    "PEQUANNOCK - Mounir Badaan, developer of the proposed MetroStars soccer complex, is so confident work will begin this summer, he's held a news conference saying as much.

    But James Codiroli, whose back yard borders the project, says not so fast.

    Codiroli, of Madison Street, filed suit in state Superior Court this month claiming there were irregularities in Planning Board procedures when the board approved the application for the 42-acre site at Alexander Avenue and Route 23 south"
    .......

    You can see where this is going...Very good article on the practice fields project issue, which (at best) would be ready for use in October next year..Let's hope so.....

    "A look at the numbers says it all. The Metros finished 7-25, a number made worse considering they began 3-1. The summer of '99 was worst of all, with the team losing 12 straight and 18 of 19. The only win during that span was a victory against Tampa Bay under the league's old shootout tie-breaking format"....

    It's an article on the very ugly 1999 season, which we would all like to forget, but which Ives in his wisdom ;) (just kidding, I usually love his articles) reminds us of....He does a good chronicle of everything/everyone (coaches, front office, players) involved in that nefarious year.....From the article, I just found out we could have had Bradley as coach in 98...Doh!
