Who says? Is the Fire gona start completely over? Haha seems like they don't have many people left. I'm just over looking a lot tho, but they are losing a lot of key guys.(don't get on me even just cuz hes been injuried, he is a key player)
Armas will be ready (he was already doing non-contact stuff at the end of the season, and will be training with the Nats in Florida), and if you're making the claim that the core of the team has been Hristo Stoitchkov, Dema Kovalenko and Josh Wolff, I want some of what you're smoking. Yeah, they're all good players, but not the core by any stretch of the imagination. Now, if Nowak retires, then we can talk. Later, COZ
The Wolff to KC rumor has been floating around for a while now. If Wolff leaves Chicago, he's coming to KC... it won't be NY or DC.
I'm sure Coz has a gig tonight. Alright, we suck now. Make sure your boys wear hard hats in Naperville next season.
We've got a big freakin' hole in the middle of our plastic field? Yeah, mea culpa, I was wrong on this one. That said, the guy who initially threw out the Nowak to New England rumor on the Revs board didn't make it sound all that convincing, and he had elaborated by saying it would be for a conditional draft pick in 2004, I would have believed it even less. And I'm still not entirely worried. Nowak was certainly the heart of Bradley's offense, but we're not Bradley's team anymore, and I'll still stand by the rest of the lineup any day of the week. Even without Josh Wolff. Of course, there may be more to this story than we know right now, if you're keeping an eye on the rumors. And no offense, MetrosSoccaFan10, but you're not first with that particular tidbit. It's been circulating a lot this week. Later, COZ
Well, I guarantee you it doesn't happen. Guaranteed. Josh Wolff to KC, 3rd draft pick to Chicago. No doubt about it. And don't bother asking me my sources, just tune in to channelzonline.org mondays at 6.
How long do you think Josh will last this season? I mean, he's a great player, but he's cursed with injuries.
official? http://www.ussocceruk.com/index.php according to chris bergin wolff "was also traded, and heads to Kansas City in return for a their top SuperDraft pick (third overall), in a deal that is currently awaiting an official announcement."
Reading the write-ups on this trade, it seems like Wolff was desparate to get out of Chicago. Other than the plastic grass, Why?
The only thing that i can think of is that it was because of the plastic grass. Playing on turf is not good for the injury prone players as it substantially increases your likelihood of injury. With regards to the trade though, why trade Nowak though, if you have gotten rid of Wolff? In other words, the Wolff trade alone would have made them cap compliant. Why trade Wolff and Nowak?
