Thought you might be interested in the following item from the blog of Steve Goff, who covers DC United for the Washington Post: "Our thoughts...
Today's Washington Post published a Steve Goff story on Ralston's setting the record:...
Guzan didn't impress me that much in the game Wednesday against Switzerland. Totally apart from the handling the ball out of the box incident, he...
I don't remember what we got for him, but I remember what we gave up for him. We sent a draft choice to San Jose, which they used to pick a guy...

Re: Official Good Guys vs. TFC Pregame Threat (Sept. 29) I'm feeling a lot better now.
In his front page story of the 4-0 disaster in the WWC, Steve Goff of the Washington Post observes that "the Brazilians danced with the ball at...
No way DC leaves Simms unprotected.
That would depend on a number of variables: 1 Vanney's willingness to take a sizeable pay cut. 2. The degree of progress in the middle by...
I agree completely with Cweedchop's analysis. And after watching Facundo chasing an attacker and getting a red card in yesterday's game against...
Some probably unrelated points: 1. As to DC United, how do you get to 9? We have three SYIs (Christian Gomez, Luciano Emilio, and Fred) and...
What's the "anti-DCU bias"? I sure as hell don't have it. I just went nuts at, once again, the sight of Erpen chasing an attacker who has gotten...
Even when he's not with us, Facundo Erpen's screw-ups threaten to screw up DC United. With Chivas our main competition for the SS, we needed...
Rimando gave up two goals last night against DC United, both on high crosses into the box. He also stopped a PK. That's Rimando: weak in the...
Nick Rimando isn't serious national team material, but he isn't the poor goal keeper some of these posts suggest. He's a superb shot-stopper...
I was also looking down from the mezzanine and, to me, it looked like it definitely crossed the line. At one point, Perkins, rolling back into the...
The center referee stank. Stank. Stank. STANK.
That's a wonderful bonus. Olsen is much, much more than just a goal scorer for DCU.
Re: DCU-FCD Post-Match Thread You're right on that. The cap poses a serious problem, but I often think that an "internal" cap of about $200K...
Re: DCU-FCD Post-Match Thread One reason Brian Carroll wasn't playing last night was a yellow card accumulation suspension. That said, I...
Unless some super-star attacking player is involved, I can't see trading Boswell. His problem is that he wasn't having the year this year that...
Re: Quaranta done for year I don't think Albright burned his bridges. He just couldn't cut it as forward at the MLS level, but successfully...
Where did this thread come from? THere's another, earlier thread, also started by Cweedchop.
Lucky you. I had FSC with Max Bretos. I didn't realize, till Motor Mouth Max told me. that Brian Namoff didn't play regularly for DC United. At...
Both Boswell and Gomez might find the reception they get from Europe or wherever, a lot less welcoming than they thought it would be when they...
