And that is why the Fire are totally irrelevant in the Chicago marketplace.
I was wondering that as well. Shakespeare - yes. Faulkner - yes. But Gilbert and Sullivan? What am I missing?
I hate to play the game of "what if", but Wondo had one job, and that was it. He did have options - shoot it low (maybe hitting the keeper), tap...
Easy - they should move MLS Cup to when the ASG is, and move the ASG to when MLS Cup is. All they need is a few of these:...
I approve this message!
First, I miss Landon Donovan. Second, as for Wondo, how come he stands so tall in MLS yet absolutely stinks up the place on the national team?...
Holy crap - There is an Iron81 sighting in the comments section of that article. Man, I can't decide whether his comments are meant to be...
You're talking about the Mr. Bean goal celebration, aren't you?
I was not.
Seriously. I mean, c'mon people, put yourself in their shoes. If I moved to any other country, and they played the US, I would root for the US...

Yeah - compare that to the Chicago Fire. We all know that the once proud franchise has sunk into almost total irrelevance around Chicago. My...
Well, not only that, but if you are a player and somehow you are convinced that playing shitty the last few months of a season means you are going...
Well that was unnecessarily snarky...
This is the second time in two days that I have seen a headline phrased in this way - the first was yesterday on Yahoo News, and now this. Not...
Yeah, I have to agree with Baked here. Turf is tough. The difference between good turf and a well-maintained grass field is night and day. Turf...
I get it!
Absolutely true, but I will say that Pro/Rel and playoffs are not mutually exclusive. Having said that, however, I see no need for it, and it...
I had to post just to see when my join date was... Edit: Holy crap, I've been around way too long...
How about what I consider a more important question, which is how does it impact St. Louis? There is now a large empty football stadium in St....
Actually don't know this. Because it was open 7 hours a day, uh, 11 days a week? No, that's probably not it. Ok, I give up.
