I have problems with some of Talarico's theology. I'm sure Hamilton and I disagree somewhere too. But evangelicals have lost any right to decide who is not a "real Christian." They have promoted racists, heretics, and abusers. They cannot rightly discern orthopraxy OR orthodoxy.

For the record being a follower of Christ has zero dependence on who wins an election.

@GlennDavisSoc Ben plays not to lose instead of playing to win. His system sets us up to minimize risk, whether we are a possession team or a counter team. Any goals we score on the attack are a bug, not a feature.
The Dynamo have won 1 in 11 matches. It doesn’t seem to be a concern due to holding down 5th place in the west and we got a big pr blitz this week but questions remain. The main talking point at the beginning of the year was scoring goals. How would they become more goal dangerous? One shot on goal tonight by Guilherme. Is it the structure/tactics ? Personel? Conservative approach? Give us your thoughts? #SoccerMatters

We can’t say this isn’t deserved. He’s only had one poor season as far as results go. Our owner and GM remain happy with joyless soccer that has never truly been in the conversation to win it all. That’s bigger than Ben. It’s as much as about player recruitment.

Immensely proud of Brooklyn Raines. Dude will always be a dynamo in my heart.

Brooklyn Raines on field for @USMNT against Chile. Big moment! Dynamo midfield could use him now.

But how early did they do it in the window? That’s clearly the important question.
Sporting Kansas City went and did something in the window.

2-0 down at the half with a red to the worst team in the West. Tell me again @asherhdfc, how good was our transfer window though?

This is an absolute disaster. If we showed a tenth of the fight in attacking as we do in a pointless scrap…

I like Samassekou, but he is not a good sub for Bouzat. Bouzat is like 80% of our midfield mobility. trading him out for a nearly stationary DM makes us less dynamic. I’d rather see Holmes Arana or Rivera come on for Bouzat & Sama for HH or Artur.

With his RIGHT FOOT?! There’s no stopping him now!
JACK MCGLYNN'S FIRST STOKE CITY GOAL IS A BEAUTY 🇺🇸🔥 Watch the EFL Championship on @paramountplus 📺

My hot take: Bouzat and Aliyu, both unlikely to get praise, freed up Gui play absolutely wherever which made his positioning less predictable which directly his goal. Solid line up choices from Ben.

120 minutes of goalless, even toothless, soccer. Glad we got our homework done early. 😐

This is an admission that the squad isn’t deep enough. Ben doesn’t want to play Dos kids. Never has. The players he does trust are going to get overworked. Emotionally prepping myself to limp in to playoffs and get bounced bc of a fatigued squad. Feels bad man.
Onstad says they have cap flexibility to sign free agents but they want to see how the team does the next few weeks. They have until October to finalize the roster. Says the roster is a little thin but that gives Ben and staff ability to give some guys from Dynamo 2 minutes.

What a frustrating window by Pat, @asherhdfc and the @HoustonDynamo FO. - They did well to unload some high wage/low contribution players - Whiffed on Balde and El Hadj - Brought in only way player, Foster, who has a questionable scoring record - Sold Jack - Are we better?

@HoustonDynamo FO had an incredible opportunity to offload players and bring in talent to push this team into the title conversation. We failed to make that happen. Allowing Jack to leave was the right thing, but we failed to replace him. The team is worse than it was before.

This window feels an awful lot like the window we sold Coco and Micael. Most of the players out won’t make a huge difference being gone, but once again we miss the chance to build on a team doing well. Can’t wait for the “cleared cap space” trophy 🏆

club stats aren’t thrilling, but a loan with purchase option is nice. We have the chance of preventing another Ponce if he doesn’t look good this season. Definitely rooting for this guy to click! Most of us weren’t stoked about Gui, and look how that worked out!! 🤞

Saracchi in was a good move. Dunc in was a meh move. If that’s all the incomings after selling Jack (and some high-salary/low-contribution players), this window has to be seen as a failure and questions need to be asked of the GM.
⏰ MLS summer transfer window closes tonight (1am ET) Several teams should be busy today + previously agreed deals getting done Reminder: Teams don’t *have* to announce deals by deadline, just need paperwork filed/approved. Can be announced later too

If this is a plan B bc Chicho fell through: 😬 If this is planned in addition to a striker that can and does actually finish: 🆗🤷‍♂️ If we don’t have a plan B after Chicho: 🤦‍♂️
Houston Dynamo are reportedly looking at forward Mama Baldé from Stade Brestois. The 30-year-old can play across the front line and would add some much-needed pace and experience to the attack.
