Toronto FC got their first goal and three points of their franchise in a 3-1 win over the Chicago. Danny Dichio got Toronto its first goal in the 24th minute and the FC faithful responded by flinging seat covers, the give away for the game, onto the field in celebration. Chicago struck back 12 minutes later [...] Click to continue reading...

Because a 1-1 game on own goals just doesn't do it for me (neither does the 20 minute discussion of Freddy Adu). So again, I'm in a "doesn't that guy look like that guy" kind of mood… see the Claudio-Taylor comparison earlier. So any way, aside from looking like a blood sucking vampire, Colorado coach [...] Click to continue reading...

Since I haven't really said anything in a weekish (and since I haven't watched a game since Thursday), I thought I'd provide an invaluable service and throw up some links for where to get some MLS game torrents. For those who don't know, torrents are basically way a distributed way to… well… distribute files over the [. Click to continue reading...

Will Toronto ever score? Obviously they will, but even despite putting together some solid stretches of soccer, they never really threatened on goal. And this is with Kevin Hartman in goal. Anyone could notch one against him. Eddie's goal was weak. Greg Sutton is just not an MLS caliber keeper, there's no reason to get beat [...] Click to continue reading...

No real reason for this. I'm watching Dallas and New York and they get a close up on Reyna. Perhaps I'm alone, but does anyone else think he looks like American Idol winner Taylor Hicks? Maybe if you gray'd up Reyna's hair a lot… I dunno, just spit-balling. Click to continue reading...

The Wiz and Toronto are playing in a massive rainstorm in Kansas City, and around 300 people look to have shown up. It will be interesting to see what spin MLS puts on the attendance numbers, because the seats behind the goal are literally bare. All the fans are scrunched around midfield in the first [...] Click to continue reading...

So I sit here going through some stats through 3 weeks of the season, since only 1 game was actually available on MLS.tv this weekend (and that one started showing in the 25th minute). Home teams have 10 wins, 6 ties and 2 losses. That's a 72% winning percentage. That's the highest percentage since the first [...] Click to continue reading...

That's a story, kind of, that Columbus scored a goal. But the Revs are taking the game 2-1, with goals by Twellman and Dorman. The emerging story right now is that things could get a little violent in the second half after a vicious Andy Herron elbow to the nose of Jay Heaps. [...] Click to continue reading...

The Crew battled back from a 2-1 halftime deficit on Kei Kamara goal from Frankie Hejduk to salvage a home 2-2 draw. The Crew kind of floated along for a good 70 minutes, bookending two Revolution goals in the process. For long spells, Ned Grabavoy, Eddie Gaven and Frankie Hejduk disappeared. When they resurfaced, the [...] Click to continue reading...

Well, Colorado starts off their match in a hole after 5 minutes, with striker Roberto Brown getting red carded on a high challenge on CJ Brown. Bit of a weak red card, but it can be argued the ref made the right call. So its 10 v 11 as the Rapids attempt to hold off [...] Click to continue reading...

Houston scored on a Brian Ching header (of course) in the 64th minute off a free kick to take out Chivas USA 1-0. This wasn't really one of those boring low scoring games (see Columbus earlier), with both teams pushing it end to end in what was both a technical yet physical game. Neither team [...] Click to continue reading...

Although neither game is technically over, I think its safe to say that Toronto and DC are both set to lose their matches. In Foxboro, the Revolution led throughout, with Toronto never really able to mount a serious challenge to the goal. The Revs took the game 4-0 with Taylor Twellman starting the scoring with two [...] Click to continue reading...

An uneventful match yields a boring nil-nil draw. The Crew had 2 real chances, 1 on a needle threading pass from Ned Grabavoy that Jason Garey couldn't finagle into goal. The second was a rocket from the foot of Eddie Gaven from 25 yards out that forced Nick Rimando into a sprawling save. Salt Lake never [...] Click to continue reading...

No, not that Deuce (well, maybe the one on the left)… Taylor Twellman has quickly hit up the suspect Toronto back line with two quick goals in 18 minutes. As I type this, he misses the 19th minute hat trick by about 2 feet. He slotted home a nice near post shot after the [...] Click to continue reading...

That's who I keep picturing providing the color on the Columbus-RSL game. If its not "The Body", then its got to be one of the guys from "Da Bears" skit on SNL. He sounds like he's 1 braut away from a heart attack. And please, let him know that gutteral utterances such as "mmmhmm" really [...] Click to continue reading...
