    Why War, Prediction Markets and Capitalism are Detrimental to Soccer

    Soccer and sports are supposed to allow us time to not focus on all the rest, the things we have to think about and deal with that we'd rather not. In the last week, however, we've seen the USLPA vote to authorize a strike, a World Cup host country attack one of the teams that qualified for its tournament, an MLS partner enabling people to profit from war and death and the brave Town of Foxboro has stood up to FIFA. Heady stuff, for sure, but it must be tackled and Oliver Scholes and Thomas are ready to go in studs up! The best way to keep up with Oliver is at The Blazing Musket.You can follow Thomas on BlueSky.

    Revs II Season Preview

    The MLS Next Pro season kicks off this weekend and a revamped Revs II is back in action for 2026. They had a lot of turnover this past off-season and with a youth minded coach with the first team, Revs II are worth keeping an eye on this season. Literally no one follows this team like Josh Nye does for The Blazing Musket, he's here to get us all caught up and ready for the new season! Thomas opened the show with some words on Merrimack New Hampshire, South Georgia Tormenta, the blizzard of 2026 and the USLPA before Josh joined as well. The best way to follow Revs II is with Josh's coverage at The Blazing Musket and on BlueSky.
