The ramifications of extending the D1 men’s college soccer season

For the most part to this point, we have seen the conversation about the extension of the D1 NCAA men’s college soccer season to be self-congratulatory and focus on the biggest programs and the highest level players that play college soccer. I agree with much of this analysis, but there is a lot to pick at that could go wrong as a result of this.

In defense of the (Gainbridge) USL Super League

Why is NWSL in the position it is today? Because they were given a long runway by US Soccer in addition to being effectively subsidized. USL Super League hasn’t had those luxuries.

How to Watch Soccer like a Genius with Author Nick Greene

We sit down with Nick Greene, the author of the fantastic new book on the sport, How to Watch Soccer Like a Genius [https://www.abramsbooks.com/product/how-to-watch-soccer-like-a-genius_9781419777172/]. The book is an offbeat, eccentric look at the history of the sport and is truly one of the best reads I have had on football. Written from an American perspective but without the “dumbing down” you usually get with explanatory narratives (especially on FOX and CBS), Greene goes far and wide to explain the history of the sport, its tactical and rules evolutions, its global appeal and why it caught on later in the US.
