American soccer writing, history & data.
Please check out my Atom and RSS feeds (your choice) where you'll get reminders when I post pieces on occasion on this site's soccer blog.
I'm also on Bluesky if you want to see my more cheeky, off-the-cuff soccer (and other) takes. @dancreel.com on Bluesky
Update: 3 July 2026
More updates to the Soccer Almanac site. First, we've started adding goalscorers to matches. Currently those updates include NASL seasons 1967 to 1970 and all the St. Louis leagues on the site through the 1926-27 season. We'll be adding more goalscorers over time.
Second, we've added something called "League lineages." This is an overall placeholder to help make sense of how leagues (and cup competition) evolved over time. It's a middle ground between being overly pedantic but still being diligent in what our collective history tells us. We'll be adding similar "lineages" at the club and/or team level.
