Posting this here because it has 2 MLS games on the list. What a shitty list though. I do think there are a few MLS rivalries who can make it (Seattle vs Portland and Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact), but they aren't in it. DC United vs NYRB died when NYCFC started, and "el trafico" is like a few years old to be considered. Very artificial. Aside from that, where is Chivas vs Atlas? All Boys vs Nueva Chicago are rivals? Universitario - Alianza should be top 10 at least. Gremio - Inter is better than Fla/Flu and arguably the 2nd best on the entire list. Blooming vs Oriente Petrolero is too high up. San Lorenzo vs Huracan while historic are not good rivals since they don't fill up those games.

Chachapoyas is a bit of a hidden gem.

I am thinking of going to Chachapoyas in a few days for a relaxing AirBnB and Instagram trip. I have a dilemma, there are 2 places I am looking to stay in. Or... The first one is cheaper by a few dollars but is not very centric. The second one is centric but not as photogenic. I am really leaning towards option #1 because the idea is to get to know Chachapoyas at a slow pace but mostly just relax, listen to music and take a few pictures of my surroundings. The benefits to option 2 is it could save me a few extra bucks in taxi and I could just go outside to get to know the place, should I change my mind and feel more like exploring. Flight is about 300 soles ($75 USD). I am very tempted. @nudge

I joined the original TFF 9 years ago, christ. Where does the time go. Well aware this is nothing for most of you but for me it doesn't feel like that long ago.

Tomorrow I'm headed here which is a stadium in the worst district in Lima. If I don't come back, it probably means I got mugged or killed. Just leaving this here so justice is made if that happens. Wish me luck

@Tommy and anyone who hasn't posted in the "members pictures" thread

Bit of humour to laugh at myself.

I put the face and Chelsea crest on, yes. But I asked Dall-E to look up Terry fighting a thief in Callao. It's an inside joke I have with my dad. Basically we were saying how if you send a Londoner to a dangerous barrio in Lima or Callao, that they'd be targetted for having a "gringo" look, when in reality the Brit is just as badass as the thieves here

There are 2 that have my attention at the moment. Firstly, VEO AI Camera for football. This is one I'm looking to obtain first for my scouting business. It even offers analytics via what the camera records. It's really cool, and as someone who has had to watch games in this manner, it CAN be frustrating but it's a very useful way of recording the games as it records every little bit. Secondly, Dall-E. I'm sure @nudge has heard of it. Fun tool to just fuck around. A few images I made:

My birthday was 2 days ago. Not gonna lie it was the best and most caring birthday in years, really proved to me my evolution as a human.

Snow Leopard. That thing looks sweet.

Theres a lot of teams there + Tlaxcala, but I'm looking to move out to some hidden gem towns and a maybe somewhere like Morelia or Celaya for the football.

I'm really happy Callens and Lopez have both gone to Europe, especially the former who went back to Spain. It's not super easy for a player his age to go back there in the MLS. Lopez was going to end up there sooner or later however.

I'm saving up for a football trip around Mexico this August. I also have a few friends I want to meet. Any hidden gems around the CDMX nucleus? (nothing north of Guadalajara basically). There is a cool town called Taxco that I might stop by, looks neat.
