from my honeymoon and MLS Cup is Sunday I didn't have any time to post this one ahead of time.
Having said that this week's guest on the Jared Montz Soccer Podcast is Sean Franklin.

Where is the marking?
Disappointing would be the best word to summed up tonight's game. The team lacked cohesion,
tenacity and showed no real desire to win the game. One could argue that after almost 2 weeks away
from each other and barely had the oppourtunity to train as a team lead to the dispirited
display.

By now everyone who has any connection to Ireland has had their say about the handball. Prime
Ministers, footballers including our own human wind turbine, and, on the Today programme yesterday
morning, A Rich Irish Bloke Who No One has Heard Of. My neighbour's Irish setter is in mourning.
That must be why he was [.

I like the Galaxy to beat Real Salt Lake.
I asked my friend Dan Loney, who is a huge Galaxy fan but hates David
Beckham like people who really hate things hate things, "Would you be conflicted if Becks
scored the game-winner Sunday night?"
Dan said, "HE OWES US.

The future of American soccer appears to be the past of American soccer.
It's being reported that the new breakaway league consisting of several former USL clubs has
registered the name North American Soccer League, apparently with the intent of using it at launch
next spring.
There are those of us old enough to remember the original NASL (if you're not, go here).

My good friend's wedding is tomorrow so this will be a very early match preview of our trip to
Sunderland. As it has been known for the past few days, RVP and Gibbs both will miss the game after
yet another injury return for an Arsenal player from an international break.

Just when we were beginning to wonder if this TOA league would really get off the ground with
just seven clubs they go and add two more. Yup, now they are up to nine as Inside Minnesota Soccer
has learned they have snatched two prime USL teams away with Tampa Bay rejoining the group and now
a new addition in Crystal Palace Baltimore.

According to the DC United news source the Soccer Insider Ben Olsen is now considering the
option of retirement. As the SI said, the idea was thrown around after last season with his 1
appearance last season.
Olsen is DC United. When you say DC United you think Ben Olsen. One would hope that when Olsen
does decide retirement is necessary, he will stay with the club in some capacity.

Holy Zombie Jesus, did a lot go down since the last time the Premier League kicked off a fortnight
ago. First and foremost, my assumed title chase between Chelsea and Arsenal got thrown a wicked
Barry Zito circa-2002 curveball. (Ok, for Brits, a wicked Googly.) Chelsea is going to have to play
at least a couple matches -- and almost certainly the Nov.

Thierry Henry's legacy will never be the same. Like when Brett Favre started his rope-a-dope with
retirement.
Both will forever be honored greats, but each will have a little negativity added to their
reputations.
There were all sorts of stories on the wire yesterday regarding Le Hand.

Two things to talk about this morning that affect my entire sports weekend. First, let me say
that I am very glad that my wife (who is going on a mission trip to a far-off land for about a
week) is not flying through France or Ireland to get there because right now someone is probably
screaming their head off in the streets of Ireland.
