Edwin was with Maryland Bobcats before Tormenta snatched him up. Big things were always in his future.
Because one of the rules of journalism is to localize a story for your audience, FC Dallas is where former Tormenta PR Legend Edwin Pintor works now as the Senior Manager, Media Relations.

If you enjoy #Stormwatch912 at all, Edwin deserves a lot credit as he encouraged me to start it.
BREAKING: Mark Briggs, head coach of the Birmingham Legion, is departing the club, sources tell me and @joeclowery.bsky.social.

Briggs is expected to join the staff at FC Dallas, where he’ll serve under former New Mexico United manager Eric Quill.

Mississippi’s largest synagogue was set on fire before dawn Saturday. Fire department ruled it arson, and a suspect has been arrested.
It is the same synagogue that the Ku Klux Klan bombed in 1967 because the rabbi supported civil rights. mississippitoday.org/2026/01/10/f...

“Someone I personally know in Minneapolis posted this to Facebook a few hours ago. This isn’t what orderly law enforcement looks like. No charge, no location info? How do you even know citizens are getting due process here?”

Like this legend, Jagata-kun, but with some kind of traditional Boise headgear?

Team Boise must hire a Japanese mascot designer to design a potato mascot for their new USL League One team.

Random fact for my peeps: I think the soccer experience that Scotty Matches said he wanted to do the faux-Cosmos match thing on the Macclesfield pitch.

1909 - Macclesfield are the first non-league team to eliminate the FA Cup holders since Crystal Palace knocked out Wolves in the 1908-09 first round. Fairytale.

I just realized watching the replays that Macclesfield's second goal was in front of the Palace travelling supporters.

That was a slow, odd burn of a goal so there must be photos of the anguish on the Palace fans' faces.

80' Macclesfield making a few late subs.

Palace continuing to struggle making things happen. Silkmen with an immediate corner.

65' Macclesfield mid-table in the non-league National North is up by 2 goals over FA Cup holders Crystal Palace

Lovely scenes at Macclesfield

OMG! Macclesfield go up 2-0 over Palace

Last night, the CBA between @thewnbpa and the WNBA expired. We stand with the players.

Without the players, there is no @wnba.

Pay equity is not optional.
It is earned.
It is deserved.
It is overdue.

Nice to see this continuity especially in the back. Malou has a season already under his belt. Great veteran presence.
From loaned in to locked in. Welcome back, Justin Malou! 🤝

When I get asked why North American women, Black women, women of color aren’t coaching in the NWSL, I’m just going to send them this quote.

The good ol’ boys network in soccer is alive & well in 🇺🇸. That Chris Long is calling Jesse Marsch “looking for a coach” is a symptom of a systemic problem.
"Jesse Marsch gave me a call and said 'hey, a friend of mine that I went to college with [Chris Long] is looking for a coach. He asked me for someone and I had one name: yours." -Armas (? from Taylor Kauffman @kmbc9.bsky.social)
