Yeah long story short, I love soccer but didn’t get into it until later in life. I grew up in a culture where “soccer sucked” and as a result I have an ingrained sense that the MLS sucks and the Philadelphia Union (my hometown team) suck. Even tho I now know, logically, that these things aren’t true, I can’t help but still think them. I’m working on getting past the MLS part but I simply can’t shake the distaste of the Union lol like I’m happy to see them do well but I simply can’t call them “my team”.

So I need a team.

I lived in SLC for a bit and absolute fell in love with the city and state and hope to someday come back.

I figured if I’m going to take the leap and commit to watching a full MLS season, I’ll stick with a team in a city I hope to move to again someday and have a realistic chance to catch games live.

So, can I get a “Real Salt Lake” for dummies? The Who’s who and what’s what? I know literally nothing about the team past the name and that I drove past the stadium frequently. I also don’t follow MLS at all so past Messi and Cavan Sullivan I know nothing lol

For my soccer background, I’m a big fan of the USL as well as a couple foreign leagues (Scotland and Ireland) but don’t generally pay attention to higher level soccer (ex MLS, EPL, Bundesliga). MLS would be the first higher level league I pay attention to. I can probably name all do the teams but I don’t know the history or anything lol

I know I’m asking a lot at a random time in the year but I appreciate any info!

Mattey writes about the heartbreaking result Wednesday in Sandy

That’s what this team is. A mis-kick from one of your best players leading to a goal after possibly your best player and certainly your best defender goes off with cramps after scoring the go-ahead goal is basically a microcosm of this whole season. At this point, I’m just here for the sprint season. The playoff break might be a nice chance to recover.

I'm not able to make it. I have 2 isle seats in section 29. Free if you want them.

Where’s everyone watching the game from tonight?

I’ll be tuning in from Tennessee

Anybody that’s not going and that are willing to give away there tickets I would gladly put them to good use.

Last season we were able to take our two teams to the Meet the Team night & it was the funniest time ever for them. They still talk about it & loved it. They were so hyped that RSL put them on their Instagram too. We're trying to take them again so if anyone isn't going to be going we can give them a good home for sure. Thank you for helping make some memories for some young footy fans.

(I didn't see a ticket thread so created this post)

We made it to the top 10, lads!

Messi picked Gozo as one of his top 10 to watch out for!
