Tomorrow is the finals for 2008 for MLS soccer. Columbus the supporters shield winner vs the Energy
Drink and the under 500 eighth place team.
NY has been playing well during the playoff, but hopefully Columbus shows it's dominance in 2008
and win its first supporters shield. Columbus was the best team this year, and deserves it's first
Cup.

David is going to Italy during the off season because he wants to play for England. He wants to
keep in shape so that he can be picked for the squad and play ten minutes a game for England.
He wants to play in South Africa for World Cup 2010. England sucks, so they are a perfect
match.
Vasco says cool, Don't let the door hit you in the Arse on the way out of the USA.

The once proud DC United team, has now went almost four and a half games without scoring. Has went
16-21-4 this season. With six games to go before the season is put out of its misery, Three MLS and
Three CCL games. They laid an egg in superliga losing all three, they have laid an egg in the CCL
so far losing all three.

I know I promised I wouldn't watch or care about the women's nation team of the US till the team
was cleared of the punks.
I was watching the Brasilian women's team, they just happened to be outplaying the US team once
again. Hope Solo, remember her, kicked off of the team for talking, she won gold this week for the
women's national team.

Alexi Lalas was finally canned, and Rudd Guilt resigned and once again the Circus that is the LA
Galaxy is shining more than the product on the field.
MLS flagship team, (NOT) is once again shining more than Barnum and Bailey's, now Bruce Arena wants
to be the ringmaster, and reports are that he has been hired to be the ringmaster.

DC takes off the month of July from MLS games, except now they have the makeup game with Houston
three days after the Super Liga game in DC. Good choice on the makeup date.
Great to see Ben Olsen play last Sunday, the standing ovation that he received when entering the
game shows how the fans feel about him.

Steven Goff is reporting on his blog that a Mexican team Morelia was in town scouting Emilio last
night. What a night it was for Emilio scoring his first MLS hat trick. While lots of us wanted
Emilio run out of town a month ago, the last 4 games have proven one thing; as Emilio goes so does
DC United.

The first third of the season is over now that everyone has played ten games, and then some, I have
been busy at work and stuff.
Biggest surprise of the season, the Eastern Conference, the first place western conference team
would only be in fifth place in the East. Team wise it has to be DC United at 3-7 DC has not lived
upped to the hype and tradition that is DC United.

I didn't think I would see it on Saturday night. Emilio cleans up and gets the game winner.
The biggest question though is what the heck was Edu thinking a two handed push from behind in the
box. Then had to nerve to complain. He should have been red carded for that, but American refs
being what they are we should just be glad he called for the PK.

Brasil is coming to town. May 31st in Seattle vs Canada, June 6th in Boston vs Venezuela. While I
understand the trip to Boston I do not understand the trip to Seattle. Maybe there are more
Portuguese people in Seattle than I am aware of.
World Cup qualifying starts next month in South America, with Brasil taking on Paraguay way on the
15th, and home on the 18th vs Argentina.

Well that is why predictions are just that, a shot in the dark. Sigi and Columbus are 6-1-1, and
were my prediction for first Coach fired of the MLS season. Speaking of predictions, do you really
think Emilio is going to score 30 this year, ya me neither.
Steve Morrow and FC Dallas became the first to cut the rope today when Mr.

What do you do when the heart and soul of your team is injured and is facing the serious
possibility of not being able to ever return to the pitch? Click on the link to read about Benny
Olsen, a DC United hall of famer in waiting.
The pride of American Soccer DC United is facing that and facing that the hard way now at 2-5.

Yes, Vasco's parents taught him that, so I have been quiet. After last night's games I had to say
something. LAST FREAKING PLACE, and Columbus is at the top not eastern conference, that is MLS.
Everyone keeps talking about the Concacaf hangover, what 1-3-0 in MLS play, with a minus 4 goal
difference.

One of the biggest complaints and biggest points Eurosnobs make is that MLS teams don't show up for
every game. Well this week will be fuel for the Eurosnobs fire. Wednesday night DC showed up and
beat the best club team in Concacaf, 2-1 they outplayed them and earned a victory. Lost the series
but earned a victory none the less.

It is the greatest day of the year, The home opener, better if the home opener is the first game
too. This year it isn't though, and we have played three Concacaf tournment games too.
DC United has it's MLS Home Opener today, looks like the rain is going to hold off. Dads look at
their kids with a little twinkle in their eye, because we know there are several months of special
moments to spend with their children.
