Getting back into the swing of things posting here. Here’s one from the Union’s loss to RBNY on Mother’s Day.
Will have more from Sixers vs. Celtics game 3 and Phillies vs. Red Sox soon.

8. PHILADELPHIA
Seattle’s expansion effort has gone so well that anything else isn’t the same by comparison, but the Union’s efforts have been sensational too. PPL Park is a great place to watch a soccer game, and the buzz around this team is real. Owner Jay Sugarman may not be very vocal, but CEO Nick Sakiewicz — long one of MLS’ top execs — makes up for it in a way that’s similar to AEG’s Tim Leiweke. On the soccer side, Philly has one of most promising youth development operations in the league. This is a team that’s going places.
