I don't know the numbers on NE, but if they had as many of these types of errors, with their 1-goal win thing that went on for a bit those changes could have made them drop easily 9-10 points. Imagine that. PRO just sucks.

shame the league can't take criticism. of course, according to the Don himself, the refs "aren't that bad". So, it's unlikely anything is going to change.
Every US sports league has a rule that you get fined if you criticize the referees. Neville knew the rule and knew he'd be a little lighter in the pocket. It's the cost of doing business for a coach to go after the refs.
For what it's worth,

3 wins at home = 9 points = 49 points = historically, getting into 6th or 7th place (highest ever 7th place finishes have been, multiple times, 46 points.) If we can do that, we're in the playoffs, surely. (Though that does imply "in the playoffs, though not really with any chance past that")
I would like to see Heber start a game and get taken off at the half or something. And I still want to see that Heber-Taty combo. We had it in the game yesterday, and I thought it was very good, for the lack of chances we created. Give them more time together again and it'll lead to goals.

Teams are officially getting eliminated. That means season recaps are on their way! Everybody loves those GIFs. In the meantime, let’s take a look at what happened in Week 30. We move:

And here the league is celebrating that a professional wrestler thinks this is comparable to WWE and no red card was given.
Interesting social media decision
Orlando slipped up against NE. They're on 47 and we're on 44. Orlando plays columbus, nashville, and montreal. We are tied on number of games won, so if we win and they slip up, we'll be ahead of them on that tie breaker.
Obviously best case here is Orlando chokes vs columbus and montreal and tied with Nashville. I think it's almost impossible we finish above Nashville, and it's even more unlikely we can finish above BOTH orlando and nashville. So just gotta hope nashville either ties or beats orlando

It’s hilarious how NE basically punted the game against Orlando and still got a draw.
Without that draw NYCFC is 5 points back of fourth with 3 games to go (now 3 points back). The Revs might have just given NYCFC any small chance at fourth place.

Really feel for the keeper here. Choosing the wrong way usually doesn’t look good and here in this moment it’s the reason why a goal was let up
I agree, it's odd, but let's remember the following.
1 - Pro wrestling is fake
2 - So, that move is stagecrafted to look dangerous and harmful and doesn't actually hurt anyone
3 - The ref said Melia was not given a red because the conduct wasn't violent enough
The record in MLS for most points in a season is 72 points. In a 34 game season, that's quite low. Winners are usually high 70's and higher. Is that a statement on MLS Parity through the years and only now teams are starting to break past that? Or is it a statement that the bottom of the east absolutely sucks this year and so NE gets a shit-ton of free points? Or is it that the top of the West sucks and thus they drop to terrible teams like Austin and Houston? Or is it neither and just overall Parity is decreasinig?
And I'd be curious to see if Parity decrease is a function of wage cap increase, since higher wage cap = bringing in better players

I like our new home jersey but the giant collar is keeping me away.

Nice to see Ring on the list!
Imagine being so crap that you go up 2-0 against columbus, get a penalty to potentially take you 3-0 and you try to unsuccessfully panenka the keeper... then end up at 3-1 up, only to end the game at 3-6 with 5 unanswered. That's Cincinnati. Even had they scored the panenka, they'd still have lost by two goals.
On that note,
We are now two games away from our best ever defensive performance. We would need to give up a ridiculous number of goals to NOT get our record. I wouldn't be surprised if we end the season with 35 or 36 against, which is excellent stuff.

Good stuff.
We are also only 3 off our best ever goal differential. We are +18 and were +21 in 2019.
We could easily end up at or above our goal differential from 2019 and also be 11 or more points below the 64 we got that year. Chunky goals.
Also interesting to note that New England set the points record last night at 73. They have a goal differential of +25.
When LAFC set the old record at 72, they had a goal differential of +48.
