  1. I agree. I would think they would want both UA and ASU, not to mention the fifth largest market in the US. Both schools have been in the same conference together since 1931. I cant see them splitting up now.
  2. Red Bulls supporters group is walking out after the anthem
  3. One of the latest Pac12-Big 12 rumors Ive heard is that the Big 12 is only interested in Colorado and Arizona and not Utah or Arizona State.
  4. I know Klein said he would step down if the Galaxy missed the playoffs, but I dont know if supporters are willing to wait that long. If there are more LAFC fans at the Sports Park than Galaxy fans, Klein should step down immediately, rather than wait until the end of the season. You never want more away fans at your stadium, especially when its your rival.
  5. I mean, there is a reason its called Salt Lake City and not Fresh Water Lake City
  6. LAFC and... checks notes.... FC Cincinnati are the lone remaining unbeaten clubs in MLS. Cincinnati held on for a 1-0 victory over Philadelphia tonight. FCC plays at St Louis next week, possibly for the Supporters Shield lead. St Louis and Seattle are scoreless at the half. A loss or draw by St Louis gives Cincinnati, the supporters shield lead.
  7. Down on the farm tonight, the Reds AA club, Chattanooga Lookouts were No Hit by the Angels AA club, Rocket City Trash Pandas. The Trash Pandas lost 7-5 though. All 7 runs came in the same inning off of 5 walks, 4 hit batters, an error and a wild pitch.
  8. Could the NCAA allow them to move their football to DI (FCS) and remain at D-2, similar to Dallas Baptist for baseball and several hockey schools? That might make the most sense to me is have their football in the Big Sky.
  9. Thursdays Phillies Home Opener against the Reds has been postponed to Friday due to impending weather. The Reds finale today with the Cubs was postponed due to weather as well. That'll be made up in a doubleheader in September. Two days off now for the Reds.
  10. MLS just added Ticketmaster as their official ticketing partner a month ago for a multiyear deal, however the tickets I purchased recently for an FC Cincinnati match still went through Seat Geek.
  11. St Louis suffers their first defeat of the season at the hands of Minnesota. Minnesota, LAFC and Cincinnati remain unbeaten. With Cincinnatis win tonight, they are now in first place in the Eastern Conference, for the first time in MLS, and are one point behind St Louis in the Supporters Shield standings.
  12. Posted in the college basketball thread, but I think it fits here too. A couple of potential things with this weekends Final Four when it comes to Florida Atlantic. If Florida Atlantic somehow wins the NCAA Tournament, CUSA would sweep the postseason mens tournaments. (North Texas won the NIT, and Charlotte won the College Basketball Invitational.) All three schools move to the American Athletic Conference next season. Also, If Florida Atlantic and Miami play each other for the title, it will mark only the third time two teams from the same state play each other in the championship game. The previous two were Cincinnati and Ohio State in 1961 and 1962 (Cincinnati won both).
  13. Couple things at stake this weekend. First, a potential for a CUSA sweep. North Texas won the NIT, and Charlotte won the College Basketball Invitational. If Florida Atlantic somehow wins the NCAA tournament we will have a sweep of the tournaments by CUSA. Second we could see two schools from the same state play each other in the Championship game (Florida Atlantic and Miami). Only other time that happened was in 1961 and 1962, when Cincinnati beat Ohio State both times.
  14. Actually the new Burger King logo more closely resembles the 1994 logo that updated the 1968 logo. 1969-99 1994-99 2020-pre As for the Pepsi change, the colors seem too dark for me. I do like that the better globe returned though. The font seems off to me to.
  15. Ive been told all MLS fanbases hate Seattle.
  16. Not really. Cincy fans are laughing that some Nashville fans actually made the shirt. We weren't hurt by the shirt or its message at all. Seattle however had a big tizzy when we told them to **** themselves.
  17. When it comes to rivals for Cincinnati in the USL we had Pittsburgh, Indy, Louisville, and Saint Louis. Although they werent in the USL yet, Detroit was also kind of a rival because of an Open Cup match. When Cincinnati moved up to MLS, Columbus became our regional rival. Chicago and New York Red Bulls became rivals because of the Open Cup (somehow Minnesota didnt stick). Charlotte isnt really a rival. Its been forced upon us because of the whole Queen City thing. As much as I would like St Louis City to become a rival, i dont think it will stick with St Louis being in the western conference. If we would play them every year then maybe it could stick.
  18. Am I the only one who hates the black in the Reds uniforms? Ive loved the red/white that they have had prior to 1999.
  19. Because Nashville has been bouncing between the Eastern and Western Conference, they dont really have an MLS rival. Nashville fans have been trying hard for it to be Cincinnati because of our past together in the USL, but a lot of Cincy fans want no part in having Nashville as a rival. Its why Nashville supporters as well as the team itself were talking alot last week, but Cincy supporters and the team were very quiet. Many of the supporters of other teams are constantly like, "Yall got three wooden spoons" and bringing up how bad we were in the past as if we are still bad today. We are a completely different team now and they all seem to be stuck in the past rather than the present.
  20. Not so fast. Like the Athletics, Oaklands USL club has stadium issues. Last year the Roots postponed a game because their turf was unplayable. So the Roots are basically renting from Laney College, but because of the track around the field, the Roots have their own turf that they lay over the Laney College turf and track. The Roots are looking at another site to build a new stadium of their own and have narrowed it down to a parking lot at the Coliseum and a former Naval base at Alameda Point. The new stadium however is not a permanent solution and is only a modular build until they can find a more permanent home.
  21. At this point im pulling for Florida Atlantic, just to see the NCAA turn upside down
  22. Im actually very scared of St Louis. FCC plays them in three weeks
