Only Suggs remains on the Unknown list. Including the new signings, the squad is at 18. Will this squad be a small tight knit deal, or will it have some depth (to survive a long season of unknown issues).

A few weeks back Santi Moar was reported as returning but as of this Tweet (Xeet?), it looks like he is moving on from NMU.

So we are down to only not knowing about Tambakis, Yearwood, Suggs, Wehan, and Hamilton. Though there has been chatter that Hamilton is leaving.

Same here. I think this is a case of people growing up with something, loving it. Example: I didn’t grow up here, so I find Dion’s Pizza kind of meh. But a significant number of my friends who grew up here think it is best pizza ever. My ideal pizza on the other hand would be Pontillo’s Pizza from NY. (Bushnell’s Basin specially). Though I’m sure if a Pontillos opened here, people from New Mexico would be meh about it.

Please don’t tell me that Texans where trying to shoot down spy balloons (in their minds).

The PDF of the proposed lease has the map of proposed stadium.

Also:

Edit: One other thing, I saw a theme from the posters on other social media sites that don’t support a stadium (even if it being mostly privately funded). That is along the lines of “where will the balloons launch from” or similar. The stadium will be built on the other side of some power lines where the balloons stay away from. In one of the renders, the power lines are visible:

Is this like Austin City Limits but in Albuquerque?

From IFAB:

Sending-off offences

A player, substitute or substituted player who commits any of the following offences is sent off:

• denying the opposing team a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity by a handball offence (except a goalkeeper within their penalty area)

• denying a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity to an opponent whose overall movement is towards the offender’s goal by an offence punishable by a free kick (unless as outlined below)

• serious foul play

• biting or spitting at someone

• violent conduct

• using offensive, insulting or abusive language and/or action(s)

• receiving a second caution in the same match

• entering the video operation room (VOR)

Serious foul play

A tackle or challenge that endangers the safety of an opponent or uses excessive force or brutality must be sanctioned as serious foul play.

Any player who lunges at an opponent in challenging for the ball from the front, from the side or from behind using one or both legs, with excessive force or endangers the safety of an opponent is guilty of serious foul play.

A studs up challenge makes a tackle excessive.

(I’m looking for one in particular, and will update when I find it)

Is driving out? If not, could you rent a car to get back? If so, their airport has service to Phoenix, Dallas, and Denver. Once at one of those cities, your options open up.

Edit:

Looks like there is a bus called “the Blue Bus” (North Central Regional Transit District ) that goes from Farmington to Chama. The route is called 170 JICARILLA. According to the linked to pdf, it is fare free, but I wouldn’t trust that document. Give them a call to find out more: 505-629-4725 / 866-206-0754

Looking at their routes, it looks like it would be possible (depending on times) to get all the way to Edgewood. So in this case, your mission would be to get to Farmington from Durango. Then take a bus or three to the nearest Railrunner stop, hop on that and straight to Albuquerque.

I do read them. I find it really odd when higher end restaurants end up in the red.

Actually looks like moving domains is not possible with Lemmy because it breaks federation. I’m still looking into solutions. I may need to spin up a new instance to and transition to that.

I mean, sure. But currently, both my domains have a soccer theme. If I went a more general New Mexico route, a more general tld would be appropriate.

Are you, by chance, on our discord?

Tonight’s Ref is averaging 4.5 yellows a match(across all competitions) with a high of 9 and a low of 4. They have pointed to the spot three times. The highest level of competition they have refed this season is the NWSL Challenge Cup.
