    This is pretty cool; must be awesome for a young player. Gyasi Zardes is backed by Messi.

    ^Very cool, neat find @MPNumber9. Great to see Gyasi laughing and happy. Still think he has lots to give.

    Gyasi "Backed by Messi" - I hope it helps him up his game at least

    I'm going to admit it. There's a piece of me that doesn't want to let Zardes go because he just seems like a wonderful human being. Great representative of the Galaxy brand.

    Great profile. I'm really rooting for him. He strikes me a little like Todd Dunivant. I doubt if he'll make the Olympic team (assuming we even have one) but he seems like he's got everything he needs to have a great MLS career. His composure on the field was noticeable right away, and what a bonus to have guys training in Galaxy II that can step right into games as needed.

    This actually raises an interesting question. Will he and his partner get parental leave?

    Kinda cool. Though if it comes to tax advice, Gyasi should stick with H&R block...

    I have an ignorant question: how does this kind of surrogacy work?

    Do they just decide which of the couple provides the seed? Is there a way to get both their DNA in the mix? Do they use the egg from a sister? Is a genetically engineered supersperm created with characteristics of both?

    Will the kid grow up to be a renowned TV producer with impressive soccer skills and a flair for fashion? Or perhaps an injury prone brony?

    Answers:
    1. Yep
    2. Ummmmmmm.....
    3. That does happen. So that would sort of answer #2 - yes.
    4. Not. So that would mean #2 answer is a big No.
    5. So Brek Shea Jr.
    6. Poor baby - I hope not!

    Reading between the lines of their announcement (and looking at the baby), it appears this baby is Robbie's boyfriend's genetic child.

    A bit on the De Jong deal:

    "
    Fine print on De Jong's Galaxy deal
    The LA Galaxy got a sweetheart deal on Nigel de Jong this year and is only paying him $500,000 in 2016. But I’m told that De Jong has a big incentive to perform well. According to his contract with the Galaxy, if De Jong plays in 23 games this season he’ll earn a guaranteed Designated Player contract of around $3 million a year for 2017 and ’18.

    The Galaxy know this is Steven Gerrard’s last year with the team, so the club has a Designated Player slot available for next year that De Jong would fill."

    Nice for Rowe... but it must have been a pretty slow week for saves for that one to win.
