That is the intention behind the loan for Gerson who is a product of the Chivas USA youth academy”.

I'm just happy we have the opportunity to get him now,” said Chivas USA coach Robin Fraser, who came to the Goats from Real Salt Lake. “The good thing about him, too, is for all his ability, he's very humble and willing to do whatever the team needs him to do. You put that together with that kind of natural ability, he's a tremendous player to coach.”

Defender Carlos Ornellas (South Gate/Warren HS), 21, and midfielder Eddie Valencia (Los Angeles/Wilson HS), 20, died following a one-car accident early Saturday near the Utah-Colorado border, the Long Beach Press-Telegram reported. Teammate Briant Reyes (Downey/Downey HS), 21, suffered minor injuries to his arms and legs in the crash and was released from a Utah hospital later Saturday. http://espn.go.com/blog/los-angeles/soccer/post/_/id/10379/college-ex-cerritos-stars-die-in-crash Reyes won 2008 Sueno MLS with Chivas USA but was later released.
Holy crap, I remember this guy, I'm glad he's ok, but this is a tragedy. Poor kids, they probably would've had a good future as players.

http://au.fourfourtwo.com/news/223286,lessons-to-learn-from-the-mls.aspx Tom Payne “In fact I expect us to compete with ticket price standpoint – we aren’t a minor league team so we’re not going to sell tickets for $8.” Does anyone agree with Mr.Payne? Does the price of a ticket really make a club a minor league team or AEG just been AEG?. If we had a strong following like the Sounders or Galaxy would our FO raise the prices? They are a business; however, we all play in MLS.
if we had the demand prices would surely go up. For the most part hes talking out his ass typical AEG shill
