While the official league stance is still “we’re reviewing our options” when it comes to the SuperLiga tournament. Yesterday’s schedule release should show that the tournament could definitely be on it’s way out. Look at the schedules of the potential participating clubs for this season. The Columbus Crew, the New York Red Bulls, the San…[continue reading]

If you believe Columbus Technical Director Brian Bliss, it could be true. #Crew96 TD Brian Bliss said he is doubtful the SuperLiga tournament will be played this season. Crew might sked some summer friendlies. That is news a lot of MLS fans will be happy to hear. Some will be upset their clubs won’t be…[continue reading]

So I caught some flack for my issues towards SuperLiga yesterday. I figured I would but I still stand by my comments the the tournament is more of a waste than good. Today I saw a post on the US Soccer Examiner’s site with Don Garber talking about re-working the club’s busy schedules. Don Garber…[continue reading]

I may get some negative comments from folks in New England and possibly down in Houston but across the board most folks will likely agree with the following: its time to end SuperLiga once and for all. We know the tournament is just a cash grab for SUM, Major League Soccer and USSF’s marketing arm.…[continue reading]

The Major League Soccer All-Star break is next week and so the midway point of the season is more or less finally here. Only a couple teams have yet to play half of their season slate while the rest of the league is already in the second half of their season. I felt it was…[continue reading]

In case you didn’t know the mid-summer SUM tournament SuperLiga kicks off tomorrow. Its the same setup as before, four MLS teams and four Mexican teams. The Chicago Fire, Houston Dynamo, New England Revolution and Chivas USA all will compete against Mexico’s Pachuca, Monarcas Morelia, Pumas UNAL and Puebla. Again the question comes out, does anyone…[continue reading]

A brief glimpse at this summer’s SuperLiga tournament between four MLS clubs and four Mexican first division clubs was announced today. While we don’t know the four clubs from Mexico we do know that the Houston Dynamo, the Chicago Fire, the New England Revolution and Chivas USA will represent MLS. I’ll hold back on my…[continue reading]

Woo, made it to day two with this new concept or idea rather. I know I’ve been a bit quiet today with post, blame the load of actual paying work that I have at the office for that. We also have a couple MLS teams in action tonight, two facing very important matches, and the…[continue reading]

Yeah, another anti-SuperLiga post coming up right here. While I won’t complain about the clubs involved this time around or the lack of playing any of these games in Mexico, I will harp a little on how the first round went this year. Thanks for Daune Rollins for posting this one on his super-Canadian soccer…[continue reading]

Going back to Friday’s thoughts about the 2009 edition of SuperLiga, I realized that maybe one thing to help improve the tournament’s ability to reach people may be to do what happened in St. Louis this past weekend. For those who don’t know the city of St. Louis hosted an opening round game for Kansas…[continue reading]
