Proper Blue, that one Jedi. Can't turn away from watching the car crash. Hope we bring him home on a massive fee once Myko's crossing turns all Mackey Sasser.

As a lifelong Mets fan got a little PTSD reading his name there ?

Always liked him though—he was a good hitter from what I remember

He played AA in my town for a while so he's stuck with me, plus having the yips like he did was hard to forget.

*I'm just going to throw this out there, I love Myko but am just going to call him Myko Sasser from now on.

Think it was his first year he played a lot (maybe a Gary Carter injury?) and batted around .300. Remember him scorching the ball down the right field line

His yips were strange—he could make the throw to second or third no problem.
Goes to show how much of success in athletics is between the ears

Did Claudio Reyna and GB get along while they played together on USMNT? Seems like a weird thing for her to know.

Claudio and Gregg were high school teammates & their wives were 4-year teammates & roommates at UNC if I read the report correctly

?. Reynas seem the Jersey justice type. Sugar in the gas tank. Puncturing the tires of Gregg’s Dodge Stratus

"Yeah you're not gonna play my kid? Well what about when you were in college huh?"

Wow, I've lost all respect for the older Reyna's today.

I'm not a fan of berhalter, never was, and what he did was horrible.

But for Danielle Reyna to claim in that statement today she is Rosalind's friend, and exposing that altercation back in the day that they clearly resolved and moved past is so scummy. I feel terrible for her and their kids.

As funny as this all is on some level it's also a major issue for the team going forward. And USSF is too twisted in conflicts of interest for it to get solved properly I fear. Best case is they appoint a USMNT manager who is far enough removed from US Soccer beforehand that the federation's crap isn't going to interfere in 2026. I don't really see that happening.

Yep, now more than ever they need a manager whose has no deep connections to USSF but sadly they'll continue their insular ways
