I have been working on a new USA Soccer dashboard hub for a couple of months now in Tableau. It's *finally* ready for public consumption. The images here don't show the half of it, much less the level of interactivity in each part: public.tableau.com/views/MLSAdvan…

Not only could Sergiño Dest do this he’d put it on his instagram story from 7 different angles and a bunch of AfterEffects added on

I’m open to pro/rel, but frankly a team outspending its closest competitor by a factor of 3 makes the competition a bit pointless no?

Wrexham gets promoted to League One, they continue to move us the ranks in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. What a beautiful story. If only we had this in US 🇺🇸 Soccer… x.com/yetigoosecreat…

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like this in sports - both a team and fan base completely self immolating in response to being totally embarrassed.

The USA is not morally superior to every country. Or even most countries! But being morally superior to Iran is a low bar to clear

How can soccer possibly compete with a sport where you have 120 seconds of dead time between 15 seconds of brain damage stretched over 3 hours

Ross Tucker: "I love that the game is growing internationally. I mean, Scott, think of the kids. There are kids out there that think soccer is the best sport. We gotta grow this thing internationally so they know."

In Anthony Hudson's tenure, the USA qualified for the 2026 World Cup and secured the commitment of Folarin Balogun. What a run. All timer.

It is shockingly on brand that the Transfermarkt dude doesn’t understand the actual components of value and what makes things worth what they cost

Revisionist historians will try to tell you Freddy Adu wasn’t good and that an entire nation got it wrong. No, he was special.

This kind of play would seem too Hollywood if you saw it on Ted Lasso

Yes, Parks would struggle to learn how to play in a midfield with *checks notes* James Sands

- Keaton Parks: Didn’t hear his name but same issue as Tillman, not familiar with system. It’s 3 games in 7 days to the potential final, knowing the system + being healthy & able to play 90/120+ minutes without issues were the deciding major factors.

Any time anyone criticizes MLS I’m just going to bring up Taty casually dropping a brace on Real Madrid. Also let’s get that money NYCFC 💵💵💵
