Like kissing your sister.
DC came out and dominated the first half, scored their goal, and went into halftime with a lead.

Anyway, Chicago is rolling into town tonight, coming off of a strong performance last week, beating FC Dallas, 3-1. The only offense Dallas had was a 60 yard bomb by Kenny Cooper, so the [...]

I’ll have the full write up done tomorrow because a) I’m moving soon and have to pack and b) I’m too disgruntled to give you a good recap.

We’ll hit the big stuff first…
- The injury bug that plagued DC for the entire season last year has struck again, with a quad injury to our starting keeper, Louis Crayton, a pair of hamstring injuries to Fred, aka “Hamstrain”, and Santino “Day to Day” Quaranta. In addition to this triumvirate, our only rocksolid, [...]

Seriously? Why?
DC acquires Wicks from Galaxy for a conditional 2010 Draft pick. Any one else watch any LA games last year where Wicks was in the net?
