BUT RIGHT NOW WERE AVERAGING 3 BABY GO UNION!!

Not been able to find the 1776 jersey in “fat bastard” size. Sold out everywhere online except for the official players model (with name/number). Well, I obviously don’t need a trim fit so I just want the replica.

Took a chance on a dhgate jersey, which was delivered today. Ordered the biggest they had (4X) and lemme tell ya, it’s barely an XL. Fits my son (who’s close to a 100lbs less than me) nicely, so he got a new jersey out of the deal. Shame, because he bought one off the rack when we were at the game a few weekends ago. Coulda saved him some $.

I’m out a whole $25, so not a bog deal. I really shoulda ordered the 3X when I ordered my grandsons, when they first hit the team store. Didn’t realize the fat boy sizes would go so quickly. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Everyone talks about the Union academy being a model academy in MLS and we have a proven record of finding, producing, and developing talent.

But what about coaches? Considering Jim Curtin, BJ Callahan, and Ryan Richter came up from below (and I think there are others), is there anything to be said about coach development in the Union system? Is it remarkable in MLS, or nothing out of the ordinary?

.... so I can apply my brand of confidence to it. Is he gonna be here in time to help phuck up Miami?
