Let's be completely honest here: we got ahead of ourselves when it came to the recovery of Charlie
Davies. Charlie Davies got ahead of himself when it came to the recovery of Charlie Davies. All the
faith, belief, and hope in the world couldn't heal Charlie, and turn him back into the footballer
he should be, faster than nature would allow.
Union
Goal.com's head-to-head preview of Saturday's match against Chivas USA has the Philly guy
predicting a 2–0 Union win and the Chivas guy a 3–1 Union win. Our preview predicts a 2–1 win
if Jonathan Bornstein plays, a 3–1 win if he doesn't.
The Daily News takes a closer look at what the Union will be doing with the $50K it won for high
school soccer in Chester.
Let's start today off with a bang: Eric Wynalda has been named Director of International
Operations for Mexican Segunda division side Murcielagos (that's the third division in Mexico).
Wynalda will scout players and try to facilitate player exchanges that will bring the talent to
Murcielagos that will move them up to the top.

Read the first line of the second paragraph in this bit on Charlie Davies (pronounced: Char-Lee
MUR-PHAY) from Boston.com. This is EXACTLY how the Thierry Henry-to-New York deal got started. And
as much as I hate to say it, his European career looks like it might end sooner than later.
CD9 to NER in 2011, I'm calling it (based on nothing) right now.
There are obviously people around the globe that stay awake twisting and turning in their beds
about real problems. Scientists fret if they'll ever discover a cure for cancer. Working middle
class folks wonder if they'll still have a job in the morning. Unfortunate people in impoverished
areas hope tomorrow will bring them a meal.
Will everyone relax and give Charlie Davies a break. Does anyone even
comprehend what he went through? The extent of damage that was done to his body? We all see
now that Bob Bradley was without a doubt correct in not taking the striker to South Africa
but big deal.
