Should be announced soon. Houston has a press release up (http://www.mlsnet.com//news/team_news.jsp?ymd=20071204&content_id=131851&vkey=pr_hou&fext=.jsp&team=t200) that says Dallas playing in Houston on Sunday, April 6.

I know that FCD's season opener is on March 30th (woo hoo -- March, not April!) because I got the promo email for a Holiday gift pack . . .

It would be cool to know the schedule for next season. When, typically, is it announced (seeing as I'm new to this FCD-mania thing)? :)

OK. Here it is. This says it's Chivas on Sunday, March 30 (http://www.iht.com/articles/ap/2007/12/04/sports/SOC-MLS-Season-Opener.php)

It was actually newtex that found it (http://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showpost.php?p=13384794&postcount=58) and posted to the MLS N/A board.

Ramon having cleared waivers is still a Chivas property. He was making 6 figures, so I imagine the reasons chivas waived him was to get out from under his contract.

I expect they will try and re-sign him much cheaper.

or not. *shrugs*

poor Ramon... 100k in DFW is decent money. Less than 100k in LA is poverty!!!!

Yeah, he can't afford all that metrosexual clothing in LA making less than $100k.

He couldn't afford much of it here considering the number of times I saw him riding the VWC in the same crappy white suit and cheap shoes. Too bad he wasn't as interested in looking like a team player as he was in looking like a pimp.
