If #MLS renamed “discovery rights” to something more innocuous (and accurate!) nobody would even care anymore.

“First refusal rights.” “Signing rights.” Etc. That’s all it would take!

For the last time

I should be “the MLS Cup”

Not “MLS Cup”

Even though it’s “MLS” and not “the MLS”

“MLS” doesn’t take an article, but “Cup” does, and in “the MLS Cup”, “the” grammatically refers to “Cup”, not to “MLS”

Saying “MLS Cup” without “the” is a hypercorrection

I’m on my way back from #IETF123 in Madrid.

Here is a quick summary:

· A seven day conference is pretty exhausting 😪
· Pretty excited about the long term future of #MLS. Not necessarily for interoperability but as a well tested building block
· Significantly less excited about MIMI
· We should specify #XMPP over WebTransports
· Bluesky seems to have some genuine interest in standardizing some of their low level, infrastructure technologies
· #JMAP community still doing new and exciting things

The best thing, hands down, to come out of this past weekend in #football.

Angel Di Maria sends off a rival defender with just a stare 🤣.

Context for you #MLS and #PremierLeague watchers:

Game is Lanús vs Rosario Central, ref blows a (clear) penalty against Lanús. Lanús defender Izquierdoz yells at ref: "No seas ladrón!" (don't be a thief!). Di Maria stares at ref like "you're gonna let him talk to you like that?".

Ref proceeds to red card Izquierdoz 😂
