Today has been a busy day of meetings and what not for me at the office so posting here has taken a back seat yet again. I did want to pump out a quick thought or two on tonight’s MLS game between the Chicago Fire and the New England Revolution. For the Fire it will…[continue reading]

It seems like lately all the rage is not just signing a Designated Player but signing something a little more long term for the clubs in Major League Soccer. Academy signings are happening left and right these days and can we even say its a bad thing? I don’t think so. Yesterday the Colorado Rapids…[continue reading]

The San Jose Earthquakes may be one of the few clubs left that are late to the Designated Player party but today they join the club when they announced the signing of midfielder Geovanni. The Quakes had hyped up the signing over the weekend and even more so into today with different twitter messages and…[continue reading]

The US put out a typical squad, one that was mostly there at the World Cup a couple months ago and one that could very well be the last that Bob Bradley puts…[continue reading]

In probably what has become the worst kept coaching secret in Major League Soccer is about to come true tomorrow. The Portland Timbers are se to hire former Houston Dynamo assistant John Spencer as the club’s first MLS head coach. Spencer’s name has been linked with the job since last year when he met with…[continue reading]

I won’t lie to ya, today has snuck up on me here. I nearly forgot today was the day the US hosted Brazil at the New Meadowlands Stadium. I’ll spare you the preview as really its a worthless thing to do since both teams are coming off rather different disappointments from the World Cup and…[continue reading]

Week 19 served up some very interesting matchups and boy did they not disappoint one bit. Nearly every club…[continue reading]
