I’ve been having a lot of fun–maybe too much–winding up my English friends ever since the World Cup draw in December. To be honest, the best thing about playing England in the first round of the next month is listening to their over-confidence and giving them grief on how little they really know about the sport of soccer in the US.

If there was ever proof needed that of any sport, soccer is the one in which a single player can’t make a huge difference. For 90 minutes (ok, 70 and the post game) we heard Bratos and co talk about David Beckham, his impact, his career and Grant Wahl’s book.

Mr. Spice,
I don’t know if your well paid advisers have told you this or not but, we aren’t buying your bull shit this time around. You say one thing, yet your actions point to something very different. Fool me once….actions not words…and several other cliches come to mind.
Here’s the thing, you sell tickets and shirts. Any club in the world would love the money you bring in from that. However, as we discovered last season, you are nothing without a great cast around you. You became frustrated with the lack …

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times; it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness; it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity; it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness; it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair; we had everything before us, we had nothing before us; we were all going directly to Heaven, we were all going the other way.

(Just a quick warning, this is a long ramble with no direction…just thoughts coming out so read at your own risk. I promise, my next post will the thought through before I start typing.)
Well, my NCAA Bracket is doing my head in. I guess it would have helped if I had watched a few games this season. I haven’t seen any and don’t know what’s going on except that my Alma Mater didn’t even come close to making the field–though the women are in.

I’ve really done my best to keep quiet here and leave my comments to simple tweets letting the media do must of the story telling. After all, it appears you, your ‘people’ and those in charge at AC Milan seemed to negotiate your end of the deal to stay in Italy via that medium. However, now that you’ve finally come on US TV and told your story to us (remember us, the LA fans?) I just have to vent a bit.

If you haven’t been following the tug-of-war between Milan and LA for the Spiced One, then you probably won’t be reading this. If you have been following it, like me, you are probably sick of the whole thing. Ok, that’s an assumption but I’m pretty confident it’s accurate.
This whole thing is silly. Milan and Beckham have been trying to bully LA into selling him for next to nothing. LA, and rightly so, have called out Milan (though not Spice Guy) for their BS and labeled the offer of US$3million ridiculous. …

I actually heard Garber say that the International Calendar issue needs to be addressed. It’s about time. Too bad he then followed that with a bunch of reasons why they can’t do it. At least now the no longer have the excuse that MLS teams aren’t the primary tenants in their stadiums. He’s made a lot happen, I’m disappointed he can’t get this to happen.
Something else he needs to look at is the exodus we are starting to see again of the top players during the off-season. A few years …

Forget all this Beckham-mania. How ’bout Fish? Not only did he score all 3 in the win the other night…look at the run he made to be there to finish the third one. That’s not the Fish we’ve seen the last couple of seasons.

OK, it was a preseason friendly against a make-shift team from China…but I still love the effort Fish gave on that goal.

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 …
