Today, the Baltimore Business Journal reported that Baltimore Mayor Sheila Dixon has asked the
Maryland Stadium Authority to study the possibility of building a stadium for DC United in the
city.
Up front, I'll tell you that I don't think such a plan has any chance of ever breaking ground.
It's pretty much unarguable that the game best suited to the (more or less) uniquely American "All
Star Game" construct is baseball.
Virtually everything in that game, with the exception of some defensive technicalities (and even
most of those are universal) is done individually: one guy pitches the ball, another guy tries to
hit it, a third guy tries to catch it.
After graduating 12 seniors from last year's team including Mr. Soccer, Whitney Browne, and
All-Tourney selections, Lucas Houng and George Kawalawu and with just three starters returning from
last season's state championship team, Osseo High School are definitely regrouping. Those returning
starters are seniors Ahmad Bah – State All Tourney, and defenseman Jason Peterson and Junior
defenseman Luke Vangeest.
Totino-Grace 3-0 St. Louis Park
Eagles believe getting the first goal helps to motivate them to score
more.
The second game of the night at Hopkins HS saw the #1 seeded Totino-Grace Eagles (17-3-0) take
on the St. Louis Park Orioles (12-8-1).
Who'd a thunk? I woke up at about 4:30 this morning to the sound of teeming rain -- and
wondered how our young plants are keeping themselves from sliding down the hill. Really. As the
light returns, I see that everything looks pretty much intact out there -- albeit waterlogged.
Not so intact are the egos of the Red Sox this morning, I'm thinking, as they blew a 10-1 lead
and lost to the Orioles.
