Staff writer, @theathletic. Writing about American soccer and all of its wild, weird history. Can barely read or write yet "award winning," somehow.

Thought I might share a life story from a few months ago to brighten your day. Back in March, I spotted a raccoon on the side of the interstate that had very clearly been run over. I pulled over thinking I’d have to put it out of its misery. We ended up becoming good friends. It was around rush hour and a snow storm was setting in. He couldn’t move his back legs at all, but after one look at him I knew he might have a chance to survive.

Animal control wouldn’t do anything, but I managed to find someone 60 miles or so away of who might take him in. Image

Got my hands recently on a document MLS distributed to its clubs last month. In it, the league lays out expectations for what each of its club's needs to provide in terms of video content for this new Apple deal. I'll thread some details here. Within MLS Season Pass, each club will have their own vertical — in this doc, they're being called "club rooms." None of this content that's in these club rooms is exclusive to MLS Season Pass; a lot of it might get run on a club's social, or website, etc.

#FCCincy's introductory presser with Brenner and Lucho Acosta is set to begin at the top of the hour. Will sit in on it and thread any notable quotes right here. #DCU Brenner says he's thrilled at the arrival of Luciano Acosta - in particular because he's a player who has experience in MLS and who can help get him up to speed on things here.

Wondo is for the children. Wondo forever. Fantastic stuff there by LAFC’s Own Goal. Feels like just yesterday when the former DCU academy product debuted as DC’s leading scorer in 2013. He continues to thrive out west.

Did I ever tell my Barron Trump story? I'm going to tell my Barron Trump #DCU-related story. It's a good one. Last summer, the #USMNT played Cuba at Audi Field. I was covering the game. I left the press box briefly pre-game because I needed a quiet spot to have a private conversation with a colleague. We walked out of the press box and stepped into an empty suite right next door.
