Scrimmages[R]

I have four season tickets here... so we have at least four.

 

bump...

game should be over.....

wonder what the score was

 

And which team Eddie Gaven played on.

And how many did Adu put past Timmy.




Adding in mine, the Metros have sold at least 6 season tickets.

 

The U-17's played the Fire again today. Fire won, 2-0. Metros play them Saturday.

 

metros played today, not the fire...

and add 9 tix from here.

 

4-0 to the Metro.

Nice to see that Mario scored off of a free kick. It's good to have someone else on the team that can take these if Mathis isn't available.

I thought it was a little strange that Kenny Arena was on the "A" team while Jeff Moore was delegated to the "B" team. But it's probably too early to read anything into this.

Why isn't Musa Shannon listed on that preseason roster? Has he left camp?

 

Clark, Gaven, and Magee are part of the team even though they aren't listed on that roster. They are training with US youth teams.

We can have 18 Rostered players + 6 P40/Developmental players.

 

the question im about to ask should be asked in another thread, but then some morons would start callin me racist for no reason again....

which 3-5 players do you think the metros are gonna cut, keep in mind that new signings can still come in....

my picks are...

Chris Sanje
Troy Cowell
Carson Fagan
Joaquin Alvarez

 

I've heard nice reports about Alvarez in camp (wouldn't it be nice to have a compotent Alvarez for once???); regardless, he's young enough to be given a developmental tag. Also, if Rosas and Sheppard are both signed, they will count against the cap but not the roster, giving us more depth. We could be looking at an expanded roster for Metro making full use of all slots.

Also, wasn't Shannon always a locker room cancer for every team he played for? His attitude might be a little too much for Bradley.

 

One would guess that Sanje and Alvarez might bounce back to Metros Black, from whence they came.

 

I don't think BrooklynGladiator likes Metro Black for some reason.
