i'm pleased to hear this. it should be one of ongoal's missions to win this thing every year. this would be a great tradition to begin... and honestly, if you win it for like 15 years in a row, it could become a legitimate recruiting tool.

it's also nice to see playing surface excellence in the town that brought sports george toma.

Was it Freddie Ljungberg who remarked that KC has the only pitch in the league that reminded him of Europe? It was an imported player, but I'm not sure which one.

This is especially impressive given the situation. I can only imagine what it'll be like when we don't have to share a field with a baseball team.
