Spring is in the Air, and so is MLS
Major League Soccer and the Seattle Sounders, got the season off to a fine start this week. Vancouver granted an expansion franchise, The Seattle dominates and destroys the expansion team from NY, ok sorry, but they played like one. Then Friday Don goes down the road and awards another expansion franchise for Portland. Eight teen teams and counting now. Philadelphia starts next year then Vancouver and Portland in 2011.
The only thing better that could happen to MLS is David stays in Italy,oh ya, that is happening. They received money for Davy boy to stay away, this is awesome. Drew Carey made the rounds and called LA an expansion team. Didn't realize Drew was that up to date on his soccer. Finally a celebrity that loves soccer, and has put his money where is mouth is. Gotta love it.
Well my predictions last year sucked to put it mildly, so I am not going to make detailed descriptions. Playoff teams from the west, RSL, Houston and Seattle. From the east, Columbus, NY, DC, Chicago and Toronto. Finals Columbus and DC. I really think bringing Christian back will work, better than all five of those Argentinians combined. Yes I see DC coming out of the West as the 5th place team. I see a slow start and coming on in October. Columbus will be able to pick up where they left off year. The winner, one for the thumb.
Freddy Montero just might be the steal of the off season, although hard to argue with Kasey Keller as well. Look for Emilio to resurface again this year, although twelve goals isn't bad, now that he will be getting some service once again from Christian, and defenses will have to worry about the DC offense again.
Bennie is back, Vasco wishes the new dad a wonderful 2009 season, MLS best eleven, and another hat trick against NY this year. Last year proved you are United's MVP and the reason why you are the only non Brasilian that I have a jersey of. I see a coaching career in your future, but let's not make it to soon, next decade would be fine.
Now if the Philadelphia franchise would just announce the crummy name they are going to go with, maybe I could add to my MLS jersey collection. Vasco is tired of the AC, FC, crap this is America we have brains, oh wait we elected Obama as president, maybe we don't. Americans like nicknames, and AC, FC don't work. Do you want to make this a soccer nation, or just service the hard core fans? Just my opinion. Lets go see United play, or lets go see FC play, which one works for you?
Enjoy tonight's FSC doubleheader, I know I will, and tomorrow a DC win, and Jamie becomes the first 100/100 man in MLS history. 99 assists and counting. Probably the finest player to ever play in MLS, no disrespect El Diablo, Jamie has been part of all twelve trophies that DC has won. I love the Trophy case section on the new DC United website.
Enjoy the season, and remember give the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup some respect, MLS and the fans. Without Lamar Hunt we wouldn't have a league in this country, no disrespect USL, I do enjoy watching your teams as well. Watching an Open Cup game at the lower levels is an exciting game, MLS needs to start showing the Trophy the respect it deserves.
