Boy today has been a bit busy huh? Thankfully being Friday the week is over and its time once again for some weekend soccer.

KC enters the match on a bit of a rough patch while the Crew continue to look like they will hold steady at the…[continue reading]

In one day the Houston Dynamo cut loose a Designated Player that bombed and probably more importantly saw one of the league’s best assistant coaches step down for personal reasons. Yes Dynamo fans I believe you are entering a slight rebuilding phase now. Luis Angel Landin, signed last August as Houston’s first DP, was released Tuesday…[continue reading]
