The end of season awards can always be tricky to gage, especially going into the final two weeks of the season. But I’d like to think the Newcomer of the Year award is really down to just a couple of guys for once. The league brought in a slew of quality players this year and…[continue reading]

I’ll keep my intro short this week as I have some things to get to today. We have one more playoff spot left to get in MLS and its down to Colorado and Kansas City for that spot. Same thing goes with my rankings this week as Colorado is sitting in the eighth spot with…[continue reading]

What can I say I’ve been a bad US Men’s National team fan lately. I haven’t really taken the time to discuss the recent friendlies and I’ll be brutally honest I didn’t watch the Poland game over the weekend nor will I probably watch the Colombia game tomorrow. In a way I am just struggling…[continue reading]

The MLS Playoff picture is extremely clear now and only one more spot is open. All the Colorado Rapids need to do to earn that spot is just grab one single point in their final two games or hope that the Kansas City Wizards fail to get nine points in their final three. In all…[continue reading]

Week 28 is in the books and while I’ll review/recap/etc. it here later on today I’ve posted the highlights of this week’s action for all to see. (Thanks as always to GuilhermeSilveira06) US Open Cup Final: Seattle Sounders FC 2 – 1 Columbus Crew LA Galaxy 1 – 0 Philadelphia Union Chicago Fire 2 –…[continue reading]

Only Kansas City can control what…[continue reading]

I’ve always had a slight issue with one post season award that Major League Soccer hands out. The Comeback Player of the Year. In some years the CPY is truly someone that had a great year after coming back from a big injury. Look no further to 2008′s CPY Kenny Cooper. It was a no brainer…[continue reading]

This may be a quick and dirty preview on my part, plus fellow WVH writer Kevin Kinkead did a good enough job the other day talking about tonight’s game between the LA Galaxy and the Philadelphia Union. Today has been a fairly hectic day around these parts for me so that’s why the quick and…[continue reading]

I love the hype Portland is doing for next year. First the billboard in Seattle and now it looks like the commercials are starting to roll out. Quality stuff too.

I said earlier in the week I wanted to touch on this year’s MVP race. Well today looked like a good one to do it seeing as how I don’t care about Liverpool’s sale to John Henry and company and I feel a bit lazy to talk about the USOC Final from last night. What…[continue reading]
