I don't play video games. I've never owned a gaming system, nor have I ever wanted one. Online Literati is about all I'm capable of.

But from what I understand, soccer video games are huge. A lot of people use "Football Manager" as a way to judge players, and there is even a section of the Offside devoted to video games.

As everyone has undoubtedly heard by now, Landon Donovan has made noise about leaving the small pond that is MLS for a foreign destination, with the English Premier League being the presumed destination.
Donovan does this occasionally -- discussing his chances in Europe with the press, that is.

Several folks have commented on the deadness of this blog. Many apologies! But the good news is that we're bringing the blog back to life, better than ever.

From here on out, I'm going to be joined on this page by three co-bloggers who I think will be able to provide interesting, insightful and somewhat irreverent commentary on our beloved team.

Whilst thumbing through The Ball is Round: A Global History of Soccer in bed the other night, I wondered to myself "when is someone going to do the first book about Becks in America?". With Europe's bookshelves already rammed full of books about our David it was only a matter of time before someone got in the act over on this side of world.

Over the next few days, expect to read a multitude of odes written by bloggers from the UK regarding the demise of Shoot Magazine, the popular British football publication which owner IPC announced it would be shutting it down at the end of this month. Shoot! was a hugely popular weekly football magazine aimed at children.

This is my 101st post, and it's just to say "Good bye!"  I started this blog to keep track of my articles and reviews for ESPN.com's Soccernet, eventually expanding to mild analysis and poor punditry, all while making connections and forming online and "real life" friendships with some very amazing bloggers and journos around the world.

Wow. Nothing like a little controversy to help egg on what has become the biggest rivalry in MLS. What I do like though is that several DC fans have invaded the Fire's big-media blog, but no intelligible Fire fans have dared to opine on a similar post in the Insider.
I'm not going to write too much about the game itself because I once again did not witness it like some bloggers, nor did I tune into the radio like others.

REPORT: (BlancoGate) Is Major League Soccer Sending False DMCA Takedown Notices?

Blancogate has moved into a new dimension and possibly into a court of law.
As you remember, after Blanco went bezerk we posted a video from a local TV news segment on the game which was subsequently removed from Youtube by MLS under false assumptions. The video was later reinstated but it raised serious issues.

If you've missed me, sorry. I've been reading and following football, just not post due to laziness related to being sick. Anyway. There's no way I'm going to catch up, so moving on. Here's an unrelated picture of Carlos Vela and Nicklas Bendter from that great Carling Cup match. Yeah, I'll admit it, I like Nick's thighs.

I'm a bit late writing this due to numerous festivities that resulted from my sister-in-law's wedding this weekend, not the least of which included a couple of hangovers, so I'll keep my comments brief since several other smarter analysts, wittier writers, and merciless bloggers have already opined on the match.

It was just brought to my attention that about a week ago one of the bloggers at the Guardian did a piece on Rivaldo. You can read it here. It's a strange article really, often lapsing into the past tense, as if, in the author's opinion, the Rivaldo he remembers isn't playing anymore, [...]

There's something of a debate going on at the moment about sexism in sports blogging. One of my fellow lady football bloggers was interviewed about the subject but was then cross when cuts were made which she objected to.
Those of you who've been reading this blog for a while will know that one of my many objections to the game before I started learning about it was a perception that men used it to exclude women from conversations.
