Sports fandom is a peculiar portion of our existence. Being a sports fan is going to leave you heartbroken more often than not. No matter what league you follow or team you root for, odds are you may go your entire life without seeing your team win a championship. The vast majority of fans leave […]

Have you ever wondered what a typical matchday experience in the Premier League? It's a home match, the above video is a good representation of what it's like thanks to Tim Howard who walks us through, in this case, a home match at Everton Football Club. The one thing that jumps out in my mind […]

With the Premier League season wrapped up for the summer and no big tournaments to speak of this summer (other than perhaps the Copa America) all football fans will be watching the transfer market with keen interest. This summer in particular will be an interesting one for Manchester United fans like myself. It is already […]

As the summer transfer window opens and teams across Europe begin their annual spending spree/discount sale, I wanted to share the perspective of American fans of Bari, Brescia, and Sampdoria, or the “Relegated Three” for the 2011-2012 season. Relegation is a part of soccer life, and much has been written on the pain of seeing […]

The new adidas Soccer “All In” TV spot premieres tonight during the Chicago […]

The Columbus Crew have a knack for late game heroics recently. This past weekend it was Rich Blachan grabbing a goal late in stoppage time to salvage a tie with the Red Bulls. Last night it was a furious second half rally full of controversy that saw home fans booing the game-tying goal and Will […]

Like parents watching their children grow up and leave the house for the first time it is with great pride, joy and a tinge of sadness that ChampionshipTalk must we say goodbye to the promoted sides from the Championship. It is time to say farewell to Norwich, QPR and Swansea, as these teams can now proudly call themselves residents of the Premier League. We would like to leave you with our best wishes and some friendly advice on what to expect in the next 12 months to help make sure you do not return with your pockets empty and tail between your legs.

A photo has been leaked on the Internet revealing Manchester City's new shirt for the 2011-12 Premier League season. It's another simple but elegant design by Umbro. The sky blue shirt features a white v-neck collar, the sponsors name in black instead of white and also features the familiar logos of Manchester City and Umbro. […]

Friday night sees the New York Red Bulls take on the New England Revolution. The Red Bulls went winless for the month of May going 0-2-4 and added another draw to begin June. That leaves them seven games without a win. There's no better example then last week's game where they gave up a 90th+ […]

As reported by the Daily Mail, Chelsea delegates are due to meet with 18-year-old Anderlecht striker Romelu Lukaku to bring what many call "the next Didier Drogba" to the club next season.

If the last two Portland Timbers losses have shown me anything, it’s this: Yes, we are an expansion team. After experiencing the euphoric feeling that came along with attending our first two home openers at JELD-WEN field, the Timbers have begun a slow and steady decline back to mediocrity (reality). Sigi was right. This team […]

I have been a dedicated Arsenal supporter since the move to the Emirates. Over the last few seasons, the Gunners have faded out of the title race as the campaign wore on. Disappointing seasons for sure, but none can compare to 2010-2011 season. As I look back over the season, the Tottenham match in November […]

Fifteen minutes. That is all it took for the U.S. Men’s National Team to turn Saturday’s embarrassment at the hands of Spain into nothing more than a bump in the road during an international friendly. When Jozy Altidore found the back of the net 15 minutes into the Americans’ game against Canada in Tuesday night’s opening […]
