D.C. United (10-11-3) at the Galaxy (6-10-8)

2

First off, my thoughts are with Palos Verdes Peninsula resident Bill Mason this evening, a long-time AYSO referee and a score board operator for the Galaxy, who I discovered tonight had a stroke last Sunday and is in intensive care at Torrance Memorial Hospital. Bill has struggled with ill health for some time and certainly didn't need this, so let's hope he's back in the press box soon.

Galaxy v. Wizards

0

The Suck Bowl.

My husband is a lifelong New Orleans Saints fan.  For years now whenever the Saints play a team with an equally poor record he calls it "The Suck Bowl."  A fitting moniker for the game but the game usually ends up being quite entertaining.  A sucky offense against a sucky defense?

KC Welcomes Beckham and the Galaxy

0
Tomorrow afternoon, the Wizards return to Arrowhead Stadium to take on David Beckham and the Galaxy at 4 pm. Both team's are struggling right now, as since the all star break, the two are a combined 1-7-5. LA hasn't won since June. KC's only win since the all star break was a game against Chivas USA that they probably should have only gotten a point out of. Click to continue reading...

(Even more of) Your Questions Answered

1

Good evening folks. I was able to work my way through the third of four parts of the most recent SBI Q&A session. There some very good and interesting questions in this batch, including asking for my takes on best American field players ever and best strikers in the world right now. There's a little something for everybody.

Who Will Play Against Real Salt Lake On Saturday?

6

The Galaxy looked sharper than they had in weeks last Saturday against the Revolution, which bodes well for the run they will have to make in order to get into the playoffs. However, this Saturday MLS has, in its infinite wisdom, decided to schedule league matches concurrently with a FIFA World Cup qualifier date.

Chicago Fire (9-6-5) at Galaxy (6-8-6)

2

Turns out Bruce Arena's first Galaxy team looks a lot like Ruud Gullit's last team - not that he's got many options of course.

David Beckham is on his way to China for the Olympics closing ceremonies, Landon Donovan is recovering from last night's Guatemalan hackfest, um, game, Carlos Ruiz is now a Toronto player, eh, and new signing Eddie Lewis has the evening off too, recovering from the nasty blow to the head he took, no doubt.

The Thursday Night Hype: B Team Edition

1
I've been sitting on this photo since the last week of last season. That was that pivotal "winner makes the playoffs" match between LA & Chicago that was one of the high points of 2007. Just like a the final episode of Six Feet Under it had drama & closure and it left you wanting more. But due to the curse of FIFA dates, stadium availabilities etc. Click to continue reading...

Galaxy at Chivas USA & a Bruce Arena Sighting

2

Blogging could be problematic tonight because of problems with the tubes and wires of the Internet thingie here at the Home Depot Center so bear with me (hey, it's only a $150 million stadium).

But former U.S. Coach Bruce Arena is in the building this evening so you know what that means. He didn't come all the way out from the East Coast just to watch.

Subjective Readings

1
Everyone has an opinion about Becks, it seems. Even those who know little about MLS. It amused me that the BBC would take in the NY/LA game, watch Juan Pablo Angel's goal, Van Den Bergh's cracker, Buddle's dribble and chip and come away with the description of "second-division football".
Ah well. Click to continue reading...

Edson Buddle, Superstar

6

He was a laughing stock, awkward, enigmatic, inconsistent, a full of potential but far from reaching it kind of a player. Now? He's got his own T-shirt.

Hat trick Buddle? Who saw this coming?

The Difference a Year Makes - Galaxy v. Red Bulls

1

Thinking back on last years epic encounter, and awaiting this years confrontation, one has to be astounded by the difference a year has made. Here are a couple of things that stick out most for me:

1) The Bulls are trying to avoid the basement, while the Galaxy are trying to steal away first place from Real Salt Lake.

Draw all over LA

1

Chivas USA draw in the most recent battle for LA. Chivas USA scored there only point through Ante Razov with a spectacular strike from outside the box. To be fair, he deserves goal of the week... again.

Brad was Brad stopping almost every shot on goal. Buddle snuck one past.

Shavar Thomas is back in the fold and played great.

Buddle not bigheaded

2
He may be tied for the league lead in goals, but Edson Buddle didn't seem to be letting that puff him up too much.
He still doesn't like turf, though he'd like to play in the All-Star Game. He's especially self-deprecating when talking about his national team chances.

The win they needed

0
After a couple of underwhelming victories the past few weeks, this win was just what United needed to not only continue their unbeaten streak, but also gain some confidence going into Superliga. Recently, United has been beating lesser opponents while giving up too many goalscoring opportunities. But in this match, against inarguably one of the most talented offensive teams in the league, DC dominated possession, dominated the scoreline, and performed admirably well on defense.

EURO 2008 Third-place Goes To . . .

2

There are many reasons to love the European Champions, but my favorite is the lack of a third-place playoff. As you know we align ourselves with Glengarry Glen Ross on third-place . . . although we aren't sure the EUROs give a Caddy for first place. (What is the European equivalent to the big-ass, gas-guzzling, ostentatious Cadillac El Dorado?

Anyone Fancy A Little Afternoon Delight This Sunday?

2
Normally I don't condone talking about a players race, religion, sexuality or wife & children. But in the cae fo the photo above, the Screaming Eagles kind of have a point. Sorry Posh, but they can hit them highs in way that you can't...they are the Mariah Carey of supporters groups.
Depending on what part of the country you are in you'll need to either skip church, wake up early or not even go to sleep to watch Sunday's 12pm EST match between DC United and LA Galaxy, a game we're calling "The Nooner" here at TOR Towers. Click to continue reading...

Galaxy v. Crew Preview

1

Week 13 already?

Looks like we're doing well though.  Landon Donovan and Edson Buddle are #1 and #2 respectively on the MLS high-scoring list.  A Galaxy player has captured 6 of the last 12 MLS Player of the Week awards.  We lead the Western standings.  So far so good!

The Columbus Crew come to the HDC with a record of 7-4-1 versus our record of 6-4-2.

Alternating Conclusions Ranking

4
1. New England Revolution - The class of the league.
2. Los Angeles - Buddle and Beckham get the job done without Donovan or Ruiz.
3. Toronto - Still have trouble on the road, but are solid gold at home.
4. Columbus - Sigi managed to shake the Crew out of their slumping slumber.

Buddle for USMNT?

3

Just another thought here. Excepting today's rout of Barbados it seems that the USMNT is still lacking a consistent finisher up top. Does Buddle deserve another look?

I have to say that Eddie Johnson has been unimpressive as of late. He's a bit lumbering. And Ching, while providing a great target in the air, is not as impressive in creating chances.

Buddle Player of the Week, Nominee for Goal of the Week

0

Vote for Goal of the Week here. (Does anyone remember the episode of Bugs Bunny where Elmer Fudd was chasing him through the nosebleed seats at the opera? And they are climbing over people's laps saying, "'Scuse me, pardon me, 'scuse me, 'scuse me, pardon me." That's what this goal reminds me of.
