With only a few weeks left in the season the awards race in Major League Soccer is pretty dang hot. The MVP race alone is very interesting this season. In my book if I had to vote today for the top three in the MVP race would be fairly simple but there are a few…[continue reading]

Ah, that sound you may here is the sound of a full Major League Soccer slate this weekend. All 18 MLS clubs are involved in Week 26 action with eight of the games being Saturday evening. Most clubs had last weekend off and you can bet they are all geared up for the big playoff…[continue reading]

In a way, the future is really now. The Mexico friendly for the US National Team a few weeks ago was merely a money grab for the parties involved. Sure it was Jurgen Klinsmann’s first match with the US but he barely got anytime to really build the team he wanted before hand. This time…[continue reading]
