Hate to say it but no evening links and thoughts tonight. Just too busy with work and the Dallas game tonight to put in a real effort for this. I should be back tomorrow with another ELT. Enjoy the soccer night of MLS and CCL games!

Its kind of weird to see the Cotton Bowl hosting MLS once again but tonight it happens. The New England Revolution travel to Dallas to play part of a double header that will pretty much only boost Dallas’ dreadful season attendance figures. New England comes into town on a fairly hot streak despite the fact…[continue reading]

The Toronto city council voted unanimously to approve the placement of grass at BMO Field in a vote held on earlier today.

Mexican federation President Decio de Maria basically said the money wasn’t there for the country to do a good enough bid right now. First of all the…[continue reading]

As mentioned yesterday the playoff race has gotten pretty clear for me. Aside from two or three clubs I pretty much have a good understanding of who will be in the second season and who will not. The rankings sort of reflect that this week and there was some movement across the board. First up…[continue reading]

Every once in a while people I usually disagree with get something right. I’m sure it happens with some of you where you hardly ever agree with me but I write something that is absolute truth for once. I know, it happens both ways. Anyways today was just that as Greg Lalas posted a story…[continue reading]

Just as the playoff race gets hot, the goals of the week get hotter. Something about a playoff race that makes the goals just a little bit better if you ask me. Order of goals: Jamie Moreno, Ramon Sanchez, Ryan Johnson, Sacha Kljestan, Juan Pablo Angel, Dwayne De Rosario, Chad Barret, Brian McBride, Jeff Cunningham,…[continue reading]
