FC Dallas signs a striker

Seriously? That's not a name for a football club, it's more like a brokerage firm.

 

Are we sure is not from Admiral Brown?

 

Same guy, different club. William Brown was apparently an Irish-born officer who was Argentina's first admiral, and won several naval battles for Argentina in their war of independence.

Just went to Wikipedia and found that a bunch of stuff in Argentina is named for him, including:

• Four different football clubs: Club Atlético Almirante Brown located in the town of Arrecifes,[29] Club Almirante Brown located in Isidro Casanova,[30] Brown Athletic Club from Adrogué,[31] and Puerto Madryn-based Guillermo Brown.

Sorry if this is boring any of you, but I love learning about this kind of stuff. Thanks FC Dallas!

 

That can get confusing if they do bring back the Argentina FA Cup.

 

I wonder if they have Admiral derbies.

 

A guy from the 2nd division who played in the 3rd division and was a sub in 1st division.. Won't hold my breath.

 

Does everyone fear us now?

 

NFL is shaking in their boots as we speak..

 

Well the Rapids aren't going to make the playoffs this year, so you have a chance.

 

Are you kidding me? This kid has a horrible strike rate and this is one of the most pathetic "hilite" films I have ever seen. He plays like a slower version of Abe Thompson and has a comparable goal-scoring record to Scott Sealy. None of the goals scored in the film show any real degree of skill and the few instances where he had a chance to display skill, he got stoned big time. HGS has hit a new low with this one. What a cheap-ass, freaking joke!

 

I will counter the bolded part and say HSG just made Higuain the most expensive player in Crew history like 2 weeks ago. Just saying.

 

But...but...

He's from Argentina! There's a thread in N&A about him! He has to be good!
