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. The Colorado Rapids, the Columbus Crew, FC Dallas and Sporting Kansas City all have holes in their jerseys – well metaphorically…[continue reading]

My pal Daniel over at BigDSoccer.com just posted this photo on his twitter feed.

Two games tonight, with one just about underway in New York, and plenty more tomorrow and Sunday. Nearly every game has playoff implications surrounding them. I’d…[continue reading]

Real Salt Lake announced today that they have agreed to extend their current jersey sponsorship with energy drink company Xango for another three years to 2013. What’s more interesting to some may be the new look…[continue reading]

The Colorado Rapids put up a gallery of their new kits today. Apparently they are having a jersey sale too for those who want their Rapids gear for 2009.
