As a former A’s fan, it’s very strange being emotionally invested in the Mariners all of a sudden.

you know, one maybe underrated possibility is that in October weather Safeco/T-Mobile switches from being a pitcher’s park to being an insane pitcher’s park and we just didn’t notice because there weren’t any playoff games in Seattle for 25 years

When Donald Trump keeps complaining that Portland is rebuilding itself out of "plywood," I think he might be referring to this? If so, horrors!

I enjoy how this account that exists to promote the USMNT makes their lineup graphics totally useless.

correct

Jeremiah Oshan @jeremiah.sounderatheart.com · 17h

two defensive midfielders, yeah

Jeremiah Oshan @jeremiah.sounderatheart.com · 17h

My understanding is yes.

Jeremiah Oshan @jeremiah.sounderatheart.com · 17h

Games like this one are pretty hard to avoid since it’s rescheduled from the Leagues Cup final.

"Republicans blocked paying the troops during the shutdown but found $20 billion to bail out Argentina's bad crypto investments" should be the sort of thing that leads every local newscast, but...

Aaron Fritschner @fritschner.bsky.social · 23h

A few minutes ago in the House:

- Speaker Mike Johnson officially cancels votes next week, extending the House recess through a fourth week

- House Republicans block Democrats from passing a bill to pay the troops during the shutdown, ensuring they will miss paychecks next week

House Press Gallery: During today's pro forma session, the Clerk read a message from the Speaker designating Tuesday, October 14 through Sunday, October 19 as a district work period.

Punchbowl's Briana Reilly: House gaveled in and out of its pro forma just now w/o recognizing Rep Elfreth, who was seeking to UC a mil pay bill from Rep Sykes.

Elfreth told reporters after that House Dems stand “ready and willing to take” up standalone legislation to pay troops.

So, like, the World Cup? Or more like Liga MX vs. MLS all-stars?

Pedro de la Vega got through training just fine but it sounds like he’ll be dealing with some pain for rest of season. Good news is that ‘it’s not getting worse’ according to Schmetzer.

Jeremiah Oshan @jeremiah.sounderatheart.com · 18h

Schmetzer didn’t say who would be called in but he confirmed Sounders can sign three Defiance players on short-term loans. Peter Kingston, Sebastian Gomez and one of Tino Lopez or Leo Burney will be those players.

@MrAndyNgo
Now that the local and national press have started to cover the Portland ICE area round-the-clock in reaction to the President, Antifa have devised a plan where they are encouraging one another to come in animal costumes.

The costumes serve the function of masking the violent extremism to make the direct action appear like a family-friendly gathering on camera, and to whitewash the past ultraviolence.

In 2019, Antifa devised a similar plot by giving out free "milkshakes" at a protest. But they couldn't contain their bloodthirst and nearly killed me when they saw me. In 2020, they mobilized a fake "Wall of Moms" where female Antifa supporters and members wore yellow shirts to act as human body shields while violent rioters behind them hurled projectile weapons.

Nobody else in American soccer media has Jeff’s range: writing and podcasting, local beat and national punditry, clubs and USMNT, reporting and analysis, data and takes, box throw propaganda and a mean Blue Monday karaoke at Ego’s. We’re lucky to have him around the game

Some personal news: today is my final day at The Athletic, ending a 6+ year tenure on its staff.

Immensely fortunate to have covered this sport alongside some of the finest writers and editors in the industry. Will keep you posted as I figure out what’s next for my work!
