Since this weekend is the derby, I thought I'd make the Great Serie A Games post a derby. We go
back to the 2001-2002 season, Roma are the defending champions and take on Lazio in March of 2002.
Roma wanted a second consecutive scudetto, and were fighting on top with Juventus and Inter all
season.
In the 2009 season, 114 players made their competitive debuts for an MLS team. Over the past 14
years, the total number has now risen to 1,369. There's a possibility we could see the 1,500th
player next year. The 1,000th player was Houston's Paul Dalglish in late 2006.
So where did all of these players come from?
2009 Recap: I must come clean. I loved the Gals in 2009. I had hated them so
long, I thought I could never love them again, but, sure enough, Bruce Arena won me back. The Gals
had 16 new players on the roster, but once again the only two anyone ever talked about were LD and
Becks.
