Background: You knew I couldn't resist, didn't you? I have not hesitated to criticize MLS, Becks, the Gals, and� Alexi Lalas in the past. The Beckham Experiment has failed. The hypothesis was gravely flawed. The fallout� will be� crushing. MLS always said they would be different than the NASL.

During the Cold War, government advice was that, in the event of a nuclear strike, we should stay in our inner refuges for forty-eight hours and indoors for around ten to fourteen days, in order to allow radiation levels outside to drop to something approaching a "safe" level. It felt today as if we should still be in our inner sanctums as the fallout from yesterday's Manchester derby match fell around outside, infusing everything with the Premier League's favourite luminous green toxin, controversy.

"We were awful from opening kickoff and deserved everything we got." LA Galaxy coach Bruce Arena after his team's 6-3 home loss to FC Dallas.

Arena is not one to mince words. This is the third time the former U.S. Men's National Team coach has made our quote of the week (the first was June 1 when he spoke to his team's string of draws, the second July 13 in response to the well-publicized Landon Donovan/David Beckham fallout).

Big Story

The fallout from FIFA's ruling against Chelsea in the Kakuta case continues to dominate the headlines. Of course, it took that case for the British press to notice that several similar cases were also working their way through FIFA, and today it's Manchester City under the poaching spotlight, with French club Rennes accusing them of luring away teenager Jeremy Helan.

In what is normally a relatively quiet time over in Europe because of impending World Cup qualifiers, FIFA has announced that Chelsea will be banned from registering players until 2011.

Morning everyone.

The fallout has begun. For years and years Wenger has been subjected to the vilest of chants, as serious as any racial abuse, whenever we have made the trip to Old Trafford (and certain other grounds, too). The mainstream media occasionally give it a casual reference, but until yesterday it had never been properly addressed.
