    Doug's tenure is longer than Elkin's now, right?

    edit - he is. Elkin was hired in as VP of Communications in Feb. 2008, left after the 2008 season. This is already Doug's third season.

    I'm assuming you pick Hicks up at the DC United FO yard sale they had a few years ago. A communications director is like a central defender if you don't remember much about him/her it means they are doing their job right.

    he better credit his teammates. parking the bus has gotten him the most consecutive starts in his career.

    At least he isn't Zac McMath.

    The Fire is a bit more like performance art than "state of the art."

    Are you sure they're not using empty beer cans from the North Lot?

  20. No, the FO has interns collecting cans for recycling. It's called stretching the Andell budget by whatever means necessary.

    It has to be down to the medical staff at this point. Either that or the Fire are the New England Patriots of MLS and just lie about injuries for a "competitive advantage."
