    Real and Barca are through in the CL and their battle for first in La Liga is going to be great. Actually their battle for all silverware is going to be great. Both Messi and Cristiano have been outstanding.   All kudos to Levante for what…

    Chelsea has a lot of work left to do in the CL, with tough matches still left in order to qualify. Already 3 losses in the EPL. At least Abram is getting to watch exciting football, just like he wanted.   Arsenal also have work left to do in…

    The Cassano incident is mind blogging. It just go to show you, you never know. Not to be cynical, but I wonder what else will come out due to the cause.   Big win for Inter in the CL, but they still have a lot left to do in league play.…

    I know that I haven't been posting enough. The Champions and Europa leagues have been great.   Some thoughts: Man United have put themselves in a tricky spot. They can ill afford any slip ups and it worries me that it will effect league…

    I saw an interview where Freddy Adu spoke about Benfica. He mentioned how he didn't realize how big a deal Benfica was. He went on to say how he had multiple managers for the limited time he was there. Also how one of them preferred…

    I know what you mean. I bled through funds for over a year. It's amazing but I just started a new opportunity where I took an 82% pay cut. Incredible.  Granted I'm hoping that it it becomes something much more.

    I want to keep it going. Just waiting for a little cash to roll in. I'm changing jobs so right now I'm flat broke, but as of Monday I will be working again, so yes, I plan to keep this place rolling. :) Hopefully I timed it right.

    I believe the OTW yearly bill is due soon, if I miss it by a couple days, apologies if anything goes down for a little while.

    You're always going to get alot of opposition fans at USMNT games in the NY metro area because it is so diverse, too diverse even. People trek to Jets / Giants games because 1) they care alot 2) both those teams used to play in NYC and built up…

    I totally agree that the mls should not be adding anymore teams. The money/revenue just isn't there.

    I get that NJ is not NY, but people show in droves  to see football teams in Jersey, just not real football. The point remains the same. Are you boys telling me if they build a stadium next to the Mets new place people will show up? I doubt it.…

    Rafa also had a go at Fergie. He said mind games don't work (LMAO) and that Fergie is a success because United has money. Silly silly Rafa.

    Rafa has been in rare form lately. He had come out a while back stating that he could see himself back at Inter. Then just recently he went off on Moratti on how he was the culprit. How he never got full support from up top. Also blamed Moratti for…

    Harrison is not NYC. The location for the Red Bulls is actually a very good one. Easy access from train or path. NJ is a great soccer state, so people could go from all over.   The place the Cosmos should play is Queens. Queens was and still is…

    MLS Preview 5-18/5-22

    Canadian and LA derby's this week. Oh my. These mid-week matches sneak up on me, so I didn't get as in depth as usual, but none the less, here are my predictions on what to watch, or not watch, this week in MLS...

    MLS Preview 5-11/5-15 (Seattle v Portland)

    This week the MLS gives us the continuance of something special, the Seattle Sounders and Portland Timbers rivalry. If you're not excited, you don't have a pulse.

     

    I wrote out my weekly MLS preview and predictions this past monday, but failed to post it until today, meaning 3 of the matches already happened wednesday. I know I got one right, one wrong, and the other I'm not even sure, so I will drop the preview of those matches and just tell you what I had…

    MLS PREVIEW 5-4/5-7 "LA v NY"

    After my best week in predictions, I'm hoping I have turned the corner, but MLS is a fickle mistress, and this week will be very difficult to predict. Which I assume is what makes it enjoyable. Just a reminder, the MLS, unlike Europe, gives results in a Win - Loss - Draw format, as opposed to W-D-L. Let's get stuck in.

    MLS Preview 4-29/5-1

    After a horrid week of predictions and a soul crushing defeat for RSL in the CONCACAF Champions League Final, I'm hoping the bad vibes are now gone, and this week I pick myself back up.

     

    4-29-11

    Houston Dynamo (2-1-3) v DC United (2-3-1): FSC's friday night contribution is a clash of former powers in the MLS looking to get back to the glory. Houston has some old legs on talented veterans and some young…

    OTW: MLS Preview 4-21/4-23

    On the heels of Real Salt Lake's stunning draw with Monterrey in Monterrey, the time to get stuck in with the MLS is now. MLS was wise enough to give RSL a break this week to rest up for the CONCACAF Champions League Final, but there are some other tasty match ups just waiting to entertain you.
