This was really well done, Jon.

The kids play hard and have some fight. I’ll take it, but show me more! Goal was great; time with Banner in the adjacent seat was maybe better. Plenty of boos and FUs for DSC from the WWall. I sense a pending 2H Jesse tantrum. #USMNT

The white flags in the Allianz seats is a *choice.* Gio’s injury bug returns, Jesse does funny stuff, and there are 5 total goals. We like mayhem here.

Earlier this week, I agreed to interviews with two USA Today journalists. They wrote fantastic articles about the Cornell case that I'm proud to have been a part of. What I did not know is that their employer considers interviews to proprietary and opens up recordings to be used by any journalist.

#MNUFC has an elite passer, no dribblers, and a few scorers.

Would you like to read an absolutely fucking insane story today? Read this one about what it’s like to work at The Spokesman-Review under Rob Curley.

Expected Loons trend: Their Pcts have remained steady in this stretch of 💩, but their opponents have found areas to *really* excel. FSeattle was no different. #MNUFC (h/t @xgpostfacto.bsky.social)

Malone’s no-goal is a perfect encapsulation of 2026 for #MNUFC. Aside from the HT swap for Bongi, late-sub Cam went even later tonight (78th and 84th). Loons now 4 points from 9th, 8 points ahead of Wooden Spoon.

David Mayberry @dmayberry.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
One of the worst 1H of the season for #MNUFC. Maybe harsh but…Listless attack to go with gap-filled defending with the season on the line. No energy. No plan aside from what hasn’t worked. Morris made a rare run; scores beauty. Dotson crashes the mod-far post; scores on garbage clearance.

Getting the strong sense the Apple TV pbp team is not at Lumen Field. Sounds like a closet broadcast. Maybe they’re at Husky for MN-UW? #MNUFC

FSeattle has a bigger shovel - ownership, FO, staff, roster. They’ll jump out of their mess fast. Loons might as well be digging with a teaspoon. Maybe they catch the MLS odd result on an international break, but even with the continuing 2026 wish casting, #MNUFC are what they are. FSea 2-0.

You own a grocery store and 95% of your traffic fills up on free samples and proudly announces that they will never buy anything. You can’t afford to give away food, so you stop. People complain, claiming food is essential and your greed starves people. This post is about online journalism.

Long-ago CST friend Scott does an excellent job with this. Great format / template for a hyperlocal / niche sports newsletter that allows for flexibility and (for readers) a lot of fun.

2 charts from LAG v #MNUFC, both from @xgpostfacto.bsky.social (Thank you!). * Gamestate: Wild, frustrating ride. * Pcts: Loons were largely what they’ve been in 2026. LAG had off-chart finishing and luck.

David Mayberry @dmayberry.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
Loons need *at least* 11 points from their final 8 games to *maybe* make the postseason. #MNUFC has 12 points in their last 16 league games.

Discipline at the back just crashes after the 60th minute. Again. Late subs. Again. (See below) Attack was so predictable and slow in 2H. Roster, staff not built for the lift needed to get into the postseason. #MNUFC bsky.app/profile/dmay...

And again, in-game player stats are amazing, @futi.live #MNUFC

David Mayberry @dmayberry.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
Look at that. Loons attack more on the dribble and set up both goals. More, please. Comical 1H on the left side by Chucky and Harvey. 🍿 #MNUFC

Cam sees what Trapp was up to 2024. He’s not that player anymore.

Take-on success dribbling rate from @futi.live: 6 LAG 60.6 29 #MNUFC 50.3 (only SJ is worse)
011
David Mayberry @dmayberry.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
Loons’ S11 is an attacking group, which should find success vs a suspect LAG defense. #MNUFC *loves* to pass. Dribbling? Not so much. Find that tonight and pour in the goals. Preview card from @soccerdatavizer.com: bsky.app/profile/socc...

David Mayberry @dmayberry.bsky.social · 19/09/2026
LAG is worse at defending and has lost leading attacking pieces. Feels like a rainy opportunity for another flood of #MNUFC goals. WW cuts through the raindrops, 3-1.

Looking at this again, and these in the purple circle are 100% head-scratchers. Game state may play a role but... Indecision? No plan? No confidence in depth? #MNUFC

The Loons' sub pattern is definitely later than most - lagging behind the league average in every substitution slot. www.soccerdatavizer.com/club-data?ch...

He was in the MNUFC defensive 1/2 and 1/3 for much of the game and very few meaningful touches at the other end. Given his position... and prior touch history... and vs. other players in the same role... that StL game is just gonna be a turd for him.

That was about the time we moved out of Wyo, so I'm not sure. But that sounds correct.

David Mayberry @dmayberry.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Another “unlucky” result, I guess. Sure 1 post & 1 crossbar, but the talent and coaching gap was huge tonight. Loons’ spine: old, slow, and/or not good enough. Sideline: no emotion, no answers. Malone has heavy feet, and the late flop was gross. (btw: He’s is here through 2030. Wheee!) #MNUFC

Pereyra-Chanca is fun, just not often enough. Poopy parry by DSC II. Poopy cement feet by DSC II. No space, time to pass cleanly. Maybe try a dribble? 13 GA in 3.5 games. Positive body language by #MNUFC that Kendra noted early was gone by the 25th minute.

David Mayberry @dmayberry.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Regardless how the 2026 campaign finishes, #MNUFC has to retire or buyout (plenty of available GAM!) the “convergence” kit before the 2027 sprint. 🗑️
030
David Mayberry @dmayberry.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Loons lean defensive with the S11, and also swap some CBs. Make the most of it, Harvey and Romero. Yeboah has struggled as the lone attacker 👀 but the move gives a spot to Chancalay. Gene can’t jog tonight; StL will punish lapses. #MNUFC
