You can build a national team just out of players from PA/NJ/DE right now. Not a very good one...but you could fill a lineup.
At the coaches' convention earlier this month, the Union's Jon Scheer gave a remarkably transparent seminar on the club's renowned youth development system.
If you want to know some of the secret sauce, you'll learn some things here:

What’s the secret sauce at the Union’s youth academy? Here’s a taste of it.
Jon Scheer, the Union's head of academy and professional development, gave a gathering of coaches a behind-the-scenes look at how the club has built the best youth pipeline in the country.

Only last night I was showing my partner his "How to recreate Johnny Doc's signature look" post and this (which I've used in classes to show how mapping can be revelatory)
Interacted with him a bit on Twitter & always enjoyed his work & presence

We finally got gun-control.

the two most surefire ways to get Oscar nominations are:
1) put some bullshit about how wonderful movies are in your movie
2) make some shit about English royalty
