We're Changing (Along with Everyone Else)

0
Hi all. A quick note to let everyone know we will be moving over in the next few days to www.amoresplendidlife.com. Commercial death I know. Please do not panic if things go wrong. I am as scared as all of you.

Kind regards,

The Proprietor.

PS This is what happens when you make casual acquaintances with someone involved in web hosting. Click to continue reading...

Primetime MLS action

1
I'll admit I'm a non-informed blogger on this post.

I was too busy watching the awesome USC v. Oregon State game last tonight to check out the Galaxy v. Fire.

But L.A. gave up a bunch of goals and lost, I could've told you that long before kickoff. Click to continue reading...

Eboue comes of age

3
By 1970's Gooner Now don't tell me that Fabregas is tired because he didn't have a pre season! His performance at Bolton was outstanding. There are a lot of Arsenal fans who take everything that a certain blogger, who once wrote a very average book about "the professor", dreams up as a fact of life. Click to continue reading...

A few things...

10
You know it works, I may add as the day goes... #1 - English outlets are now talking up young Charles Renken-to-Arsenal academy. It should be quite fun to watch this young man's career unfold. Infamous (trust me... he'll like that modifier) BigSoccer blogger Bill Archer talks about the fuss and argues that he should forgo Euro-training to remain in the USSF Bradenton Residency program.

Game Blog: Spain v Bosnia

0

Hola! I'm Dancy, the new co-blogger for Spain, and a huge fan of their footy. I noticed this space wasn't getting much action lately – and that totally needs to change! I mean, we're falling behind in numbers of posts to Holland (1400+!), France, England, and Germany? That can't happen! After the Euros – c'mon, this team needs to be worshipped.

Fancy Writing For Our Footy Blog?

0
You may or may not have noticed that the Footy Blog recently came under new ownership in the past few months. As the site is owned by a new group of people, all the previous writers have left and so Footy Blog has found itself to be lacking a regular, talented football-news blogger. If you are [..

Looking Ahead to 2009: The Involvement of College Soccer Players

12
Hey! I am a new blogger here at FCTP! My name is USvsIreland and I am a student who is a massive fan of US Soccer. Hope you enjoy the first piece.
Looking Ahead to 2009: The Involvement of College Soccer Players

       What went largely unnoticed in the furor of our Olympic exploits (or lack thereof) is that the United States sent a Youth National Team to a tournament without a single non-professional player. Click to continue reading...

Clint Dempsey X T.I.A.S.

3
Blogger-in-arms & fellow Designated Player Adam Spangler spent a mess of time in London at the tail end of last season with Clint Dempsey. They were getting mobbed by school kids and rolling through SW6 to a soundtrack straight out of Houston's 5th Ward. If only I was there, then it would have been truly ridiculous.

Read ‘em and Weep: Austria 3-1 France

2

Okay, let's look at the bright side.

Um...

I know there's something...

Oh, got one! Actually, more than one!

1) Jérémy Toulalan gets better every game, and is looking more attack-minded as well. He's becoming less wary about shooting from distance, which can knock defenses off guard a good thing, as our offense can be extremely predictable.

Prem weekend preview

1
So here are the fixtures for the weekend ahead. Note that Manchester United, by virtue of being Champions League winners, play in the Super Cup against UEFA Cup winners Zenit St. Petersburg in Monaco tonight. It should be added for readers that don't know that the Super Cup is about as important as an NFL pre-season game. Click to continue reading...

The problem with Arsenal

1
It's easy to think of Arsenal as a cliche - fancy boys who sulk when the going gets tough. That's also kind of true (that's team captain William Gallas having a sit-down protest on the halfway line during the game against Birmingham last season).

But a bigger problem than stereotyped (they are mostly French, after all) character flaws is Arsene Wenger. Click to continue reading...

FC Twente - Second Leg plus other ramblings

2

As many of you know, today features the second leg of Champions League qualifying against those pesky Dutch, FC Twente. Led by Steve McLaren, the legendary English coach, this should not be a big deal, what with a 2-0 lead on aggregate from the first leg. However, it's always fun to play the role of the glass half full blogger, so let's go there.

Fulham will be easy, right?

1
Wrong. But these are the games that we must win to sustain a title challenge.

This wont be easy today. It's a London derby and Fulham will be right up for this. Arsenal will need to focus completely and in all honesty every game from now to the end of the season should be like a cup final for Arsenal. Click to continue reading...

SF Goes Legit (For the Day at Least)

4
Hey y'all. I was the guest blogger for The Red Card, the Chicago Tribune's soccer blog. It seems that Luis is on holiday and in between interesting people like Leslie Osborne and Ben Olsen, he decided to let me sully the good name of the venerable Windy City publication. Nice!

Bundesliga Offside Rewind: Faster, Higher, Stronger

1
The Olympics took center stage this week, not just on the world stage, but also in our blogs... Our Bremen blogger Brian looked at Diego's Olympic club vs country saga from all possible angles. (Werder Offside) Replace Diego with Rafinha and then our new Schalke blogger Jon basically did what Brian did. Click to continue reading...

Different days for Derby and Doncaster

0
It was a game that encapsulated what the Championship is all about. Last season Derby were two divisions above Doncaster but this season they are battling against each other. For the home team, Derby, it was a chance to put relegation behind them and announce that they mean to go straight back to the Premier League. Click to continue reading...

Apologies to SF over at The Offside Rules for the photo-caption-style-jack, but it was too easy to pass up. I consider myself pretty level-headed for a blogger and message board poster, and I try to keep things in perspective, for better or for worse. Allow me now to throw that all out the window, as [.

All The Bull: Cunningham trade?

4

- Would Jeff Cunningham be the cure for our goal scoring needs up top? Would he be a good fit with Angel's game? If you are day dreaming, not so fast. Cunningham's baggage has ruled him out of the Red Bulls plans, so says King Blogger Ives. A Cunningham signing, especially in light of TFC's current scoring woes, would have been a grasp of desperation by the organization.

Reflections on US Soccer Impostor Syndrome and the MLS All-Star Game

6
A couple of years ago, before I embarked on the whole soccer blogging adventure, I swapped emails with another blogger on the topic of whether I'd be able to write regularly on a subject where I felt, essentially, like a total impostor. His response? As for [feeling like] an impostor, I think it's [. Click to continue reading...

Cobb Futbol Club Introduces New Website

9
Cobb Futbol Club have relaunched their website as CobbFC.net. The new site has a sleek new look - but as any decent blogger worth his salt will tell you, you've got to have the content to back it up.

A quick scan of the some the juicer areas tells me that they are on the right track with the placeholders but still have quite a bit of work to do filling it up with quality content. Click to continue reading...

Photo of the Day: The Life of Peter Crouch

I generally don't like to give two photo posts back to back, but it's only Chris and me this week, and he just Blackberry'd me to say that he had just watched a utility truck snip his cable and drive away. Thank you, utility company, for leaving me the only Offside blogger with internet access. So [. Click to continue reading...

Vote: Andy Gray, Love Him or Hate Him?

My co-blogger Chris hates (detests, despises, loathes, wants to take out in a dark alley) Sky Sports and (recently) ESPN commentator Andy Gray. The final straw came in the Spain-Italy game on ESPN, when Gray wished Spanish player Cesc Fabregas "good luck" before his penalty. (Chris's comments: "Did he really just say [.

Goodbye All

My stint as guest blogger is over as I am heading out of town to see family tomorrow.  I get back into town about July 10th so I'll poke my head in here then, if not sooner.  Laurie is almost finished with Euros and will be back doing the awesome job she does here.

I've loved being here with you all and filling in.
