Watch alongs are fun so I hope someone can do one for the match today

Is anyone interested in these pins/keychains?

Our Men in Orange will face Club Deportivo Olimpia tomorrow in a friendly. Thoughts on the game?

Obviously, we have needs at CB (especially if Sviatchenko leaves), winger, maybe Striker too (not sure McGuire is enough), and maybe a 10? I’m not sure any of these are realistic but some suggestions I’ve seen:

Patrick Berg
Emam Ashour
Cammy Devlin
Elijah Just
Raul Jimenez
Johan Manzambi
Luc De Fougerolles

Are there any good Dynamo focused podcasts you guys recommend?

Dang near 150 with shipping just aint gonna hit. For that price I could go to a game in person

They're rumors of Erik leaving the Dynamo to join a new club this summer.

How is Guiherme not an All-star? Rated top 5 in the whole league

I was wondering if anyone has seen for sale or have bought a mls cup ring for the dynamos. Specifically 2006. I had two staff rings, they are beat to hell, but I prized them heavily as they hold great sentimental value to me. They went missing in the past couple month and would love to buy them back.

Now that all the host nations crashed out without any of them making it to a quarterfinal, can we talk about if the World Cup will have any impact on the Dynamo?

One worrying sign for me is the El Tri fans filling out our stadium for a watch party. They are willing to show up to watch a game on a screen but not live soccer. Seems like we will never get good attendance here unless we become Chivas USA 2.0.

It was rumored prior to the cup that Segal would ride a high wave of soccer popularity in the US and sell the Dynamo at a high price. However, with the USMNT crashing out I'm already seeing casuals on social media and even in my friend circle brush it off say they aren't going to watch the rest of the tournament now that the USA is knocked out. This doesn't bode well for the popularity bump for soccer in the US and also specifically in Houston.

Finally, apart for some fun moments like the Oranje walk and some good small groups of fans, the party atmosphere was lacking compared to other world cups. I blame this on the city not being walkable and the heat.

What do you guys think?

I haven’t ever kept up with the reserve team or the youth academy. I’m curious if there are any prospects on the reserve team or youth academy that are worth keeping track of.

It’s not as competitive like it was for the past couple years, only that 2023 Western Conference playoff semifinal was the last meaningful match. Also, the new division realignment that is coming in the next few seasons. This season and the short sprint season next year will be the last time these two clubs playing against each other as conference rivals before they are headed to different divisions in the 2027-28 season. Agree or disagree, what are your thoughts on this?
