In early August of 2006, it was announced that ESPN had paid for the rights to broadcast MLS. At the announcement, officials from both sides agreed that ESPN would brand MLS with all the glory that its broadcasting style conveys to U.S. sports fans. But, another MLS season has come and gone and except for the soccer purists, it has passed […]

I'll be watching Juventus vs. Reggina on Saturday and of course the big one, Roma vs. Fiorentina, come Sunday morning. Should be interesting to see how Fiorentina respond after dropping out of further Champions League action mid-week with the defeat to the lads from Lyon. In listening to post-match interviews by Fiorentina keeper Sébastien Frey, the Viola simply didn't […]

Atop Group A Roma have definitely turned the right corner with a renewed march toward this year's Champions League final again possible. After a terrible start to their domestic season and the shocking opening loss to CFR Cluj in the Group stage, all is forgiven by Romanista fans with Roma's reversal of the group opener beating Romanian side Cluj […]

Brian Ching’s header last night sent the Dynamo through to the quarterfinals of the CONCACAF Champions League. For all the criticisms of this tournament by MLS apologists, the event has produced from my vantage point much more entertaining football than MLS itself, and the Dyanmo who are a class organization whose goal is to collect […]

The Sounders FC expansion draft was conducted Wednesday and the new Seattle franchise did quite well. Nate Jaqua returned to MLS after a successful season in Europe, largely with the idea of playing for the Sounders, so his choice was pre ordained.
