I literally was sitting on the couch screaming my heart out.

A few months ago when I started this blog we had a much different soccer scene.  The Silverbacks were still around, WPS was coming, and MLS was still a possibility.  Shortly after starting the blog we received the news that the Silverbacks were taking at least the 2009 season off, if not longer.  Then the [.
