As was previously stated here (okay, I was off by a little bit), it looks like Ben Olsen is going to hang up his boots. Although it could have been easily guessed that his time was running out, Olsen has decided that either pain or other considerations have made it undesirable to continue his [...]
DCU News: Payne Talks, Soehn Waits, Players (Move?)
By: jon | 3 Comments
As always, Mr. Unprecedented Access, Steve Goff, has a sit down with Kevin Payne and Tom Soehn over on his blog. Some big quotes…
“We don’t want to play like Colorado or New England, which most of the season sat with eight or nine guys behind the ball. How many people go to watch Colorado [...]
Exclusive: Ben Olsen to retire before the season ends (Maybe)
By: jon | 4 Comments
I got in trouble that last time I posted something unconfirmed, but under my new charter of “being unofficial, being irresponsible, and being the first to report stuff”, I’ll give it a go anyway.
I just heard from my source (the same one that said the Real Madrid was confirmed, and then it was later on [...]

By: Chris Pavlakos | No Comments
Tradition
Ah, the annual trip to the concrete jungle, the armpit of america, RFK North. With Red Bull Arena under construction and supposed to open for the 2010 season, this could be the last time United plays the metroscum/pink cows in the spectacularly horrid Giant Stadium. Christian Gomez and Ange N’silu are on the injury list [...]

Like kissing your sister.
DC came out and dominated the first half, scored their goal, and went into halftime with a lead.
They came back out a different team, and were hurt by a mistake by backup keeper, Josh Wicks. Sloppy passing, poor shot selection, and questionable decisions by DC players led to the draw and [...]
Game 2- Chicago Fire at DC United

Sorry this is getting up so late, but better late then never. Moving and packing is a time consuming situation.
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 [...]
Game 1: DC United at Los Angeles Galaxy

Ok folks, the games finally start counting for something. We’ll start to see less of players like Brandon Barklage, and more of the Jaime Moreno’s of the world. And that makes me excited.
This Sunday, United travels to the Home Depot Center to visit one of the sadder cases in MLS in the last [...]

This is it.
The beginning of the 2009 MLS Campaign begins today, with light jogging and some stretching. I couldn’t be happier.

Post Game- Colorado 0, DC United 3
By: jon | 3 Comments
I have got to get out of this habit of only posting post game reports…
I was there last night, and I was fairly pleased. I say fairly because there were some stupid passes in the midfield, and some questionable play by certain players (I’m looking your way Emilio), and because we SHOULD get three [...]
