Make Big Plays Today! DCU at FC Dallas
By: jon |Were there regulation in MLS, this would be called a relegation 6 pointer. DC United stinks on the road, but FC Dallas stinks everywhere. Dallas sits second to last in the Western Conference with 23 points, and DCU has 32 points which puts them in 4th in the East. Rapidly losing ground [...]
Roster Moves, Toronto Pre Game, CCL
By: jon |A busy day at Offside HQ, and whole boat load of stuff to talk about. Strap in.
- First and foremost, roster moves. The long rumored, and now finally finalized move for David Habaruguira, defender from Anderlecht in the Netherlands. He had throughly impressed Tom Soehn, enough that he had this to say, [...]
Preview: DC United at Metroscum
By: Chris Pavlakos |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 [...]
Game 3: Houston Dynamo vs DC United
By: jon |This is a big game. I don’t care that it’s April. I don’t care that we’re not fully healthy. We need three points, this weekend. That’s it. End of story.
Houston is not considered to be a contender this year, with losing DeRo, and not many more additions. The team [...]
Game 2- Chicago Fire at DC United
By: jon |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
By: jon |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 [...]
The Rematch: New England Revolution vs DC United
By: jon |1 week ago, DC dispatched a New England reserve side and advanced to the finals of the US Open Cup.
This week, DC plays NE again. The faces have changed, but may the result be no different.
Again, Matt Reis will not be playing, but NE looks to have more of its attacking options with them, [...]
Pre Game: DC United at New York Red Bulls
By: jon |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 [...]
Better Late than Never: Pre Game post DC United vs Atlante FC
By: jon |I’m sitting in my office, after everyone has left. I just changed into my Quaranta jersey, and realized I have neglected my fair blog. So, in case you planned on checking this 3 hours before game time, here’s a little post action.
DC came off an unlucky 2-1 defeat at the hands of Chivas [...]
Pre Game, Links of the Week, Access United and a Music Recommendation
By: jon |Wooo. After a whole 3 days without a game, DC United is back in action in RFK against Chivas de Guadalajara. Let me say this, as an avid follower of the USMNT, having seen quite a few US v Mexico tussles, I can say that I’m not a big fan of Mexican football [...]
