Front page of the Globe Sports Section, above the fold! View from the top, Liverpool to Revolution, Nicol has witnessed it all By Frank Dell'Apa, Globe Staff Rivalry has heated up, Revolution have a score to settle By Frank Dell'Apa, Globe Staff Trading places works out well Revolution Notebook/by Gus Martins, Boston Herald Kante puts Revs in position to win by Gus Martins, Boston Herald
According to the Globe story, the Fire will use a 3-6-2 alignment. Does this mean they got a special dispensation from the league to use 12 players?
Kante: "If I match up against (Chicago's) Ante Razov, then I have to play him a bit more physically. Not kicking him because I'm not that kind of player. " No, kick him ...hard!!
Wonderful article on Stevie Nicks in today's Globe. Take a read, if this guy doesn't desreve to be permanent then the upper Revs management, including the owners, are daft. Sign him up now. JIM DOW
'Revs Will Be Feeling The Pressure' Column by Don Cuddy http://www.s-t.com/daily/09-02/09-26-02/b01sp097.htm FWIW, Steve Nicol, Matt Driver and John Murphy deserve their own designated parking spaces, a la Patriots Tom Brady, David Patten, Mike Compton, et al, in front of Gillette Stadium's main entrance.
i agree, kick him once for me too! yeah, it'll be interesting to see how razov retaliates when he can't resort to hair pulling. he'll just have to keep it on a trash talking level..."oh yeah daouda, well that outfit just makes you look...well...fat. there i've said it!"
'Fire Opens Postseason In Tough Spot' by Len Ziehm - Chicago Sun Times http://www.suntimes.com/output/fire/cst-spt-fire26.html Those wankers at the Chicago Tribune didn't even have a story or advance. ----------------------------------------- No need for Kante to kick Razov in the shins. Just apply the Vulcan grip on his right shoulder - that should do the trick.
Changing Places? by Mike Marshall Overheard at practice: Twellman's new nickname is "Franchise" "Would you like Franchise with that, Mr. Thornton?" I wonder how Captain Franchino feels about this one...
Tony: I heard Harris and Brown call him that and he changed color four times. I asked him about his new nickname, Franchise. "That's the worst thing anyone's ever called me," Twellman said. While it may be true, suffice it to say, he hates it.
Dan: That's when nicknames stick, if people get a reaction out of you - so I expect he'll be hearing that one for a while. Let's hope he lives up to it, with no sophomore jinx.
