I present, complete with ready-made MLS partnerships, the five divisions for MLS.
The MLS season starts a week from today and Nashville SC takes the field on Tuesday in continental play.

With its best attacking trio in club history, the ceiling is sky high.

Get ready by reading @benwright.bsky.social ‘s excellent preview piece.

⚽️ 👕New kits from your reigning USL League One champions, One Knox SC.

Loooovvvee that they shot this on the re-opened Gay Street Bridge. 😍 The historic 128-year-old bridge in Knoxville officially re-opened last month, permanently for cyclists and pedestrians only, after being closed since 2024.

🥇 ⚽️ The Olympics are coming to Tennessee!

An incredible opportunity to showcase Nashville & GEODIS Park.

For those old enough to remember, this isn't Tennessee's first time hosting events. Whitewater events in '96 were held on the Ocoee River in TN.

Finally listened to this episode. By far my favorite soccer podcast episode in a long time.

I really hope these types of conversation episodes featuring Doyle, Bobby, and perhaps others make more appearances in the future.

Got me to check back into BlueSky just to sing its praises.
NOW FOR WHAT YOU ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR… 🥁🥁🥁

With the MLS schedule shifting to the Fall-Spring format, I pulled the avg daily temperatures for each MLS club in Dec. and Feb. ☀️🥶

Not all Nov/Dec/Feb matches will be able to be hosted in CA, FL, or TX.

Those clubs in the middle will need to host occasionally as well.

Winter is coming. Literally. 🥶⚽️

The MLS calendar flip trades mid-season summer sweat for pitch-side parkas at GEODIS Park.

How will the schedule flip affect Nashville SC?

The change will touch everything from matchday operations to non-soccer revenue. 🎸

The first big step of the #NashvilleSC offseason is the impending roster decision release.

I predicted who stays and who goes (although there will be plenty more movement this winter) as #EveryoneN begins its 2026 prep.

Also of note, Mukhtar tied his teammate, Teal Bunbury, for 35th all time in career MLS goals.

As long as Hany stays in MLS and remains healthy, he will almost assuredly finish in the Top 10 on the all-time goal scoring list.
With his game-winning, penalty-kick goal in the 90’+11’ against the Philadelphia Union, Nashville SC's Hany Mukhtar recorded his 75th career MLS goal, which are the most in the league since the start of the 2020 season and 12 more than the next-closest player (Chicho Arango, 63).

Instant reaction (late for Bsky, sorry!)

Nashville SC sweep the Philadelphia Union with a 1-0 win at home.

Finally recovered from last night.

Easily the best atmosphere since the Leagues Cup final.

This team and this coach are building something special. Truly elite mentality on display last night to snatch all 3 points with their backs against the wall in sweltering conditions.

Forget just spending big, Nashville SC is spending smart.

After turning over the roster, NSC is littered with tremendous value contracts. I've analyzed the MLSPA salary numbers to illustrate where performance is crushing the price tag.
