this year, but I’ve heard they are looking for new locations after this one. Epstein might have more money to fix the track if he’d stop wasting it on garbage petitions to try and stop MLS.
  7. That’s a great report. And good changes. Yet, somehow Greg Guernsey remains employed.

    Wait, I’m pretty sure that wasn’t actually 6. Good schtick. Was in a meeting with CM Flannigan today and he tried to start up a “7-4” chant. I laughed.

    Yup yup. Zanates, Grackles and Trash Birds are all acceptable. Crowd crushed it tonight. So loud. And, I'm pretty sure Alexi Lalas and I are now bros for life.

    They are hoping to start academy in 2019. I don’t see how they hire a senior team coach before 2020. Way too early to speculate.

    For the official festivities and broadcast. Doors open at 3. We are pregaming starting at 1.

    Alexi Lalas in town tonight. Wonder if something is going on tomorrow?

    Mayor's not worried, we're not worried. Way more interested in the news about the team starting to build the front office staff. Also did a FB live broadcast from McKalla on New Year's Day. It's hard to believe that mess of a site is going to turn into the renderings posted above before long, but it's very exciting!

    Garbage group. Love that they don’t even identify themselves.

    There’s a thread for this shit in a different forum. Also HAR HAR HAR EVERYTHING THE CITY DOES SUCKS is the lowest and least productive form of discourse.

    From Austin Anthem. Today was a good day, gang. https://medium.com/austinanthem/another-step-closer-to-our-very-own-mls-team-9b970a747967
  17. Now holding open tryouts in Iowa. I assume that anyone who makes the team has to buy their own bus pass to Austin.

    @wood Hypocritical like a guy from Columbus who was coordinating with Linda Curtis on opposition to the Austin deal suddenly upset about "out of towners" organizing against Columbus?
  19. We need a new land development code before we get decent mass transit, regardless of how good or bad those in charge are. Hopefully, we are finally working on these things in tandem since Prop J got shot down.
  20. I do like the vision of the Cap Metro CEO. I hope he gets some things done before the good old boy network runs him off. Think he’s too east coast to last for a long time, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
  21. Yeah, this exactly. Not sure what the other guy's point was.
  22. While this petition has a vague exemption for ACL and Trail of Lights, it’s definitely aimed at stopping the creation of such entertainment events in the future that would compete with COTA. Which is the real purpose of this petition - not the soccer stadium. ” Part 5. This ordinance shall apply to any sale, lease, conveyance, mortgage, or other alienation of any City-owned land that is or will be used as a sports stadium, sports facility, sports arena, and/or entertainment stadium, entertainment facility or entertainment arena regardless of the effective date of the sale, lease, conveyance, mortgage, or other alienation, except that this ordinance shall not apply to periodic events, such as the Austin City Limits Music Festival or the Trail of Lights, that have been held since prior to January 1, 2018.”

    If you want in early on being part of the supporter arts, Austin Anthem is having our first volunteer organization meeting today from 2-4 on the rooftop at Whole Foods downtown.

    Hagbard probably has the best answer here, but in short, it's because "That's what MLS needs it to be."

    I'm willing to bet money that those people are wrong. There may be local investors, but PSV will be involved.
