A full house of passionate fans yelling and chanting the entire match as two possible playoff teams, one with one of the world's most famous players and the other with a potential U.S. star, played an almost even and intense match. This […]

All of us have had friends who are in a complicated relationship. It may even have been us: the guy recently began dating a much more attractive woman who, while not a young bombshell, is still a gorgeous woman. This woman recently ended an intense relationship but does not treat your friend like a rebound […]

If you're like me, the holidays are a time of getting out of your workday routines due to relaxation/travel/stress. In fact, at times I miss news stories because I tend not to check news sites or Twitter as much as I normally do. So as I begin my work week routine again, I notice that […]

Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone! While the United States paused work to celebrate the holidays, MLS was busy receiving come hither glances from foreign soccer stars who, seeing Thierry Henry and Beckham's success in the U.S., have decided that coming to American to finish their career would be most beneficial.

While the disappointment of England’s failure to land the 2018 FIFA World Cup will take some time to disappear and questions will be asked of where it all went wrong, one man did himself no harm and that is the legend that is David Beckham. As a 24 year old male I’m not afraid to […]

A little more than a week after Colorado, an original club, won its first MLS Cup and less than a week before the U.S. potentially wins a second World Cup bid, I am optimistic about the progress of American soccer overall.

Then LA took the pitch against Seattle, and they showed the league who should be the favorites for the MLS […]

With San Jose's dramatic victory last night, they will await this weekend's slate of matches to see who their next round opponent will be. Their upset victory has set the stage for an interest weekend of matches where we could conceivably see three more lower seeds win their playoff matches and once again throw the […]

In another piece of bizarre scheduling, MLS and ESPN team up to bring us the Red Bulls and Galaxy tonight, live at 11. I'm working, so thanks to the magic of ESPN3, it suits me fine. Still, it will be interesting to see the rating for tonight's match on the deuce. Even without Thierry Henry, […]

English footballer Emile Heskey did the noble thing this week by announcing his retirement from international football. Despite lots of criticism, Heskey was a stalwart for England, making 62 appearances for his country between 1999 and 2010 and contributing a large number of assists and seven goals. He'll be remembered as a man who always […]

First there was Brand Beckham going to Hollywood. Now we have King Henry coming to the Big Apple. While MLS is getting that knack as a semi-retirement league for the world's greatest stars (Frank Lampard has mentioned it as well), Henry's signing is still a major deal for the young league. Put simply, on footballing […]

In the 'oh, you don't say' moment of the weeks following the end of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, former England captain David Beckham, in a Yahoo! webchat on Wednesday, has openly admitted that the players in the England squad need to take full responsibility for England's poor performance.
