I haven't watched Messi consistently over the last, say 5 years, but I watched when he played for PSG. He seems 1,000% happier in a lower-stress league and still performing at a high level. He has been able to run up and hug his kids after goals, doing superhero celebrations in their direction and more. He wasn't able to do that at previous clubs.

I will say this, he's been the best thing for MLS in their existence. He's going to take the game here to a different level.

Nice weekend stay in Chicago for the ladies. Got to see the Royals beat the Cubs on Friday. Watch the Air & Water show yesterday. Play Loyola today.

I wouldn't say very much.
Our all stars just beat theirs.
lol, an all star game

I like your enthusiasm and appreciate your support, but you clearly don't follow very closely. Liga MX is substantially better than MLS
Bump.

KC Wizards have 4 games left and probably need 9 points of of them to even have a shot - might take more than that.

If Vermes misses the playoffs again, is he gone?

Probably not, but probably should be. SKC needs a fresh vision.

I agree with both statements.
He won’t be gone. They’ll give him another year.
Should he be?
I dunno if busted Pulido, old ass Zusi and Johnny Russ, and lightweight Kinda will cut it.

I’m a Rapids fan. Fraser had to go, but I was sad about it. He’s a heck of a coach.

I’ve been impressed with SKc’s turnaround this year. It’s too bad I refuse to go sit outside here from July-September, to enjoy such a beautiful venue.

Saw a buncha people walking around wearing Messi jerseys today. Mostly kids.
I figure some families probably spent a whole lot of money to see him play tonight.
61,000 tickets sold and 60,000+ people have to be bummed.

Meh to the mehth degree.
And, based on FIFA precedent this means Asia or Oceania will host in '34. Guess what sportswashing, journalist-killing, oil nation has already put in a bid. Clue: It will mean another winter tournament.

What a effin' joke.

They did it.
Hosting San Jose tomorrow in the play-in.
If you're in the KC area, you should get yerself there.
