Read the rest - The reason that's my impression is because every quote I see is talking about percentage this, percentage that - not making a...
Look, there are a couple of points where I would be very comfortable siding with the players if they came out saying "the increased compensation...
It has not been established what the source of those funds were, therefore we can't jump to the conclusion that it is in any way related to the...
So you haven't seen the text from "the Fed" itself and it hasn't been reported by a legitimate/objective third party - you're just taking the spin...
So that constitutes being "officially scheduled"? There have been a TON of rumored matches over the years that appeared in both places and then...
That's all well and good if you're isolating the MNT from the other programs that support it and pretending that U.S. Soccer is a for-profit...
Re: Cincinnati to field new pro soccer team That's not necessarily the case about "a lot of drinking at the stadium" - they'll be playing on a...
