Just when you think the MLS Discipline Committee isn’t going to strike this week, the hammer comes down and comes down hard. MLS DC has suspended FC Dallas midfielder Brek Shea for three games and fined him an undisclosed amount for deliberately kicking the ball at an assistant referee in the 24th minute of the game…[continue reading]

I forget to pimp out my work at other outlets but this one seems like a really good discussion piece considering the fact that when the “Young DP” rule came out, the league made it sound like Americans wouldn’t be eligible for it. Very, very interesting details dropped today (thanks to ESPN Insider Brent Latham).

What else can you say about the upcoming weekend in Major League Soccer? It’s damn full. Nine matches, eight of them on Saturday. Tons of interesting matchups across the board that should have everyone’s attention. This could be the start of where we begin to see how teams will go for the rest of the…[continue reading]

The weekend is finally here, though I’ll be honest this week flew by for me. Major League Soccer has a full slate of games this weekend with seven on Saturday and two on Sunday. Only the Columbus Crew are off this weekend (just something we’ll be living with this season due to the unbalanced schedule).…[continue reading]

I don’t really know a lot about those things.I don’t think it really surprises anyone because he is such a good player. I’m sure there are other players on our team that those type of conversations occur. Right now, Brek is part of FC Dallas. We’re looking for Brek to be a continuing part of FC Dallas, so for us to talk about transfers, it’s really a waste of conversation.~ Schellas Hyndman, FC Dallas Manager
I saw this quote over on Buzz’s site (3rdDegree.net) about the whole Brek Shea rumor situation. I’m like most down here in Dallas that cover the team, you know Shea will get sold eventually to a club overseas but it won’t be anytime in the immediate future. Yes, he’s doing well on the National team…[continue reading]

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]
