Let's face it Conrad's not the sexy choice. The one thing he has that our other choices do not, brains. He can organize the back line better...
Really, wow. Conrad is possibly the BEST center back in the league. One of the most important things that he adds is his ability to organize a...
Absolutely, class is the real issue. Or, put differently, economic status. The thing about CA is the club system for youth players is pretty...
I don't think that color is the issue...but obviously many people do. And this perception, whether true or not, is a problem. In CA south, as I...
But if you look at the rosters of CA ODP teams they have large numbers of Latino players. Which is what I think he meant by "works". Is it as...
Beat me to it...full on east coast bias. Bruce has always had it.
After looking over the cast list from the movie, I recognized other names as being from the same place that Andrew and Tommy grew up. So I would...
Tommy Britton is Andrew Britton's brother. Played some college soccer at UCI. Raised in Sothern California. Pretty sure born there too.
Not really fair comparison because Fitz really wasn't there long enough for us to rate. Look, I'm not the first person to suggest that Sigi maybe...
Well actually yes, I think Bocanegra is athletically in the same ball park as the players mentioned. Maybe not speed but in many other ways. And...
If by pro-style you mean packing the back then yeah that's how Sigi's UCLA teams played. His teams played very defensive albeit well organized...
I wonder how these same coaches would do with a team of youngsters. My guess is some would succeed and others would not. Interesting to think...
Well they have actually won a few National Championships. But I agree they should be a final 4 team every year and should have won more than they...
Honestly, there is no school like UCLA in Southern California. It has athletic resources that no other school has. Also it has continued to put...
Or we could start a thread about posters who bring nothing to the table
I love the idea that this midfield pairing is the reason we lost or played poorly in these games. Seriously are you kidding me?!?!? Correct me...
Conrad is also a good TEAM guy. If anyone was listening to that clip by Donovan during the game, he said Bruce likes guys who bring something...
Why does MLS insist on having the Cup in the middle of the day on Sunday? I'm confident attendance will suffer do to the fact that people have...
The smoke bombs were awesome!!! I'd love to see more of that. Flares would be cool too, but I'm sure homeland security would put you away for a...
When will US soccer learn? There is a significant population of Jamaicans(as well as other Caribbean nations) in the North East. Columbus is not...
LA has a double header with Cienfuegos' tribute match. We will get 20,000 or more.
Tired of Mexican food? Is that possible?
Actually Califf has had some ok game with the Nats and a couple of really bad games. Despite the venom people spew on these boards towards him,...
Somebody is smoking crack!
