We knew going into 2009 that the calendar for DC United could be a fairly packed one. Possibly Champions League matches, US Open Cup title to defend, summer friendlies, and of course the regular season slate. It turned out to be just the case as DC United played a schedule so packed this year it…[continue reading]

Week 18 in Major League Soccer has already gotten off to a bang. Last night’s 3-1 thrashing in Giant’s Stadium by LA over New York probably set the tone for what this weekend should be like. The tone was set early and often by LA with Landon Donovan really showing just how good he can…[continue reading]

Time once again for the goals of the week. Not as many MLS games this week to pick goals from but there were still plenty of quality goals out there this weekend to view. Order of goals: Omar Cummings, Brian Ching, Eric Avila, Fredy Montero, Chirs Pontius, Osvaldo Alonso, Nate Jaqua, Fredy Montero, and Christian…[continue reading]

EDIT: Currently experiencing some issues with this video…check back later to see if it is work! Sorry for the hassle! A decent amount of goals this week. I’ve once again put together the usual list of my favorites. I may have missed a couple others though but these are the ones I thought were the…[continue reading]

I won’t lie, last night’s game between Chicago and Chivas put a sour taste in my mouth for this weekend. The game itself was entertaining but the officiating was lacking in quality as we’ve all seen by now. Hopefully this weekend won’t be filled with yellow and red cards or lots of questionable PK calls.…[continue reading]

So far the 2009 season has been a lot different than most would expect. Two western teams headline the standings with perfect records, while a couple eastern clubs aren’t far off the pace. Judging by this weekend’s schedule this could be a good for some struggling clubs to get on the board here this season.…[continue reading]

I know I have been a little delayed in getting this out but I think it actually worked out fine getting the season predictions out on the week of the new season. Hard to believe that we are just days away from the first kick of the new year up in Seattle. Time now for…[continue reading]

Time to dive back into the season previews once more today with DC United. The Black-and-Red failed to live up to expectations last season. They got rid of nearly every player they brought in last year and even added an old face or two to the mix. Time now to see if they can get…[continue reading]

And that didn’t take long at all. The mega-deal (again) involving Christian Gomez is complete. United acquired Gomez, goalkeeper Mike Graczyk, an international roster spot and salary cap considerations (Rapids will pick up some of Gomez’s salary this year) and traded the Rapids a package that included its own Designated Player slot, Ivan Guerrero and…[continue reading]
