Compared to what we've had in the past here at Snapdragon, this isn't the worst, but we'll still have some college football lines here for SDFC v Minnesota

Neutral site championship games are lame … especially when both teams are from the opposite coast. Knocking the @washingtonspirit.com fans out of this game makes it less fun for everyone.

Very nice to see @mnaurorafc.bsky.social get a shout-out in @theathletic.com's story on the best women's sports cities in the United States.
They've been a phenomenon in the #USL-W, huge credit to @ayoch.bsky.social, @wesburdine.bsky.social and the whole team there.

What makes a great women’s sports city? We ranked the top 10 in the U.S.
The Bay Area earned the top spot in our first-ever city ranking, and the No. 2 city might surprise you.

Every case i see for “mls growth” prioritizes wealth at the expense of fans. Bigger franchises fees, more money, more subscriptions, more private equity.
