Miami FC President Aaron Davidson was on WQAM 560 yesterday and spoke a little to the Big O about the new, yet to be named TOA League. He Speaks about Miami FC, Traffic Sports and the Miami World Cup bid.

Today has been a day to say the very least. The news from the TOA group that they are forming their own league certainly took over a lot of folks reading and writing today. I know it did for me as I am still going to be talking about it tonight and maybe more for the coming days. I have some more thoughts about it as well as some other items to discuss.

Has spiked due to the Elizabeth Lambert fiasco. My first post on the topic quickly zoomed to be the most read one on the blog. November's traffic is outpacing all prior months by a ridiculous margin despite my not having written much besides.
Anyway, that's the only reason I can think that people are now linking to the scrum in the high school girl's match in Rhode Island. Click to continue reading...

Traffic Sports director Fernando Clavijo has denied that any deal had taken place between USA Under-20 central defender Gale Agbossoumonde and Portugese club Sporting Braga. Click to continue reading...

Hi - I'm sure we're all settling in to see who the last playoff team is, so I just wanted to give some food for thought.
Under the current playoff format, fifth place teams are unbeaten in the first round. This is the third year out of three that it's happened.
Sixth place teams have no record in the playoffs yet. Click to continue reading...

Hey everyone, I'm settled in at a very rainy Toyota Park and the Fire and Chivas are almost set to kick off their all-important match. The Fire will be looking for a win or a tie to clinch the Eastern Conference's second seed in the upcoming playoffs but Chivas will be gunning for a win to take the lead in the tightly-packed Western Conference.

Nottingham Forest 1 Barnsley 0 There'll be a few people who made it home only to discover they'd missed a goal in the name of beating the traffic. I wonder if any of them also missed the probably slightly more monumental moment of Des Walker scoring his only competitive goal for the club? Some people [.

Still no real news. I hate international breaks, I really really really hate them.

The blog has been dead for a couple of days whilst we changed the server over so there will be less chance of it cutting out on us in times of high traffic, not that this blog will be appealing to the masses out there.

A record field of over 2,000 runners will take part in this Sunday's annual 10k road race in Southend.
It starts at 10.30am from Southchurch Park in Thorpe Bay. The current race records are 28m 49s (men) and 33m 18s (women). The course is virtually flat and is mostly run along the seafront. Click to continue reading...

Things have been changing fast and furious for Tony Taylor of late, as the former college star has signed with Traffic Sports, and is now starring in Egypt as he looks for a permanent home in Europe. Click to continue reading...

Arsenal now have 6 points from two Champions League group-phase matches.
I quite enjoyed the match.
They lined up like this:
Arshavin Van Persie Rosicky
Diaby Song Cesc
Clichy Vermaelen Gallas Eboue
Mannone
There's a lot of good players in that line-up, and Olympiacos were on the ropes for the full 90 minutes. Click to continue reading...

In recent weeks, one of the biggest figures in American youth soccer has been Fernando Clavijo who has moved on to become a director of the Brazilian based company Traffic Sports since leaving his position as head coach of Colorado Rapids. Click to continue reading...

First off, September has been the busiest month in terms of traffic here at WFW. Both of the previous two weeks have resulted in new records for hits (beginning with the host switch in July 2008), and I want to thank everybody who has linked or retweeted my posts in this time. For those of you who have discovered this site because of the Springsteen-related content, welcome, and, although this blog isn't entirely dedicated to Springsteen, I do hope you'll become a regular reader and commenter.

All it takes is one weekend and so many crazy stories come out, many of them sad, many of them bizarre.
First off, here's a ref giving some heckling fans the finger. He later provided this quote:

"I let myself get provoked by the verbal insults of the fans and was dragged down to making an unsporting gesture.

Surely none of you really thought that Debreceni were going to present Liverpool with any obstacles. For the vast majority of the match it was all one way traffic against the whipping boys of the group.
Yet that didn't translate into us scoring lots of goals. Lucas, Kuyt, and Benayoun all had very good games, but it was a lacklustre performance from the rest of the lads. Click to continue reading...

If there is one person who will always have a rant at Arsenal its Tony Cascarino. The former Chelsea striker is the first one to jump on the bash Arsenal band-wagon. It is his job, but with Cascarino it is always one way traffic.

Â

When we sold Adebayor and Toure, Cascarino was the first to jump on the anti-Arsenal bandwagon.

Last year I covered a huge amount of matches in the Champions League last season. This took me a lot of time, much more than I expected, and it crowded out a number of other activities from my life. The posts did get me a lot of traffic as CONCACAF's website didn't have a live update feature. This season the official CCL website is much improved, but they still don't have live updates.

The Panther's took off on Monday morning for England where they will be touring and playing a series of games against local opponents as part of their preseason training this year.

On March 29 this year before a CAF qualifier against Malawi, 22 fans died in a stampede trying to get into the stadium and another 150 were injured.

In its wake FIFA just issued measures that would ensure better crowd control reducing the seating capacity of Houphouët-Boigny Stadium in Abidjan by approximately half to about 20,000 spectators.

Duane, I just wanted to follow up with a big thank you after you decided to talk traffic smack when I so generously linked to and discussed one of your articles. For starters, you taught me how to love again. And second, the six page views you sent me sextupled my traffic for the day. Since I'm so desperate for attention, that really made my day.

With the sale of André Santos to Fernerbahçe and the injury to Sergio Escudero, Corinthians have included youngster, Dodô, in their squad to face Vitória on Thursday.

The 17-year-old left back is widely believed to have been bought by Manchester United. However, my sources at Traffic have told me that the club has yet to make a decision on the Brazil Under 17 player.
