I have to say I’m a little shocked to hear that the Portland Timbers will have a new logo come next year when they enter Major League Soccer. There’s something nice about the current logo that I just hate to see them ago away from here. Maybe I’m wrong and the new logo which will…[continue reading]

We have two games tonight on a week where things seem a little bit lighter (only five games this weekend). Things get started tonight with two games on the menu, one of those on national TV (ESPN2). Three of the four clubs in action tonight are in the top part of the standings with the…[continue reading]

Something that too far too long finally came to an end yesterday. The Houston Dynamo were finally able to re-sign striker Joseph Ngwenya after FIFA issued a new international transfer certificate.

A handfull or so of US players are in that mix this time around and one of those guys is DeMarcus Beasley. DMB…[continue reading]

This post over at the 24th Minute got me thinking. The news yesterday broke about Toronto FC rookie defender Zach Herold retiring. Due to some issues that were out of my hand I didn’t get around to talking about it until today. For those who aren’t aware Herold was drafted in the second round by…[continue reading]
