.....but I will.
LA hasn't won in 11 matches. The last time we tasted victory was a couple of weeks before I left
for Spain! We were in first place at that moment. Now we're tied for last. Our coach Ruud Gullit
quit the team because the American system was too restrictive for the way he wanted to coach.
The Galaxy looked sharper than they had in weeks last Saturday against the Revolution, which
bodes well for the run they will have to make in order to get into the playoffs. However, this
Saturday MLS has, in its infinite wisdom, decided to schedule league matches concurrently with a
FIFA World Cup qualifier date.
Here we go - a depleted Galaxy team versus Salt Lake's finest.
Luis thinks former Galaxy player Clint Mathis can still do some damage. I'm thinking it might be
Robbie Findley who hurts LA, but we'll see.
RSL: Nick Rimando, Chris Wingert, Nat Borchers, Jamison Olave, Ian Joy, Will Johnson, Kyle
Beckerman, Javier Morales, Clint Mathis, Kenny Deuchar, Fabian Espindola
LA: Josh Wicks, Chris Klein, Sean Franklin, Troy Roberts, Mike Randolph, Eduardo Dominguez, Josh
Tudela, Greg Vanney, Bryan Jordan, Edson Buddle, Alan Gordon.
Last year, Chicago destroyed LA's playoff hopes in the final game of the year. This year, they
could pretty much kill the Galaxy off - a little earlier this time around.
LD talks about doing "internal work". Sounds like colonics or something. LD gives a nod
to Hispanic Heritage month, saying those were his soccer teammates when he was growing up.
Admit it. You wrote off the Los Angeles Galaxy, didn't you?
Bruce Arena took over too late to fix the problems this season, you figured.
David Beckham is worn down from too much travel, and Landon
Donovan can't do it alone. You're not even sure who's playing in goal for the Galaxy now
-- the young prospect is hurt, the guy with the big hair didn't look so hot, and they just called
up this guy from the USL.
