Boy that didn’t last long. As the financial issues continue to mount in St. Louis for Jeff Cooper’s club some players are already leaving the club including longtime MLS veteran Steve Ralston. Reports this morning say Ralston is now headed back to MLS to play with the New England Revolution once again. “It seems like…[continue reading]

I waited a while today to get to this news that most of you have already seen. AC St. Louis in the USSF’s Division II league announced it’s first big signing today in hometown boy Steve Ralston. Big news in some ways and in others, eh, not so much. First of all Ralston was one…[continue reading]

Yesterday was full of news and one bit of news that came down was surely more surprising than others. A little tweet on Twitter that said something along the lines of “Steve Ralston will not be returning to the Revs this year.” Of course I am paraphrasing that quote from Boston reporter Kyle McCarthy.

Just as promised, even if it is a day behind normal schedule here. Plenty of solid goals this past week in Major League Soccer. I particularly love some of the combinations in plays like the Columbus game between Jason Garey and Steven Lenhart. By the way, what was with Rob Stone’s Max Bretos call on…[continue reading]

Hard to believe we are nearly a third of the way through things here already this season. For some clubs this will be the one-thirds mark of the season. Others are still catching up in the played games department, that’s what you get when you have an unbalanced schedule. Anyways, another load of games this…[continue reading]

Lots of good action this past week in Major League Soccer from Real Salt Lake’s Thursday big win over the Columbus Crew to Seattle’s big road victory in Toronto. With seven games over the weekend we are now starting to see a bunch of different things this season. Some are more clear than others but…[continue reading]

ast year the New England Revolution were the hot club from May to August. Shortly after winning their first SuperLiga title many thought the Revs were going to be unstoppable and win the MLS Cup. Things didn’t turn out that way as the Revs collapsed in the final months of the season and barely looked…[continue reading]
