" If nothing more, this roster at least signals that Bradley is serious about trying to win some games. Moreover, the selection is a welcome change from a pattern that had some players wondering if their international careers were finished as soon as they dared play in better leagues overseas." His view pretty much sums […]

1. Does anyone watch Super Saturday+ anymore? Nothing against Nick Webster and Keith Costigan, but after watching 10 hours of Premiership soccer on a Saturday (from the early game on Setanta all the way through to the end of the tape-delayed match at 5:15pm on Fox), can anyone stomach any more soccer coverage? I still […]

Bob Bradley has passed his first major test to be National Team Coach in my eyes. Unlike his predecessor and mentor, Bruce Arena who often times ignored the play of non "chosen" American players based in European leagues, Bradley picked three players for the upcoming friendlies versus Ecuador and Guatemala that I have been calling […]

By John Nicholson Last night news broke that the Football League board is considering a proposal to outlaw drawn games, enforcing a penalty shoot-out to decide every game instead. Whoo hoo!

Huckerby collected the ball in his own half and charged up the flank, he then slipped past two tackles before powering home a strike from about […]

I just returned last night from SPORTELAmerica, one of the top events for sports TV broadcasters. It's important to us, the viewers, because this is the type of event where much of the wheeling and dealing is done that ultimately decides what TV rights deals will go to which companies. In the next few days, […]
