Generic media/team DC United coverage thread (this stuff doesn't deserve it's own thread)

I swear we have something in the air in DC that causes an increase in concussions.

 

It certainly affects the new administration.

 

That's very sad. I have a friend who has Alzheimers and shows a decline with every conversation.

 

You could almost stock a team with United players whose careers have been cut short by concussion issues:
Eskandarian; Gros; Namoff; Rolfe; et. al.

Talon and some of the team went to the WH Easter egg roll...and then kicked it around with the lad from 1600 Penn linky to insider's story

 

Even if "the lad's" father never preyed upon ignorance and hatred, even if the "the lad's" father never gloated about his serial sexual assaults, even if "the lad's" father wasn't a clown who humiliates the nation every goddamned day before breakfast, I would still hate "the lad's" father for wanting to kick Miguel Aguilar out of the country.

Fück his fücking father.

 

That may have been the longest amount of time of time "the lad" has been at 1600 Penn.

 

Perennially overlooked .... i guess that's one way to pronounce average.

 

No. Above average.

 

"Participant"

 

Anyone who's watched this team consistently in 2016 and 2017 and doesn't think Nyarko makes this team better is misguided or intentionally negative

 

He does of course but if given the chance to actually make D.C. United good and not bad like they are nearly entirely right now I wouldn't hesitate to move him.

 

Are you saying a trade/transfer of some sort or hypothetically?

 

Definitely a trade where we can benefit. I don't think he'd become to another team what Rolfe became to us so we wont regret it. We haven't really felt Pontius's loss and he hasn't done much as Philly. Unlike Pontius I think we could get a good piece for him even if it cost an international slot or some allocation on top to sweeten it.

 

I agree, he makes the club better but clearly he does not take them over the hump.

 

We need more creativity on the ball like he has, and, importantly, on the field with him and Acosta at the same time. Personally, I'd trade Sam and Neagle, combined, before I'd trade Nyarko.

 

You will get empty egg containers for Sam and Neagle.

 

I would have called him perennially injured.

When United acquired him, I was hesitant not because of his capabilities but because of his injury and concussion history. He was never going to last a full season.

 

That article is crap. If that is MLS refereeing, the 82nd minute "warning" is like doing a lifeboat drill on the Titanic as it slips beneath the waves. So, PRO says its OK to foul the crap out of a talented player all game and then, at the last minute tell said team "no mas." I get -- ass clowns.
