The Tacoma Defiance have had some very productive No. 9s. But Mark Bronnik’s 2026 stands out for reasons that go beyond scoring a bunch of goals.

hadn't fully appreciated the Stars' woes, which is saying something. The worst NWSL season ever per @americansocceranalysis.com data (from 2016) by almost 0.5 xGD/game. A chance to have the worst xG/game and xGA/game on record, too. Only 2016 Orlando's 0.72 xG/game is worse and there's still time.

Draft mode is now live for everybody (if you watched it on @xowngoals.com), also a bug that the blind modes had every position sorted by g+ anyways, so you could just pick the "top" player, is now fixed. Naughty naughty.

Road to 75
Spin a fantasy MLS squad out of every team-season since 2013, then chase 75 points and MLS Cup.
