Any details yet? The LAT (with story from the Associated Press - no beat writer) was silent about it, the summary on MLSNET doesn't mention it, and the Cybersoccernews squib says nothing. MAybe, just maybe, its not too bad - you would think if it was a major injury that would be newsworthy.

I sit over the tunnel at CCS and they carried him out w/o shoes on, but no ice on ankle of leg, he did not show to be in pain.
Sprained ankle. Should be able to practice tomorrow. The yellow get got last night means he'll miss Saturday's match anyway.

Well, maybe the yellow accumulation suspension is a blessing in deep disguise. At least the ankle should be more than fine for next week.

It didn't sound good, at all, last night. Thought he might be seriously hurt, but when I read the game summary in the USA Today paper they didn't mention it at all.
Unfortunately, we won't have him available for the Crapids match, but, at least he's not out for the year, which would've been a DISASTER!!!!
Hopefully, he'll be back for the Wizards match at the RB next Wednesday.

Am i the only one? You are not alone, ssanchez. I, too, have an intense HATRED for the Quacks, though whenever Donovan plays for the USMNT, I will cheer for him like CRAZY.
I so hope we get a shot at those SOBs again this year.
Have every confidence that it will be a different result, especially with a healthy Ruiz.
