I’ve just been rendered obsolete…
By: jon |Yep. Just as happened to Laurie, the team I cover has decided to enter the world of blogging, with all the advantages of actually being employed by the team you cover. Here’s the link. I won’t be sad if you leave me for the new guy in town. I’ll still be [...]
Game Preview #1: DC United at KC Wizards
By: jon |That’s right ladies and gentlemen. The MLS season officially starts a little more than 24 hours from now, and boy am I pumped. In fact, I’ve been invited to a MLS party, where much beer will be consumed, lots of dead animals will also be consumed, and we will watch more than our [...]
NOOOOOOOOOOoooooo
By: jon |It was if thousands of voices cried out in pain, and then were silenced.
Are you ready?
2008 DC United season preview
By: jon |Well, after avoiding doing this for 2 weeks, I think it’s finally time that I have to do this. So, here you go peoples, the super brilliant season preview written by yours truly.
Nuts and Bolts — If you’ve watched any MLS since about 1996, you’d know that (aside from a few dark years) DC [...]
Game Recap- DCU 5 (!)- Harbor View 0 (DCU advances to Semi Finals)
By: jon |Well, that was a barn burner! It didn’t start out that way with weak wing play in the first half, bad touches by key players, and indecision in the final third. But the second half was a different story.
I will leave the recaps to the professionals, but I will give you my observations [...]
No News is…bad news?
By: jon |Confirmed today that Jaime Moreno will be out for the home leg of the CONCACAF Champions Cup meeting with Harbor View. This means that Niell will be starting with Emilio, with Kpene probably the first choice of the bench.
Also in the world of the walking wounded, Ben Olsen thinks he could be [...]
Jamil Walker Waived
By: jon |Walker, who’s fast in Fifa 2008, was waived today, due most likely to the glut of attacking options. We’ve got Emilio, Moreno, Niell, Dyachenko, Kpene, Quaranta, and possibly Cesar (our new Brazilian discovery). So we’re doing alright up top. It would be nice if Kpene could score though…
Also in that same link, [...]
DCU v Harbor View Post Game Discussion Thread (1-1)
By: jon |Well folks, 1-1. We got an away goal (WOO MCTAVISH) on a HORRIBLE pitch (from what I could see) and we did so sans the ALL TIME LEADING GOAL SCORER IN MLS as Christian Miles stated continuously. I didn’t watch the game live as I was in some siiiiiiick seats at the Verizon [...]
Little Bit Of This, Little Bit Of That
By: jon |-First, and most importantly. I got my 10 tickets to the Galaxy game in June and my three tickets to the game against Harbour View next week. Am I pumped? Yes sir. Can’t wait to scam some Beckham loving preteens out of their parents hard earned money. Capitalism. Yes!
-Secondly, [...]
