    As a member of the Austin soccer media, I would like to express my professional opinion on last night - THAT WAS FUCKING AWFUL

    8:48 kick, yo. Moved it from Saturday to make it a National TV game.
  3. I saw Don Walser open for Johnny Cash at the Erwin Center many years ago. That was a badass show.
  4. I did certainly appreciate the Save Austin Now ghouls using those Nextdoor threads to push their petition.

    That's the big question - How much do we trust Claudio's words? If we sign two more guys during this window, it will be completely consistent with what he's said all along about the roster build. If we don't sign anyone, then we have a low rent squad. There are a lot of factors that come with bringing a player into camp - player, agent, family, buying team, selling team, etc. Sean Rubio's said that he's more surprised that any deals happen than any time one falls through. THAT SAID, there should be several deals in the works right now, with a couple to come through soon. As far as keeping secrets, Cecilio and Pochettino were telegraphed. Djitte and Kolmanic came out of nowhere. So we've done a little of both.

    Josh was noncommittal as shit about everyone else on the presser today, too. I’m more worried about Pereira/Gallagher than Djitte at this point. Luckily, Seattle has 12 healthy, eligible senior players. They’re worse off than we are on that front. Added some USL guys on an emergency basis just to field a squad.

    Whole pitch pulled up and being replaced today. Hopefully they get this under control.
  8. If I didn't live in District 6, I would find all this much funnier. As far as the campaign ammo, no reporter was interested in touching it and also it had a high potential of blowing up. "Former lost soul found Jesus and the Republican Party and became an upstanding member of society" appeals to a certain group.

    Liga MX requires all players all the way through the system, including the youth, to have unique numbers. If you’re not part of the first team then you get a three digit number.
  10. So I walk into Reale’s last night, look over at the bar, and don’t see MK for once. Then I see this tweet.
  11. They’re at 183 & Lake Creek now close to P Terry’s. Still pretty damn good.
  12. Seems like she's in the bar of Reale's (in the same parking lot) every time I pick up food to go from that place. Makes me want to reconsider our to-go choices.

    Never seen a team so committed to making the wrong decisions. Shoot when we should pass and pass when we should shoot, other than Portland and Colorado.

    I think he'll play some minutes. Also, we pretty much have NO OTHER OPTIONS. We don't even have enough healthy midfielders to give guys like Diego and Cecilio much of a rest.

    I must have asked where the goals were going to come from 20 times on the podcast during the off-season. Hate being right on this one. Feels like we have just enough players to be competent in attack but not enough depth to recover if any of them are out.

    The energy was pretty weird all night. Not our best performance as fans on the whole.

    Lotta familiar faces in this one.

    About 20,750. And it was bananas.

    God bless the beer soaked girl with the big boobs behind me in the SS.

    Green smoke tweet from Precourt. Expect an announcement in the morning.

    Looks like they pulled up the outside 18 yards of turf all the way around and replaced it between last week and this week.

    Our injury list for Sunday is not good. Also, y’all should come to 4th Tap on Wednesday at 6 and watch us talk Austin FC with Adrian Healey. https://soccersocialaustin.eventbrite.com
