I need that Final Fantasy VII fanfare. Phase One of #KetoLife is finally done! I started this journey back in November right before Thanksgiving, and I was absolutely thrilled today to see the scale NOT tip over 200 for the first time in, well, quite a long time. […]
A lot can happen in a year. Having written a couple of long-form stories on Reddit and Sounder at Heart, I decided to start up this site to have a forum to write about legal issues impacting soccer in the United States (and abroad). At the time, it […]
So I’ve been doing the Keto diet since right before Thanksgiving (and let me tell you, passing up on my parents’ Mac & Cheese and stuffing wasn’t my idea of a proper holiday feast), and I’m pretty happy with the progress thus far. I didn’t weigh myself for […]
Happy New Years knuckleheads! Thanks to Brandy and Beth for making it a great time here at Ocean Shores. Only lost $10 at the casino, which I call a win. I don’t have anything else to add really. Hope 2019 is a great year for you all.
So, the Crew have been saved. Well, not quite, but it’s looking good. There’s actually a lot of work left to do, and plenty of unanswered questions. From not knowing when this deal will be finalized (and whether there will be a new stadium), to the background behind […]
Here is an odd-but-fun anniversary. Exactly one year ago today, I tweeted out my first comments on the NASL suit against (then) USSF. From then, I’d go on to cover the case, writing a story for Sounder at Heart and appearing on a couple of Podcasts to explain […]
Become a Patron: Note: I covered some of the following in my Periscope after the hearing. Well. I’m home back in Seattle after something of a whirlwind four-day trip to Ohio to check out Columbus and cover the Motion to Dismiss hearing. I was hoping to do […]
Peace out Columbus! As I said on Twitter: Never fly to Chicago on United. Flight debacles notwithstanding, I had a great time in Columbus the last four days; thanks to everyone who showed me around. It was nice to put faces to Twitter/Reddit/BigSoccer names. On the way to […]
Whew! After a 12-hour ordeal, I finally got into Columbus around 1:00 p.m. local time Sunday. I checked into to my room; thanks to German Village B&B for the set up. I’m staying in the German Village (‘natch) which is located right on the edge of Downtown Columbus. It’s a […]
Dearest, After a long trek, I have finally made it. I made a questionable decision riding the public transport at this late hour. Though the trip was mercifully short, the men of questionable character (and hygiene) made for an arduous journey. Unfortunately, morale is low here. The […]
Been a busy week, and out here we’ve got the Cascadia Derby tomorrow afternoon. Tonight, I relax.
Ah, the end of vacation. It always brings a sense of dread to get back to the routine. Except when you’re coming back from Las Vegas that is. The difference between a trip to Sin City and say, camping (aside from the prevalence of the cosmetically enhanced), is […]
No, it’s not just the title of a terrible Chevy Chase movie (seriously, what was he thinking). I’m off for a fun little jaunt to Las Vegas for a long weekend. Drinks, bets and questionable behavior are all on the menu. The Sounders 2 are taking on the […]
I’m here at CenturyLink field, and I am taking in the game from a different view: The Press Box. I’ve been credentialed for the rest of the year, so I’ll be working some games from up above. It’s been awhile since I’ve worked games from the media side, […]
Well, the weekend is finally here, and looks like we won’t be having any last-minute legal issues to deal with. Hopefully everyone is able to enjoy their weekend watching soccer or hanging out with the fam and/or friends. If you’re traveling, or would like something to listen to, […]
Hope everyone is enjoying lots of soccer and nice(ish) weather. Big week ahead with the plaintiffs’ response to PSV/MLS motion to dismiss, and the Status Conference scheduled to happen midweek. My updating will be somewhat sporadic, as I’ll have my Munchkin all week (thoughts and prayers appreciated 😬😁), […]
I considered spending today digging around the Delaware State website to find information about the MLS corporate structure, but I quickly realized that sounded like a terrible way to spend a Saturday. So I decided to get outside, enjoy a nice drink and cigar, and watch some soccer. […]
I’m over here on the other side of the mountains in Wenatchee, for my Munchkin’s fifth birthday party. I have to say I killed it gift-wise. If you are looking for a reasonably priced gift for kids, two words: Walkie Talkies. Kids went absolutely nuts for them. For $20, […]
Always a good time spending 90+ minutes chatting about, well, just about everything. Had a good discussion about the #SaveTheCrew happenings, D.C. United being sold (with a $500 million valuation; I’ll have more to say about *that* later), as well as our depression over the start to the […]
Whew, what a day! Signed up a new client, got a lot of work done, and found some time to write about the latest soccer happenings! Unfortunately no Sounders or Munchkin this weekend, but I figure I’ll be able to entertain myself. Starting…now! […]
