I've made my feelings known. I don't think the team is going anywhere fast. And frankly, because they are only one point ahead of being in last place among Major League Soccer's 16 clubs, and the team below them, the expansion Philadelphia Union, have three games in hand on United, there isn't much farther south they can go.

D.C. United kicks off another home campaign by welcoming the New England Revolution to the nation's capital (7:30 p.m., MLS Direct Kick).

Both teams are coming off unimpressive season openers, with United falling 4-0 at Kansas City and New England dropping a 1-0 result to the Los Angeles Galaxy at the Home Depot Center.

One or two of the comments on my most recent Soccernet article suggest that Argentina's barra bravas are no more than choreographed fans who are more passionate about the game than typical English fans who turn up to the game and eat prawn sandwiches without looking at the pitch (that's a typical English fan, apparently).

It's a battle of a pair of teams at the bottom of the table at the Home Depot Center as D.C. United visits Chivas USA (ESPN2, 7pm PST).

Both clubs come into the match looking to salvage something from seasons that quickly gone awry. For United, the club will look to build on a satisfying win at home against expansion Philadelphia while Chivas USA looks for their first win since July 31st.
