Watching #BallardFC win the #USL2 championship over the weekend has me thinking about #prorelforusa . Like, I get that it would be fun to follow Ballard in #USL1, but it seems fraught. The club would need all new players, because Ballard is made up of college kids that play NCAA soccer during the USL1 season. I know we root for laundry, but it wouldn't be the same without Stas and PK and Gaffney and the rest of the crew. The front office would have to hire like crazy, too.

Looking for a way to get to the #USL2 championship? Take the party bus with us from Reuben's Brews!

Absolutely. When I lived in Victoria, I had the Highlanders (#USL2). When I was in Ottawa before that, there was the Fury (#NASL / #USLC), and that's when I discovered my love for the game.

The last six years, without anything within driving distance, has been downright painful.

I'm definitely looking forward to the 2024 launch (fingers crossed).

I pulled the trigger and ended up ordering two different #YorkUnited and #FCEdmonton scraves, as well as #AtleticoOttawa . I'll have to wait for the #VancouverFC shop to go online before I order one of theirs.

I think I have scarves from every #CanPL side and/or one of their supporters group(s) at this point.

I looked into finally grabbing one from #ThunderBayChill of #USL2, but they're charging $50 before tax & shipping. That's pretty far out of line with the going rate.

I also bought season tickets to my local team, Oakland County FC, which is only #USL2 but still should be fun to watch. I'd like to make it to at least one #DetroitCityFC game this year too.
