I’m writing this at halftime of the College Football “Championship” instead of watching Imagine Dragons, every college football fan’s favorite musical act.

Imagine Dragons is basically Nickelback but in 2018/19. Remember that Beats by Dre commercial where LeBron was in a gym by himself practicing turnaround jumpers, wearing Beats headphones and listening to Imagine Dragons? Boy, that was sure believable.

I’m too distracted by this surprisingly bad football game to write anything else particularly witty, so how about some United Soccer Links?

• Louisville City has hired former part-time goalkeeper coach Scott Budnick to take over the full-time gig. Good for Scott!
• I was irrationally hopeful about the 2020 USL Chicago expansion team, and now those hopes are slated to be dashed by city government later today.
• Birmingham Legion signed Femi for 2019, a center forward our friend Phil Durbin had been keeping an eye on.
