    Beas with a left footed cracker from outside the 18, but right to the goalie.

    The attendance at this game makes Kansas City Wizards look wildly popular.

    No shortage of chances for Beasley...

    But surely it represents 95% of Kilmarnock's population*

    He's been very active and probably Rangers MOM, although the introduction of JDC at half-time clearly turned the game around.

    Beas looks to be one of the more active Rangers players.

    DMB subbed out with no time remaining. Game over. Rangers 4-0-0, hand Kilmarnock first loss. Great start of the day for YA.

    Good for Damarcus. This is really an ideal situation. He gets to be at a big club, but he can get his confidence playing in meaningful games against weak clubs. I think the ideal situation. Can't wait to see him play in the old firm games and the CL. I think by the middle of the season, we will know whether he's a critical component of the USMNT present, or a part of its past.

    So far, I'm leaning towards the former.

    Official attendance was listed at 11,000+*, so it's probably on par with KC. The seats in the stand that the camera was facing aren't the greatest, so that might explain the sparse population. I went to a match with an attendance of 7,600 last year. The atmosphere was still great.

    In Kilmarnock's defense, its population is almost exactly 1/10th that of Kansas City.

    *I'm full aware that the majority of those 11,000 were probably Rangers fans.

    Away allocations rarely go above 3000, quite a large attendance as far as Killie are concerned, its about 20% of the population.

    From the highlights, it looks like Rangers supporters got the Chadwick (normally given to away supporters) and Moffat stands to themselves.

    According to my father, it's a damn shame DMB even considered thos "rag tag thugs from the bad side of Glasgow". But he has to be happy that DMB has had a fantastic start to the season. Aren't we all! Is it safe to safe DMB is becoming a fan favorite?

    Those Rangers jerseys are real nice by the way. Maybe my favorite in Europe this season.

    I'm definitely gaining more confidence in Beasley as a fan of the US National Team. This is real good for him. He will be a big name in Scotland by now and would have never have gotten the same kind of fan fare he will get now back in ol' Eindhoven.

    Considering his age and that he's been one of the most important cogs in the USMNT in the past 2 years (second most assists after Donovan, and up there in goals as well, despite missing games due to injury), I have trouble understanding why you would even consider Beasley part of the past.

    Or the name will scare off any challengers, thus making him soft.

    Me, I think I'll name my boy Sue.

    I won't even ask what's the difference between Mick Jagger and a Kilmarnock fan ...
