I don’t have much to ramble about right now. Unfortunately for me, the most exciting time of the USL season also coincides with one of the busiest periods of my work year. I’d much rather be unconscionably busy during the offseason. January and February? GIVE ME SOMETHING TO DO. November and December are some of my favorite months of the year thanks to holidays, but the amount of events I willingly attend plus the mountain of stuff I have to try to process on and off my desk make it so it’s difficult to pay attention to much else. BUT I SOLDIER ON FOR YOU, DEAR READER.

LINKS!

  • Austin Bold FC, in addition to setting the bar for the worst name and badge in the league and maybe the world, had a stadium groundbreaking ceremony yesterday.
  • Memphis 901 FC, who you just remembered was a thing, announced their first three player signings.
  • NYRBII’s John Wolyniec won USL Coach of the Month because he…coached the Baby Bulls to three straight wins. I guess that’s a good reason? Maybe? These USL awards are getting pretty dumb.
  • FiveThirtyEight.com updated their odds on who’ll win the USL Cup.
