In a press conferance held today, Jeff Cooper, owner of the St. Louis team that will play in the
proposed North American Soccer League (NASL), made several announcements.
The team will be called AC St. Louis. The logo is a Flame de Lis and has a clean look with the
arch around the logo representative of the St.
If you live in the Bay Area, are in need of some lightly-used IKEA furniture and want a
once-in-a-lifetime experience, then Shea Salinas has a deal for you! As you might recall, the
popular San Jose Earthquakes midfielder was scooped up by the Philadelphia Union in last month's
expansion draft. Facing a cross-country relocation, he has apparently decided to start fresh in his
new home and is selling off some of his furniture on Craigslist.
The agent of Barcelona midfielder Yaya Toure has told Chelsea, Manchester City and Arsenal to make
them an offer.
The midfielder, 26, younger brother of City's Kolo, has failed to nail down a regular spot in
Barca's first-team this season and could be on his way for £10million.
Next up for the U.S. could be a game against Honduras in Los Angeles.
The U.S. Soccer Federation has yet to announce the game, indicating it has not been finalized. La
Prensa reported Monday that Honduras would be meeting the U.S. in Los Angeles Jan. 24.
The La Prensa site also has a story quoting David Suazo's brother as saying the Catrachos would not
be able to defeat Spain "even with 22 players.

I haven't heard this one in a while and though I appreciate the introspective nature of this
idea I have to pan it because it basically makes no sense to me. Barca's manager, Pep Guardiola,
has delayed signing an extension with the club even after he's led them to every major title you
can imagine and here is his reason:
"He has managed for the best time in the history of Barca.
Randy Covitz of the KC Star has done a story about Drake's run in the NCAA Men's Soccer tournament
that features several stars from the KC area. You might recognize the name Matt Kuhn. Matt is the
younger brother of Wizards blogger extraordinaire Mike Kuhn of Down the Byline and was a member of
the KCW Juniors U-19 team two years ago that took 2nd place at the U.
The new St. Louis team name, logo, coach and the director of player development were all introduced
yesterday. AC St Louis is the name. The logo you can see to the side. The coach is Claude Anelka,
brother of Nicolas Anelka.The director of player development is Francisco Filho, who worked with
Cristiano Ronaldo at Manchester United and at the French national academy for almost 30 years.
If Tuesday's Champions League was the wildly unpredictable and younger older sibling, Tuesday's was
the safer, more mature, more conservatively dressed older brother. The first grouping of games was
full of mischief and slightly stunning scorelines, and the second matchups have everybody thinking
"I knew that would happen why didn't I bet on it?
There are certain expectations in a successful locker room, and according to England manager Fabio
Capello in an interview with The Sun, it starts with having respect for the group.
Capello said: "I don't accept lack of respect. That means be on time, respect the dressing-room
code and table manners.
A lot of my posts have been on hold while I was finishing up a project for a course that I was
taking. Here's one of them -- a roundup of playoff action from the leagues in Central America.
Marathón won their eighth league championship after defeating Motagua 2-1 on aggregate in the
Honduran Apertura final played on 22/25 November.
A report locally suggests that Persebaya coach Danurwindo's position is safe. For now.
I hope so. Persebaya this season have been playing some wonderful, attacking football. Early on
that cost them heavily as their defence was obviously being coached by a retired kamikaze
pilot.
But things have tightened up recently at the back and the last three games have seen them concede
just one goal.
It's non soccer related but I couldn't resist posting this trailer. This is my favorite
Christmas movie! I love when TBS plays the 24 hour marathon of "A Christmas Story" on Christmas
Eve! My brother and I always start watching it on Christmas Eve night, fall asleep, wake up super
early the next morning to see what Santa brought us (LOL when we were younger, now we sleep in a
bit) and then after our excitement settled down we would be right at the same spot in the movie so
we could finish it!
We love Rafael for...
1. Assisting Wayne Rooney's goal.
2. Celebrating the assist as though he'd scored a goal himself.
3. Scoring a goal himself.
4. Dashing over to his brother to share the glory with him.
5. Getting stuck in whenever given the opportunity.
One of his best games in a United shirt.
