At this point more people have left to Beat The Traffic than not, which completely negates the idea of Beating The Traffic. Might as well watch the whole game, eh?

The Midwestern need or urge or whatever to Beat The Traffic will never cease to amaze me, especially in this economy. Y'all paid how much to attend this sporting event, why are you not getting every minute of your money's worth?

I can't wait to fill my closet with fifteen NWSL Columbus jerseys and buy season tickets and plan summer vacations to see them on the road. I can't freaking wait.

On April Fools' Discordecke/Server 96 became a fake AustinFC server & supporters group: "Good Boys&Girls of Verde" AustinFC brings shelter dogs to every match via @AustinPetsAlive 100+ adopted! We turned the prank into a charity drive. We're Crew fans & proved this community is about something more.

Columbus should have been the first, but they saved the best for last! #NWSLtoCBus is happening and we're so excited to cheer for our newest obsession! PS: Build the park, Jimmy!!

It makes me a little angry and more than a little sad that there aren't very many people in this space celebrating what should be a Massive Day for Columbus sports. Andy Ginther & HSG spoiled another million dollar opportunity. And HSG isn't even the majority owner of the NWSL franchise!

If I were a PR strategist, and obviously I'm not, the very first thing I'd do would be never let anyone named Haslam be mentioned in the same sentence as the team. Pete & Chris Edwards forever and always. Haslam is a toxic brand in Ohio. Truth hurts.

I hate how tainted NWSL to Columbus has become by the stench of Jimmy Haslam and civic politics. But I'm excited for it nonetheless and can't wait to be there on opening day.

I'm very excited to read the press release announcing the new Manager of Fan Culture & Development. Such a vital role should have as wide an introduction as possible.

There's a difference between making mistakes and not even attempting something that results in a mistake. I don't understand why they're so hesitant.

Chris LaMacchia @chrislamacchia.bsky.social · 31/08/2025

I haven't seen a Crew team this hesitant to shoot the ball since Bobby Warzycha got fired.

Chris LaMacchia @chrislamacchia.bsky.social · 31/08/2025

Ok so the game isn't worth talking about so lemme ask this question: Why didn't anyone from #Crew96 do any major advertising for the best watch party idea to land in their lap in the past 10 years? This place should be more full. So disappointing.

I've been ejected from the #Crew96 match because a security guard thinks they saw me wave an unapproved flag after being warned about waving an unapproved flag. The flag in question:

If I wear a Palestine National Team jersey into the stadium, will they give me a yellow t-shirt to put over it?

Curious what the uptick in expulsions will be this week and thankful that they've got almost a month until the next home game to tweak their policies.

I'm withholding judgement until I hear the Nordecke's version of the events.

"The league, however, will not sanction fans to bring Palestinian flags to the stadium, with the flag to be provided and installed by the club." Sigh.

Given that the Air Show starts day after tomorrow, it's not out of the question.

They may only allow one Palestine flag into #crew96 stadium, but allow me to humbly post this link for no reason in particular: www.subsidesports.com/us/kelme-pal...

The Palestinian Children's Relief Fund is a great charity, let's all chip in a bit to help the kids who are greatly in need in honor of our new Number 9! #Crew96

What will it take for HSG to go to the press about their new star player being held up by the US Government because of his ethnicity? Genuinely curious. #Crew96

They're all fine. They're meant to make the experience of being at the Horseshoe more engaging for the 2.5 hours during the game that football isn't being played. That's a good idea when the coat of admission is as high as it is.

So because the Crew is the away team tonight, this will be the largest ever NorOnTour, right? Right?!
