@ryanboros I pondered the same a few days ago. #MastodonFC seems to make the most sense.

Also liked #Mastofút but too niche. #AtleticoMastodon sounds good but not as widely applied.

"Years have gone by and I've finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good soccer. I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: "A pretty move, for the love of God!" —Eduardo Galeano (Soccer in Sun and Shadow)

Bahrain 2 - Canada 2

Positive pre- #WorldCup2022 effort for the #Canada #CanMNT against #Bahrain despite missing many of the top players, and the pitch being in rather poor condition. Allowing many of the younger players to get a chance for minutes

@jhonygutierrez There are *several* head scratchers on this roster, IMHO. Several. Not a huge confidence booster as we head towards the #FIFA22 #WorldCup #USMNT #soccer #MastoFut #MastoFootie

#FIFAUncovered just dropped on #Netflix. Here's a good article on how this four part docu-series contextualizes this year's #WorldCup and the lack of transparency and ugliness leading up to the beautiful game's most important tournament: https://www.ft.com/content/434d2cc8-8fd2-4d77-81af-b3f79a38c955

🎧 #Podcasts I've enjoyed listening to in the lead-up to the #WorldCup:

1. World Corrupt - #MeninBlazers and #Crooked Media "join forces to explore what it means to be a fan and a responsible citizen of the world while watching the most popular sporting event on the planet." https://crooked.com/podcast-series/world-corrupt/

Really a shame that Bobby Firmino didn't make the #Brazil #WorldCup squad. Aside from scoring more goals that his selected peers, he brings moments of dazzling brilliance that would have been a treat to see in the tournament.

Excellent! Clearly, I’m ok with the fútbol reference— it’s in my handle! BTW, it’s FemmeFutbolATL because I learned Spanish as a kid, then went to school in France, and currently live in Atlanta. Let’s get after it! Are you ready for some fútbol?! #Mastofút

@therealzatarain @FemmeFutbolATL it just rolls off the Mastotongue... #Mastofút! We're pioneering here.

@AlexKarabanow Team #Mastofút for conciseness but I'm down with variations as long as we find each other. :D

@FemmeFutbolATL Yes to all of that, which is why I'm seeking refuge on this microblogging app instead of the other one and focusing on the other important aspects of life, like how to rally around fútbol/football. I'm partial to #Mastofút for conciseness, but it's also driven. by having grown up speaking Spanish.

@jhonygutierrez Maybe #Mastofoot or #Mastofut?

So what do we call the ⚽️ corner of mastodon? #Mastofootie? #Soccerdon? #Mastofút?

(Looking at you, #football #soccer #mls #worldcup #futbol folks.)
