The recent signing of Marcello Gallardo got me thinking (I know, I know--always dangerous). The original justification (and what was probably...
As I was looking at Galarcep's article on what teams have done in terms of signings, looking at DCU's list of foreign talent (basically, over half...
In Steve Goff's last post on his blog soccer insider, he indicates that a European team made an offer for Taylor Twellman but NE (ala Shalrie...
At this time of the year, it's natural for many of us to reflect of some of the things we're thankful for. Yeah, things aren't perfect with MLS...
Once again, my work took me to the Great White North the past 3 weeks for various work-related trips. And once again, I wore some of my United...
First, I had a chance to bump into Mo at National Airport in DC after the MLS Cup. Nice guy, very friendly and represents your club well. I...
Steve Goff is reporting that Emilio has won the MVP award over Blanco or Angel. He also said that Emilio, Olsen and Gomez made the MLS XI (no...
I'd like this thread to be for assumptions/theories/best guesses as to how each team will approach this game tactically. This is not about game...
I usually think that Frank Del'Apa is a shameless homer who's insights on soccer are feeble though he phrases them with decent style. However,...
It's official--Preki was chosen as coach of the year in MLS this season. While I personally feel Soehn was better (for a couple of reasons),...
As if we didn't need any more reasons for MLS teams to own their own stadium and not have to share them with non-soccer residents (ie:...
Ives Galarcep says it is looking much more likely that DCU is still talking with Veron and that the team will add him in 2008. I'm guessing that...
Steve Goff is off in China for the Women's WC. So...while he's gone, Dan Steinberg (of the W. Post "Sports Bog") is holding down the fort. He...
Not just a result but an absolute butt-kicking on the road--a remarkable performance in that context. 4-0 for DC United. No trolls. Oh,...
Didn't see this mentioned in another thread but my apologies if it's a repetition. Steve Goff (in his Soccer Insider blog at the W.Post) notes a...
I know that the forced trade of the #1 pick to DCU by the league so United would end up with Adu had a lot of Dallas Burn fans crying foul at the...
Well, I'm on vacation with my family in upper Maine (both the coast and the hinterland). So I'm scaling Mt. Cadillac wearing my DC United hat....
Good guys win 2-0. No trolls tolerated.
Didn't see this anywhere else but thought folks should know the details. All of DC United's Boy's Youth teams qualified for Nationals this year....
Rumor is that St. Louis is pushing hard for an MLS franchise (get in line folks) and the name that they wish to use is....St. Louis United....
Kudos to the Barra Brava, SE, La Norte. Although the article is primarily about the BB, all of you get some well-deserved props. And in a...
Okay, we know that San Jose is a definite for 2008. That has some immediate implications for the current 13 MLS teams: there will be an...
In an ideal world, this would not be an "either or" choice. But in the reality that the LA Galaxy is in right now, you've got a thin roster, a...
Okay....the reality is that if you adjust for games in hand, MLS is most pretty bunched up. Which means that a team that hits a slump at the end...
This isn't especially profound but when you look at the guys we played today (especially the younger players--ie: not Emilio or Olsen or Moreno),...
