    Anyone know who the mystery trialist was yesterday at training?
    SECRET TRIALIST: An unidentified player trained with Real Salt Lake on Wednesday at Xango Field in Lehi. The team declined to reveal the name of the player, as it plans on filing a discovering claim with the league on the player and it doesn't want other teams in the league learning who he is.
    I have a strong suspicion... but before going out on a limb it would be nice if someone could--at a minimum--confirm his race/ethnicity/position.

    Paul Broome. His stint as defensive savior in 2005 stunk, so he's coming back as a forward this time.

    no i know who it is....
    Paolo maldini!
    god i wish
    No matter what team you supporter in europe, you have to admit this guy is probably one of the greatest of all time. Likely the best center back of all time. The guy started his career before i was born at Milan... not too shabby

    We should trade Movsisyan for Justin Braun.

    Local kid, roughly same size, maybe not as fast, but tends to finish his chances.

    No! Paul IS something to get excited about, and WILL transform our season for the magical championship run. Without Futhi, we lacked destiny until Paul the Trialist came our way.

    Trialist Paul, Lead Us!

    (I intend to introduce a new potential Trialist Paul every so often - this is a striker named Paul McDowell who, with a sterotypical Scottish last name, could be a friend of Ian's.)

    Didn't he have a bit part in Monty Python and the Holy Grail? Perhaps I'm confusing him with Roger the Shrubber.

    You know what, he may very well be in this shot, but a bit dirty so we can't recognize him:

    isnt ian's middle name paul?
    So could this just be a practical joke as Joy returned to practice just barely and may be considered a "trialist" because he has been gone so long

    "I think he said 'Blessed are the cheesemakers'." Or the goalscorers, in RSL's case. At any rate, back to your regularly scheduled discussion of Paul the Trialist.

    The only Paul McDowell I could find, was an Ulster man who plays/ed for Bangor FC.

    That's the guy! But since I just picked him randomly, there isn't too much to see there. :)

    Absolutely something like that since, unlike Paul of Tarsus, Paul the Trialist quotes his scripture from the LOL Cat Bible:

    Matthew 5:9 Cheezburgrz 4 teh kittehs dat sez shhhhh!, Ceiling Cat is liek "u mai kittehs."

    Paul the Trialist was formerly with the Peoples Front of Judea, but now has joined the Judean Peoples Front (splitters!)

    New guess: 38 year old former Canadian NT striker Paul Peschisolido leaves his Ireland League 2 coaching job, comes out of playing retirement, trials with RSL, and leads us to glory:
