    Concussions really are serious business and it's really sad how it's cut his career short.

    So? Now they won't have him and we still have two solid defenders.

  7. And that $4.9999999 million goes in Andycakes pocket and not a dime to improve the team, facility, or academy.

    fair enough, but I liken Nimrod shaking the soccer world to Ryan Pace outbidding himself for MIke Glennon - I'm more worried about what it says about his talent judgement than I am about the wasted money.

  10. Very valid point about N-Rods talent judgement. Most of the key players have performed to expectations but he hasn’t unearthed, or developed any diamonds in the rough and that’s what sets you apart.

    What's this? The "Blind Draw" was never blind at all?
    https://deadspin.com/mls-used-a-blind-draw-to-decide-where-jermaine-jones-wi-1626425630


    On Instagram Live, Jermaine Jones just accused Don Garber of rigging the infamous “blind draw” to send Jones to New England instead of Chicago a few years ago.

    Because he knew that Andi didn't want him, because he would have to use REAL money to sign him. What's sad is that Kraft did. Kraft probably one of the cheapest owner in the league, but at least in the early years he was one of three owners that probably saved the league (the other two Anschutz & Hunt). Anschutz and Hunt probably get most of the credit, but I think Kraft had a little to do with it.

    Well, there goes the Fire's chances of Winning the East.

    The Fire's odds for the World Cup remain unchanged, though.

    I actually thought he was out of the game or had fallen to a D2 club.

    Not about players, but here goes:
    I'm realllllly hoping to eventually see a Sarachan/Osorio clash between the US and Mexico. Sir Dave the Short has made it clear he wants to run the Nats all by himself, and Osorio might actually be kept on, so ya never know.

    I'm talking about a friendly or something. If Sarachan gets the nod, he'll probably last longer than Osorio anyway. I doubt JCO will be around. If he does well, he'll bail. If he doesn't, he's fired.
