I hope some lessons were learned
After Wednesday’s Pan Pacific matches in Hawaii, every report and commentary, weather traditional media or blogger, wrote off LA and were ready to give Houston the title. I can’t wait to see what they are writing today.
You can’t judge a team my only one match. Comparing the over all results, LA were the second best team on the islands…they only lost by one goal to Osaka while Houston were stuffed 6-1!!! Of course, there’s a long way to go this season. Who knows what the heck is gonna happen.
Bottom line for me is that Becks on the right is head and shoulders better than any other player in the league. Those kids in the middle spent the two recent matches figuring out how to get on the end of those crosses and put them away. The one kid (got the second goal) isn’t every going to forget how sweetly that strike came off his foot.
Like I Twitted (I think that’s the correct word…see the widget on the right) the other night, I’m not worried about Wednesdays performance. It was the first preseason game. Look how much improvement there was in just a couple of days.
I can’t wait for the season to start…and for LA to be at full strength. LA will be better this season…I’m just not gonna predict how much better. ![]()
Too bad the matches couldn’t attract more fans.

The Pan games are getting a little heat at my soccer community SoccerP.com. But I agree that Becks looks good.
ok, so Becks looks good; but how did he play?
Only 90 minutes.
