For most people Chad Marshall was the best defender in the league this year. I may have not voted for the guy but I can’t argue that fact that he was so dominate this year for Columbus. He’s big, physical and a guy that should get looked at for minutes by the US National Team.…[continue reading]

Sure Halloween was last week but some photos surfaced earlier from Chicago Fire MVP candidate Cuauhtemoc Blanco’s night out with a few of his teammates. Thanks to the Center Holds It for the shots. Anyone figure out what Blanco is? Zoro maybe? A ninja? I dunno, either way his expressions are priceless and the ladies…[continue reading]

A bit of a shock to some surrounding the club but today we’ve learned that DC manager Tom Soehn will return in 2009 as the club’s manager. Steven Goff is reporting that his sources have learned that the club is going to exercise his option for next season. I felt Soehn was as good as…[continue reading]

Its been a bit of a slow news week and sometimes that happens during the playoffs. I’ve been kind of waiting around to get to this discussion or at least open it up a bit. I am a big fan of the college draft in MLS, even though I do believe it isn’t producing nearly…[continue reading]

GK: William Hesmer – Columbus DEF: Gonzalo Segares – Chicago DEF: Bobby Boswell – Houston DEF: Chad Marshall – Columbus MID: Guillermo Barros…[continue reading]

The first leg of the opening playoff round this past weekend was, well, a dud in some books. Three draws and one lone win by Real Salt Lake on a last second goal. Attendance was weak and at times so was the defense late in games as two clubs scored late goals to tie things…[continue reading]

Usually I don’t post much on the weekends because I want to take all the games in that I can but after last night’s RSL-Chivas game I felt like I had to share the game-winner by Yura Movsisyan. Could that be the goal that lift’s RSL to a win in this series? It just may.
