A Week Off For the Both of Us: DC United Round Up

By: jon | Comments No Comments

Following their 1-0 win at San Juan Jabloteh on Sept 15th, the guys have been resting up, practicing, and hopefully getting some tactical and finishing work in before their next game on Thursday, against Marathon. I’ve been doing much of the same, save for the practicing or working on my finishing.
But a funny thing [...]

Preview: DC United at Metroscum

By: Chris Pavlakos | Comments 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 [...]

USOC Play-In Game: DC United 2, FC Dallas 0

By: jon | Comments No Comments

In a sparsely attended game (which may be the worst to take your Dad to as his first professional soccer experience), DCU beat out FCD 2-0, with goals by Fred and Brandon Barklage, who dazzled. Chances were easy to come by, as DC had Dallas goal under siege from the get go.
Fred [...]

Game 1: DC United at Los Angeles Galaxy

By: jon | Comments 4 Comments

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 [...]

Pre Game: DC United at New York Red Bulls

By: jon | Comments No Comments

Far be it for me to neglect you, readers, on the day before the classic NY-DC matchup up at the stadium named after my NFL team.
From what I can gather, DC is using this game as a chance to work back in some players coming off of injury. On turf, I’d have [...]

Post Game: LA Galaxy 1, DC United 4

By: jon | Comments 3 Comments

Well, that was an uncomfortable temperature for a truly entertaining game. But, that’s what you get when ABC wants the game at 12. I just hope the ratings were worth having the game played on the surface of the sun.
Where to begin? Oh, I know. Greater than the win, or the [...]

The Gruesome Aftermath: Chicago Fire 2, DC United 0

By: jon | Comments 3 Comments

Wow. Woooow. I can’t throw this game away like I did for Colorado, as there are no excuses this time. I took down some notes during the game, because I knew this post would be a doozy.
So here we go.

Recap: RSL 4, DC United 0

By: jon | Comments 2 Comments

Wow. That was one would call a “dismantling”. As I said on the last JPEG thread, this game was mostly unwatchable from a DCU fan perspective.
Some observations that :
- The personnel was not on the field to play a 3-4-3. Nope. If Domenic Mediate is on the field, you’ve already lost. [...]
