I attended the Sparta-Teplice game, which ended 0-0. It was a pretty good game but the goal just wouldn't come for Sparta. Their striker #9, a...
Dave - great job as always. Just an update on a former Yank Abroad - Charlie Jacob is still playing at Columbia U, he's a senior now. I will try...
Yes, I know it's a "cable issue," I said exactly that in my initial post. As for the sellout rule, I don't think my lonely butt in the seats is...
Like I said, I do go to one or two games every year. Going to every game is not possible. But I would like to see the games I do not go to...
I live in Brooklyn NY. So it's not that easy to go to a game, especially they way they schedule them. Like I said, I do go to at least one or...
Metros are not on cable TV here anymore because of the Cablevision - Time Warner dispute. There is little print coverage. Even the number of...
I'm not a Fire fan but I got to know Peter Wilt in his Minnesota Thunder days. Totally a class act - really, the complete package in professional...
Wow, Bo Oshonyi - I remember him from Southern Ct and the USL - I think it was the New York Fever or maybe the Ct Wolves, or both. Glad to see...
Hamm-star, thanks. Here is a link to an article by Michael Lewis about Maria:...

It's a hypothetical topic to begin with, but Japan seems right. Industrialized, large-population country applying its efforts in a concerted way...
If you are playing a "target man" system and don't have McBride, it's not crazy to have Wolyniec as a third forward. Many of you are very...
I just got back from Barcelona and went to the game at the Olympic Stadium on Saturday night. It's a beautiful stadium but not ideal for soccer...
Apple: still here after 10 years. Orange: folded after 3 years.
OK, I said this before and got slagged for it a little bit. Been following Wolyniec since Silver Lake, then Fordham, then the Brooklyn Knights,...
Brownswan, your theory is not implausible, at least to me. There are several ways to try to make money out of soccer, and the summer super-tour...
The Metropolitan Oval seats about 800 and has locker rooms with showers. The Brooklyn Knights of the PDL play there. It has very good lights for...
Here in New York we don't see English Div. 1 matches, but we do see plenty of EPL and, for some reason, the Scottish League. I don't think MLS...
