The USL and the Restless, Part III

Just a quick update on the big USL vs TOA grudge match that none of us bought a ticket for, but are being forced to watch anyway.

Some stuff was said, and then unsaid, bluffs are being made, and called, and everybody's kind of confused, and now they're circling the lawyers, and the league meeting is this week. . .

But there's really only one thing I care about, and that's that there will still be a pro soccer team in Austin next year, and every year after that. When it comes right down to it, I don't really care whether they play teams from Miami, Montreal or Buttscratch, Kentucky.

So you know what? I'm done. To hell with the whole stupid tempest, and the teapot it rode in on, too. If you don't want to miss any drama, more power to you. I recommend the fine coverage at Inside Minnesota Soccer and The Kartik Report. But I'm not going to waste any more of my hard-earned pixels repeating, summarizing, speculating, editorializing or otherwise reporting on it here.

Just tell me how it was, once it's all over. And give me the pre-season schedule when it comes out.

I'd love to follow things on IMS and Kartik. The only problem is, their contacts are all on the TOA side of the issue, and I'd like to hear something more from the other side. Right now it feels like the USL is being media-drubbed by the TOA.

I also wish I could ignore it all. But I worry to much.

*sigh*

We should have solid answers in the next three weeks.

And all I can really do is shake my head at the stupidity of it all.
 
Here here to you and your fine words Two. ;)
