Re: World Soccer XXVIII: Campeones de NorteAmérica.
US Soccer has a new President in Carlos Cordeiro. He was the Vice President previously. Here’s a rundown on what’s going on now:
1. The Twitter bots and Reddit bots are going full meltdown about an “establishment candidate” winning. According to them US Soccer is fully doomed and nothing will change. Also something about MLS/SUM cartel conspiracy.
2. In contrast to above, US Soccer announced they have begun the process to hire General Managers for both the Men’s and Women’s systems to run the soccer side of things.
3. There’s a bit of kerfluffle involving the Athletes Council voting and attendance. A few reporters mentioned on Twitter that Heather O’Reilly flew from London to attend and vote despite having a game tomorrow while Brad Guzan and Jonathan Spector didn’t attend “while only being in MLS Preseason” and a few “isn’t that odd *wink*” comments. Clapping back, Stu Holden said the “Athletes Council decided to vote as a bloc and had a meeting prior to the voting with all involved.”
4. Hope Solo is still crazy.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Re: World Soccer XXVIII: Campeones de NorteAmérica.
Oh, forgot this:
5. The Players, via the Athletes Council voting as a bloc, decided this election not, as the anti-MLS folks around Twitter think, the “soccer establishment.” They have, by law, 20% of the vote and, given the wide open election, were able to effectively leverage that. It’ll be interesting to see their thought process and discussions about who to support and why.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Given that he reportedly decided to run before Sunil had stepped down (which may have prompted Sunil to recruit Carter to run), he's about as un-establishment as an establishment candidate gets.Originally posted by Jimjamesak View PostNortheastern Huskies Class of 1998 / BS Chemical Engineering

Re: World Soccer XXVIII: Campeones de NorteAmérica.
People are saying "he was Sunil's VP!" not realizing that the VP is a board position that is separately elected (in fact they have to have an election next year to replace him). As angry as people on the outside are, those who are actually running things seemed to have some common sense.Originally posted by Craig P. View PostU-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!
