To be a soccer fan in DC
By: jon |There is a caveat to this post: we don’t have it near as bad as Red Bull fans have it. True, they have a new stadium coming, but that team is a disaster from top to bottom, with little hope of immediate recovery. Now that I’ve cleared that up, this is a bad [...]
Exclusive: Ben Olsen to retire before the season ends (Maybe)
By: jon |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.

Houston is not considered to be a contender this year, with losing DeRo, and not many more additions. The team [...]
DC United: Better than the Nationals
By: jon |I’m still at work, and still pretty busy (or at least, don’t want to be caught blogging), but an interesting post just came my way, and I figured I’d share it.
Disclaimer: I am a Nationals fan, one that knows we suck. A lot. I used to blog about them, but then the suck [...]
