Ended the game with 1 shot on goal. Against a bad Portland team with the 5th most goals allowed in the league (tied)

In a game they pretty much must win, the Rapids have 1 shot on target at the midpoint of the 2nd half

Ok fellow sickos, I'm looking at two non-league games next Saturday in London and need your input. FA Trophy 1st Round: 7th tier Einfield Town vs 7th tier Hanworth Villa OR Essex Senior League (Level 9): Clapton CFC vs. Benfleet at the Old Spotted Dog Ground, the oldest first team pitch in London

The UEFA Conference League is back tonight, and to celebrate, I have created the world's trickiest flatpack/football crossover quiz: Ikea or Conference League! I give you a name. You tell me if it's an Ikea product or Conference League team! passmode.shop/ikea/

passmode.shopIKEA or Conference League?20 names. Each is either an IKEA product or a club from this season's UEFA Conference League. Can you tell which? Take the quiz and share your score.

Did anyone else notice that after the first Minnesota goal, set up by Whittaker's disastrous backpass, that Phillip ran over and put his arm around Morgan, seemingly to bring him into the team huddle, and Morgan shook him off and went the other way?

I can't imagine Smith rated well

I wanted to "respectfully" share with you the reaction of the architect of the 134 and 135 initiatives. They talk a big game about what they want you to "think" they want to accomplish, but the tone and the slurs are the real story.

National soccer media needs to do a better job covering what’s going on in Austin. Entire fan section walks out mid match and it’s absolute crickets out-there. If you’re covering the match and focusing on Nashville’s win or Austin’s loss you are not doing your job.

Quoting from my blog preview last night: "1-1 draw, goal by Phillip. This even feels a bit optimistic given our recent play and how good San Jose is, but I think the home field advantage is enough to get us a point. I can't see a win though." view-from-the-couch.blogspot.com/2026/10/the-...

As a fan of the graphic novel I enjoyed the first two episodes of the new Get Jiro! animated series on HBO Max. I can't remember if the 'Al Pastor Pastors' food truck was in the book but that's a great joke for a food-themed series.

The reason I love soccer is that it really is a universal language. Pretty much anywhere I've travelled I've found a game or a shop or a magazine or whatever celebrating the local game. I've had great experiences with random people because of the game.

i challenge you to post one optimistic take or belief today on bluesky this needn’t be toxic positivity, just good ol’ run of the mill optimism/hope in the face of a torrential downpour of doom

Meanwhile the Rapids as a team have scored 6 goals since Navarro was traded…

Matthew Doyle@mattdoyle.bsky.social

After his goal tonight Rafa Navarro is amongst the league leaders with 15 goals this year, but you wouldn't know that from the MLSsoccer stats page. Rather than list him once, at 15 goals, with two teams by his name, they list him twice – once on 10 goals for the Rapids, once on 5 for St. Louis.

Zeros vs. Spoiled Children and the Cougs vs. Arizona on the TV. Two great Pac-12 matchups on a fall Saturday night. Washington should be playing Cal or Oregon State tonight. This is what they took from us! #Pac12AfterDark

This is a hard one to answer as I watched the video game industry grow alongside me. Probably the earliest game I can remember playing was Hunt the Wumpus, but it might have been Zork.

What's your "origin" video game? Most gamers have a lot of favorite games, sure, but there's always one that basically 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴 you: the game that flipped that little switch in your brain and made into a life-long gamer.

This is all laid out in the article! And there's no paywall! I am once again begging everyone to READ THE ARTICLE & FIND OUT WHAT'S ACTUALLY GOING ON before reposting with "We're all so cooked, our votes won't be counted"-type comments. THAT is actual voter suppression.

Something deeply American about how when this happens you hear people say “I’ll never use that corporate sponsored name, I’m gonna keep using the old corporate sponsored name”
