Tomorrow at the Wizards Swope Park Training Complex, the team will announce their new head coach in
a press conference at 2:30 pm. There's been speculation on who the new head coach would be since
the end of the season. With many of the other favorites only recently finishing their season
(Preki), or still being in the playoffs (Spencer, Hamlett, Sarachan), I think the announcement is
not going to be very surprising.

Does Mo Johnston take vacations to active volcanoes? The surly Scotsman sure does love watching a
good blow-up doesn't he? News in TFC-world this afternoon is that a press conference has been
called for tomorrow where any number of things may be possibly announced. The two most valid
rumours swirling around involve striker/ bald messiah Danny Dichio and the other our favourite
defensive midfielder/ afro enthusiast Julian De Guzman.

Of course all is not lost providing we sort ourselves out pretty quickly. As Rafa mentioned in his
press conference the Bolton match now becomes a must win. Hard to believe the 4th match of the
season could be described as such but I wouldn't fancy falling 9 points behind Chelsea. Anyways,
some observations, both positive [.

portions since I know some of his Hungarian fans may listen in as well. Part 1 - Zoltán is
introduced, he is asked his expectations, why he chose to come play in the United Stated, to
compare his previous league to MLS play, what position is he training with the Wizards, is he still
following his

I will put the audio up from the press conference when Zoltán was introduced later today. It would
be up already but I goofed when I put it together so I have to rework it in awhile. It is long
(around 30 minutes) but has a lot of good info in it. In the mean time I just wanted to post this
so people could hear Zoltán speak and know how to pronounce his name.

Having made his English language comedy debut with his first press conference as Chelsea manager
by joking that he didn't know if John Terry would be captain of Chelsea this season, Carlo
Ancelotti kept the laughs coming after his 2-0 win over Inter Milan. When asked about the situation
surrounding Chelsea's interest in Andrea Pirlo, the man with the magic eyebrow said:
"There is not a situation because Pirlo now is a player of Chelsea er, of Milan.

The fall out from the Wizards departure from the US Open Cup continues. Today at the Wizards weekly
press conference, Coach Onalfo made his feelings about the game and the deciding penalty known.
Onalfo pulled no punches in the discussion either calling Seattle striker, Fredy Montero a punk and
said "it was devastating to get the penalty call in the 90th minute.

Coach Onalfo normally discusses the previous and upcoming games at his weekly press conference.
This week the loss at Seattle on a controversial late PK call obviously still angered him. I cut
out just the Seattle game comments for people to hear.At one point he refers to Montero as a punk.
He later says the player can not be blamed but I think his first instinct is correct.

Ahead of the biggest game in their history, USA coach Bob Bradley and striker Landon Donovan
probably had better things to do with their time than to sit down and answer pointless questions
from journalists with nothing but Michael Jackson and Barack Obama on their minds.
Landon Donovan deals with the first question as best he can but is quite visibly stunned when asked
what impact Michael Jackson's death has had on the USA team and would they be paying a tribute.
