Not excited about another chickfila going into this spot on Ponce. Not a great use of real estate.

If someone is qualified to be the interim School Superintendent for the next 12 months, then they should have a real shot at earning the job and not just be replaced by some shiny object from another city a year from now.

Is there a downside for allowing more flexibility for contract buyouts (more than one per season and not tied to a short period of time)?
One way the roster rules inhibit the quality of MLS is how difficult it is to move on from underperforming players.
Last night, there were 4 or 5 players Atlanta fielded who have not been very good for a long time (or ever)..
If you’re an MLS club (or ANY soccer club) with underperforming players, you can try to..
1. Sell the underperforming player. Happens everywhere else in the world, but in MLS clubs are capped on roster sizes, so the odds of finding another club within the league to take your underperforming player on a bad contract is slim to none.. selling a player at a loss internationally means you potentially lose GAM
2. Loan the player out to make room for someone else. Sounds good, until you realize you’re still going to be responsible for a cap charge when the loan is finished, and then you end up with too many players and no leverage. Atlanta did this and ended up having to loan out the only u22 player they had that was a regular starter to a team in their own conference
3. The most obvious - SIGN BETTER PLAYERS.. Except in MLS, it’s so difficult to get out of bad deals and roster sizes are so small that you’re locked into a player unless you can get creative to move him. If you have bad players, it can take a while to overturn the roster unless you’re super savvy.
All in all, it allows mediocre players to stay in starting line ups and hurts competition and quality within teams

At this point, I just hope Josef scores in the 2nd half and has “Boca Out” written on his chest or something

Seeing Tata smiling on the sidelines and Josef having fun on the field brings back a lot of good memories

Getting paid $200M a year, but playing in a stadium with only 13K people watching is pretty surreal

Anxiety is probably helpful for individuals in optimizing to get to the 90th+ percentile of achievement, but it won't help you get the lottery ticket required to reach the 99.9% percentile.
Scarcity mindset and over-indexing on status signals is a root cause of anxiety, but a predisposition towards anxiety may also be causal in the pursuit of those two as a life goal. Give up on your kid getting into Harvard & try to find meaning in other non-lottery ticket outcomes
