Dude.. if you ever get the chance to make it to an Orlando game, you'll be amazed at the atmosphere. It's easily one of the most exciting and "all-in" sporting venues I've ever been to in my life, topping any football game I've ever seen in person. It's totally exciting for the entire 2 hours, and the place is nuts for hours before and after the game, and a TON of fun to go to.

 

Glad to see the quality of MLS is starting to catch up to the excitement of it.

It was... Kreis is running the team into the ground and the average fans are starting to elect to spend money elsewhere. Now the supporter section is the best in Major League Soccer in my opinion (biased as an OCSC fan) but outside of the supporter section the stadium has been quite empty in recent weeks. Now we got a fantastic win against the Timbers yesterday but there were A LOT of empty seats.

I think the OCSF fans are some of the best in the MLS but just like any other scenario, if the team isn't winning, the average fan isn't coming.

Kreis is basically the new Preki...an all-star MLS player who had initial success as a coach in lucky circumstances and thus will get six more coaching gigs in the league and stink the joint up each time. (Complete assh*le in real life as well.)

The league has gotten significantly better even just over the last few years.

And if you look at the progress since the beginning, Jesus Christ. I remember watching guys like Darren Sawatzky play back in '96...there were a lot of guys who genuinely seemed like they had not seen a soccer ball before. I remember watching one game where a guy on the MetroStars took a corner and put it over the opposing sideline - twice. There were a lot of players back then that seriously would not cut it at a D-I program today. The growth has been a beautiful thing.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
