Fallas just posted that JN almost got signed last Monday..interesting...why would JN be such a hard a$$...?
Re: Fallas just posted.... Why has he spent the last two seasons drifting around Europe? At this point, I would be surprised the Dynamo would even talk to him.
Re: Fallas just posted.... why should we care....Ching, Landin, Weaver, Oduro, Abe. Half of them have proved they can score. One is a DP and should start scoring. the other two don't take up a lot of money. Joe was a flash in the pan. Great for 2007. But he will never have that kind of year again with any team anywhere on this planet.
Re: Fallas just posted.... My guess is that if Ngwenya had signed, we'd have Ching, Landin, Weaver, Oduro, and Ngwenya right now and more allocation money from KC (or maybe Toronto). I'd rather have that but it's not the end of the world that we don't.
Re: Fallas just posted.... I agree with that but Oduro will continue to get time because he's a yes guy-doesn't make waves, which it appears more and more what Kei was doing. I am not saying Joe wasn't a team guy, but all these botched negotiations make me think he's more in it for himself than playing for us. If his skill was that good why couldn't he stick anywhere in Europe? Look at the list of Yanks that can stick at lower clubs over there.
Re: Fallas just posted.... To me the really interesting thing is that they traded Kamara even after the intended deal fell through. This seems to say that Dom and Kamara were having a lot bigger problems than most of us have speculated on. We knew there was a problem. But trading the guy basically (all due respect Abe Thompson) for nothing seems pretty intense.
Im done with this guy. He either thinks he is much better than he really is or doesnt respect our franchise like he should.
I am very disappointed in this development, or lack of development. Who is going to shoot a 3mph PK at Calero's chest at 1:30am now?
I think Joe and Kei loved playing for the Dynamo but just wanted to get paid more. Their relationship with Dom may not have been one of great affection and loyalty and that may have played a role in why they were reluctant to agree to lower salaries. You wonder what kind of shape Joe is in right now anyway.
