When they call it the world’s game they mean American financial institutions buy English clubs which acquire European clubs to hoard players from Africa and South America so the English club can secure a place in a Gulf State-run Super League that will inevitably play in America

What makes it even more pathetic is them being proud to write that none of it is reviewed by the editorial staff. Lazy and anti-labor on all levels.

MLS is using generative AI to write match recaps. Writers used to get paid freelance rates to do that. Hssssss.
