Und wieder einmal muss ich mich hier als Liebhaber von Weitschusstoren outen. Und wieder einmal
kann ich meine Liebhaberei mit einem fantastischen und gleichermaßen kuriosem Tor untermalen. Dem
amerikanishcen Studenten Ryan Rosenbaum von der SMU-Universität gelang aus 95 Yards (knapp 87
Meter) dieser Sonntagsschuss!

Before David Beckham popularised this art, goals from the halfway line were spectacular but rare.
Since then, there have been more and more outrageous goals scored by really talented
footballers.
Just recently, a college university freshman from SMU scored a 95-yard goal which bounced over the
opposition goalkeeper and into net.

SMU Freshman hits 95-yard Soccer Goal @ Yahoo! Video
I live in America where soccer is still a second-string sport, but even the most controversial but
popular American sports blogs can't ignore this fluke goal from a college soccer player at Southern
Methodist University in Dallas, TX.

Wow, first someone sends me a link to SMU player scoring a goal from 95 yards out, then
JustinSaysThis on Twitter sends me a link to this goal Talley Hall scores for Houston a few days
ago! BTW Talley Hall is the goalie!
Wonder what is in the water in Texas these days???
Love the commentary on this one at the end when they start figuring out who scored!

SMU's Ryan Rosenbaum scores a huge goal! That is awesome!
Believe in it!

P.S. Big shout to Freddy Coba for the heads up on this one! As he says,
"GOOOOOOALAZOOOOOO!!!!!"

ranked #16 in the nation) on Wednesday.

One thing I like to do before I go on any trip is make sure my place is decently clean for my
return. Well in the case of this past week for my wedding/honeymoon I was all prepared on that
level except for when it came to getting back in the swing of things for soccer stuff. I came back
into town this past weekend and saw a slew of random scores in Major League Soccer.

Anyone want to guess where Daniel Hernandez played in college?

3rd Degree 09 September @ 01:26 PM EST
As we reported last week, or more specifically as Hernandez blabbed last week and we passed on, FC
Dallas has now offically signed ex-SMU and ex-Galaxy/Mutiny/MetroStars/Revs midfielder Daniel
Hernandez. Hernandez told season ticket holders last Wednesday that he was signing with the team,
so it's unclear what the hold up was on the deal.

Major League Soccer veteran Daniel Hernandez has rejoined his college coach Schellas Hyndman as a
member of FC Dallas. Hernandez has spent time with the Galaxy, Mutiny, Metrostars, and Revolution
along with stints in the Mexican Liga with Necaxa, Puebla, Jaguares, and most recently a return
stay with Necaxa.

Looks like Schellas Hyndman wanted another former SMU player on his roster...this is almost as
ridiculous as the Bruno Guarda trade, with the only real difference being that Ihemelu has at least
played in MLS.
FC DALLAS PRESS RELEASE
FRISCO, Texas (Monday, August 31, 2009) – FC Dallas General Manager Michael Hitchcock announced
today that team has acquired defender Ugo Ihemelu from the Colorado Rapids in exchange for defender
Drew Moor, the team's natural second round pick in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft and allocation money.

WVHooligan 31 August @ 01:16 PM EST
The Colorado Rapids are hoping to reach the playoffs and some defensive help should go a long
way in correcting some of their inconsistent issues. Today they have traded with FC Dallas for
defender Drew Moor in exchange for Ugo Ihemelu, according to both clubs.
The Rapids also pick up a second-round pick and allocation money in the deal.

After a run of good form, FC Dallas came back down to earth, falling 2-0 to the Columbus Crew. Once
again, a set piece situation was the downfall for Dallas as Vampire Dario (he fears the cross) fell
victim to a Chad Marshall header.
Comments about the match quickly fall by the wayside as the worst play-by-play man in sports, Brad
Sham, takes a beating from fans for yet another abysmal performance behind the microphone showing
he knows shit about soccer and should just stick to kissing Jerry Jones' ass.

The fallout from the Dynamo crushing FC Dallas 3-1 on Saturday continues...
From Post: FCD 1, Houston Dynamo 3
"The players are miserable. The fans are miserable. Both true. None of that counts. This exists for
only one reason. Schellas played nurse maid to one of the Hunt's while he was at SMU and they are
paying him back for changing his diaper and wiping his nose.

MLS Daily 05 September @ 09:26 PM EST
Andre Rocha was just beginning to find his place in the FC Dallas midfield. On loan from FCD's
partner club Atletico Paranaense, Rocha had stepped up and notched six assists on the season,
leading the team in that category.
Then FC Dallas made a coaching switch.
Schellas Hyndman took over for Steve Morrow in late May, and since then the Brazilian playmaker has
found himself on the field less and less, with the lack of playing time starting to get to Rocha.
