USL terminates ownership of Rochester Rhinos.

There was a time when Rochester was the model minor league franchise and seemed to be poised to be the next MLS club.

Feilhaber's original comments.

The fact that Benny could rattle off 3 different players, two of whom are opponents in MLS, says a lot to me.

Also Jordan Morris turned down Werder Bremen to sign with Seattle.

Have you guys heard the quote from Chilean coach Jorge Sampaoli when asked about possession %?

One night, I went to a bar, I was with a woman. We talked all night. We laughed, we flirted, I paid for several drinks of hers.

At around 5:00AM, a guy came in, grabbed her by the arm and took her to the bathroom. He made lover to her and she left with him. That doesn't matter, because I had most of the possession on that night.

She's got a Gold Medal, a World Cup, is married to a (rather good looking) professional soccer player, and is only 25.

I think she'll be fine. She doesn't seem too broken up about it.

The fight between England, Canada, and the US to get their kid to play for them will be funny though.

Anyone here attended a USMNT game sitting in the Supporter's Section? I assume it's similar to a solid NCAA Hockey Student Section (everyone standing, lots of noise/energy, varying levels of alcohol consumption, ect.)...

American Outlaws has their presale for the US matches on Tuesday and am going to try for tickets in Chicago and Philly...

That's fantastic. I'd see the movie just on the strength of that opening. It reminds me of the Mike Tyson line: "everyone has a plan 'til they get punched in the mouth."

I am so stealing this for our eLynah discussion of advanced metrics.
