    I knew I smelled fraud when it comes to our team. Our team "goals" are nothing more than a pyramid scheme!

    Pyramid schemes are nothing new to MLS. Hell, Herbalife is a jersey sponsor.

    I just was not sure as we never get to see him play. It was also interesting to see that Greg Jordon has a locker. I enjoyed the tour and the win last night.

    Amway was SJE's sponsor.

    I think Xango might be sketchy.

    There's a joke in there somewhere, right? Or are you being serious, E?

    Serious. Glasses.com, owned by 1800CONTACTS, which is HQed in Utah is negotiating with RSL. 1800CONTACTS was purchased for $900 million last year by WellPoint (Blue Cross), who are worth $50+ billion.

    I wonder what Zarek Valentin's availability would be after his loan to Glimt is up (assuming a deal isn't worked out for him to stay). Montreal has some homegrowns that have been getting minutes on the back line, and from what I remember Valentin was a Jesse Marsch guy, which might explain the loan.

    If your going to preach club goals of fielding primarily local talent, why not actually do it.

    Then we need Jeff Larentowicz in the midfield, Andrew Wenger up top/defense, and Ben Olsen as coach.

    I'd be happy with Convey.

    Does anyone know if Neumann can actually play a position other than striker?

    Quibble: Alexander the Great sure as heck isn't of the same ethnic group as the Slavic Macedonians that Oka belongs to. The ethnic group from FYROM wasn't even in the Balkans in ancient times.

    Realistically....neither are modern greeks. 2000 years does a lot when there is constant empires built and falling.

    Lahoud will definitely get the nod at RB.
