    Zilker Park is technically Austin's biggest backyard right? Still, cool to see a local company on the building. And not one with an annoying name or logo.

    That was also this offseason. It's pretty shitty. Precourt's tweet says the signing knows their way around Austin. Would love if it was Khiry Shelton.

    Houston is making a lot of good moves this off-season. I hate it.

    Matt Doyle saying that Mayaka was the surest thing as a #1 overall in years and him not being the pick was the best part of the draft. Expect a domestic signing tomorrow. Wolff talked about it on the post draft press conference and Precourt tweeted green smoke. Wolff also talked about a couple more international signings, including one on the back line.

    December. And, who knows with the CBA also in the balance. We interviewed a college soccer expert for the podcast that came out today. Mayaka is very likely as the pick.

    This sign placement seems specifically located to shit on Discount Tire.

    Interviewed Alexi Lalas for the podcast tonight. Covered both Austin FC and great hair metal bands.

    It’s so beautiful. And ready for snowpocalypse.

    Rode from Hopsquad to downtown and back today. Took a couple pics from McKalla Place by the graphics joint. Haven’t been this way in a very long time.

    Picked up our 3rd GK today, Stuver from NYCFC and previously Columbus. So he should be very familiar with Claudio & Josh. Assume all these familiar names are intentional to jump start chemistry among an expansion team being built during a pandemic. His wife also asks the important questions on Twitter.

    Houston took him in the re-entry draft. Since we hadn’t signed a contract with him, they have his rights. I’m fine with losing him because I’m convinced he kinda sucks after watching a lot of video but it was a waste of an expansion draft pick.

    Pretty meh, but he’s a good influence in the locker room and he’s super affordable.
  13. That Firimino goal. So pretty and so casual.

    We talked about all the new players on this Capital City Soccer Show. Listen and then amaze your friends and neighbors with your inside knowledge of MLS. https://podfollow.com/capcitysoccer
  15. There were plenty of people talking about it. Shame on everyone outside the media other than Austin Sanders that passed on the information spoon fed to them.

    Other than Corona that was a boring ass expansion draft list.

    Several of us made our own expansion draft picks. https://www.losverdesatx.org/blog/expansion-draft-picks-from-los-verdes

    Free agents are eligible for the expansion draft. From the rules: Option Decline Free Agents and Out of Contract Free Agents not automatically protected and are eligible for selection.

    They could pick Trapp and force Minnesota to make a deal.

    Lima and Gallagher are very solid. Segura should be a flexible option as a utility man. Excellent business on the day to pick up five players. Phil West just wrote a good summary piece for the club website. https://www.austinfc.com/post/2020/12/13/austin-fc-signs-new-players-through-trade-window We will be breaking down all 10 players the club acquires this week on the Capital City Soccer Show on Thursday.

    Well dammit, now Aguilar and Layun have both been shot down. But, the club will be streaming the expansion draft on Monday at 5 p.m. https://www.austinfc.com/post/2020/12/09/austin-fc-select-five-players-during-2020-mls-expansion-draft Also, there should be a group of folks meeting up at Hopsquad for a watch party/Food Bank food drive on Saturday for the MLS Final.

    One week from today, we should be able to field most of a team. Expansion draft on 12/15. Assuming we'll also pick up Cascante from Portland during the half-day trade window on the 13th and this Aguilar stuff seems to have a lot of legs.
