Since there should be a lot more interest here with Atlanta joining I figured this might be useful.

Put all info and reports etc here and I'll try to organize in OP best I can.

Sean Johnson to NYCFC. GAM and TAM back to Atlanta.

He has to be better than the trash NYC routinely put in goal this year.

Wonder if Atlanta getting Johnson then immediately shipping him off means there is some weight behind the Guzan to Atlanta noise. Would certainly be a great pickup as Guzan badly needs to get somewhere where he will actually play.

Do streaming services count in those ratings, or is it actual cable only?

I tried to look it up, but what does that compare to? Or do you have a link that explains it?

Fox screwed up the end of the game. Tempted to email them and let them know, pissed me off.

My local didn't screw up the end with the Powerball drawing that others did. They did however cut in at least 3 times during the game providing election results.

Unprotected List for Tuesday's Expansion Draft

Atlanta and Minnesota get 5 picks each. Once a player from an existing team is selected, that team is off-limits for the remainder of the draft. Picks alternate with Atlanta going first.

I would like to see Atlanta pick up Jared Watts.

He was a part of why Colorado had the best defense in the history of MLS.  He is big at 6’2”.  He is a quality #6 and can also play CB.  He is young at 24 and captained the USMNT U17 at their World Cup.

Next choice would be Bobby Boswell of DC United.

He is a quality, experienced CB.  At 34, he should provide about 3 good years of leadership and good play on the backline.  He could solidify the defense in the opening years until the next transition is made.
