Looks like mgarbowski is rubbing shoulders with decision makers and appearing in online articles. Soon the forums might have to pay him to post on here.

Funny thing is that article, though dated yesterday, is basically a republish of one they did months ago: either the same day or day after my tweet November 3. Either way it's my first MLS photo credit.

Someone needs to smack Miley Lopez for being an idiot. And the writer of this article. What an unnecessary jab.

Added Lopez: “He’s not that good at anything else, I think. I don’t think he has any other talents except for soccer.”

Vieira is going to suspend him for the next game he could play. Just like he did with Khiry (and Mikey) for social media posting shitting on the opponent we were going to play next.

Unless it's some innocuous inside joke everyone in the clubhouse is aware of and Villa finds funny.

I think so given the preceding comment by Shelton about how bad Villa is at ping pong.

If there's anything I've learned about Villa in the last 3-4 years it's that whatever Mikey said is his kind of humor. The things he posts on some of his friends' social media accounts is always deprecating.

"Mikey, the only thing worse than your jokes is your talent in the midfield. :joycat::joycat::joycat:" - David Villa, allegedly...

Hey, give it up for Mikey's cousins.

Btw, y'alls sister has an article on the MLS for women site, which seems to be a place where vegan and/or tattoo militants hang out, where she uses an entire paragraph to discuss how much she loves to watch and misses watching that little cuss [descritpion mine] play.

You know what? They need to bring back are the Mikey Juice Box interviews. What happened to those? Hell, as long as he's hurt, maybe he should broadcast games, too. And not just NYCFC. He should do US team, and maybe some PL games. I'd love to hear him analyze the next Reds game.

Please. Sounds like a great way for him to keep busy.

What happened to the Ian Joy and RJ weekly YouTube conversations? That was shut down...by who? We may never, cough, know.

We're a media blackout club. Remember when Alexi Lalas was complaining all last year because we would not grant an interview with him and Jack Harrison. He probably cursed us for that as we haven't won on FS1 for the long streak.

NY Post continues good coverage with an article about Ben Sweat and a nice game summary.

Good stuff. But for some reason, it really bothers me in the Sweat article how they use the word "nevertheless" in consecutive sentences....

"Nevertheless, they will be without one of their key midfielders, Yamil Asad, who is suspended for the match.

Nevertheless, Vieira warned NYCFC must keep things tight early."

Early season awards from Matt Doyle. Nice respect for Ring, who he names D Mid of the Year (so far).

I would really like to know who, specifically, scouted Ring and convinced Ring to move here. In a Salary Cap league, there is an argument to be made that he is not only NYCFC's MVP, but the most VALUABLE player in MLS.

I cannot figure why our odds would get so considerably higher since December.

That is weird and why are Jersey still 10/1? They've been pretty bad.

Talk about the stock dropping for RSL!! Glad I didn't buy any of that.

Same with LAG.
