PSP makes the case for why 5 refs are better than 3 (and goal-line technology). Yes, we’re using common sense again, in a way that no one else seems to be, because unlike Europe, we actually have other successful team sports to draw upon for examples. Also, a few quick hits on the Union.
PPL Park expansion talk is back in the news. Conor O’Grady hopes talk of more suites, club seats, and a restaurant takes means the Union doesn’t forget the populism that was behind the founding of the club.
More reaction to Saturday’s loss. Power rankings. Mac does the weather. SoB pres moving to Texas. MLS refs vote to unionize. More on NYC expansion. US Open Cup field set. More news.
The Union may have struggled in New England but Jimmy McLaughlin opened the scoring in Harrisburg’s 100th win in franchise history.

The Union’s midfield deficiencies finally caught up to them in their 2-0 loss to New England Revolution.
Hackworth describes Saturday’s performance in loss to NE as the Union’s worst of the year. Jimmy McLaughlin scores in Harrisburg’s home opener win. NYT reports Abu Dhabi royal nearing purchase of 20th MLS team. Garber says “way too much” soccer on TV. More.
The Union lost to the Revolution for the first time ever with a disappointing 2-0 result in New England.
