The Revolution Academy needs to make some changes.

Something for his boss to ponder.

His “boss” is his college roomie.

You have not been listening. Scales doesn’t give a sh*t about the Bolts, he doesn’t give a sh*t about the boys in the Revs Academy. Give one example of any behavior that says different. Any action beyond doing the minimum not to get sanctioned by MLS.

I think it's more likely just organizational incompetence. I'm sure they care about the MLS Revs but they are awful also. I think the Pats success is more luck than anything else. I don't think anyone, including Bob Kraft, knew the genius of Bill Belichick before they hired him. Nor did Belichick truly know the genius of Tom Brady before picking him. But NE fans got a little lucky in both regards. Now that Belichick and Brady are on the back 9, look for the Pats to join the Revs and take a hard fall back to earth.

(just want to throw this in also. Take a lesson from Bill Belichick on how dangerous pride can be. I'm guessing it was some prideful reason that he left Malcolm Butler out of last years Superbowl game (if there was a legit reason, we certainly would have heard it by now). Butler sat. Fans fumed. The Pats lost. Belichick has lost his team because they fought all year just to have their coach pull the rug from them in the most important game of the year. They should have been coming into this year looking for ring #7, instead, because of his pride, Belichick and his legacy are about to take a huge hit and bring the fans of Foxboro right back to the hard reality of incompetence land where the Revs have dwelled for too many years now.)

rant over.

Sustained mediocrity given the starved resources the Revs get from the Krafts probably isn't too bad. A hattip to Scales and Burns for bumping along for so long. Clearly, if the org had ambitions they'd be gone, but on a shoestring budget they've managed to keep the Revs playoff contenders every season.

A long run in the playoffs would probably only be too costly b/c it's not like attendance would jump if they won the MLS Cup or Supporters Shield. Same with the academy teams - if they went deep in the playoffs or GA Cup that's just more plane rides to pay for.

The new training facility will be nice, I suppose, though that means no soccer-specific stadium anywhere. I can't see how a few fields and a building on land already owned by the Krafts totals up to $35m but whatever. The bummer is that I'd watch the Revs in a decent stadium with atmosphere like many if not most of the other MLS teams have managed to put together. It's more fun to watch Portland fans go nuts than to sit the empty feeling of Gillette even if there are 20 thousand people there. Seeing the gridiron lines is a nice throwback look though.

After Amazon neg-ed on suffolk downs - perfect op for a stadium near public transport.

Don't get me started on the &^%% fields. What idiots in this NE rut to not build at least one indoor or domed training facility. Cancel, cancel cancel training... for $36M, they could have one indoor/dome. They are all numbnuts throwing bad money after bad.

A stadium at Suffolk Downs would be great. No need to be near the practice facilities.

Revs players can only afford to live around Foxboro. They don't want to drive that far.

A divisional team with a very harsh climate to the north signs two homegrowns with 3 year contracts for 2019. Scales adds 2 orange cones for the academy in 2019.

We care because Angking is both Homegrown and a delinquent. Let's recap the Revs HG's, Fagundez and Caldwell were both Bolts, that leaves Herivaux who hasn't started in 4 years and Angking who doesn't have a bright future if he continues with behavioral issues. Bottom line, one true Homegrown (Zach Herivaux, who plays for Haiti) in 13 years!!
Nice job Scales!!

Angking has had a few" uncoachables" according to Friedel. Sent home by Ramos from the U20 team. Amazing prospect, another banger from RI, Kraft Sports Group ready for another scandal.

Love the Revs PR machine really trying to sell this "bright future" and skipping the truth of him being sent home. Face it Revs, you are bottom of the barrel when it comes to development. Send "scout" Jasir Charris and his bumbling idiots packing back to Central Falls town soccer.

Charris and his coloring book are the cuddly mascot of the academy. He would be a great loss.
