Many clubs are a few weeks into their pre-seasons and now that the international transfer window has shut, it is a good time to look at how each MLS side has done so far this winter. (Note: the MLS window doesn’t close until April, which means players who failed to land new jobs in Europe…[continue reading]
When the Chicago Fire announced Quaker Oats as their new jersey sponsor earlier this week (I swear that one is growing on me by the day), the news left four clubs without a sponsor.

So I went three for four in the semifinals with my picks. Real Salt Lake knocked out Seattle in what was a very entertaining series. The other three were good as well, but the conference finals should be very good to watch. We’re down to three more games this season – the Conference finals on…[continue reading]
Here is a little story I wrote for SBNation.com earlier today. Tomorrow’s Sporting KC-Philadelphia game has so many meanings behind it but for me the defense is the biggest key for both club’s success. This game has the makings of being totally open in the offense if the defenses fail to show up.
My pal Daniel over at BigDSoccer.com just posted this photo on his twitter feed. Valencia of La Liga in Spain did this clever jersey sponsor idea of promoting their brand online instead of having a big time sponsor.
