After losing six straight on the road, DC United are hoping their sluggish ways change as the New England Revolution travel to RFK Stadium tonight at 7:30pm. The key: maximize the opportunities and that is just what Dwayne De Rosario and company do. However, with De Rosario suffering a knee injury which could possibly place […]

Seattle hosted Chivas in the return leg of the fixture that saw the Sounders record their biggest away win in their history, and after a tough fought 1-1 draw away in Dallas, Sounders were looking to get back to winning ways. Seattle made 2 changes to the side that saw out a 1-1 against FC […]

Things were never going to get any easier for Chivas USA. After a run of miserable results, that have all but ended their hopes of making the playoffs, the fixture list threw up another game against one of the league’s in-form teams. After a 4-0 drubbing from San Jose, all the Goats could aim for […]

The Los Angeles Galaxy were not only able to win their third match of the week, but also secure their third clean sheet of the week. This was LA’s fourth straight win in all competitions. In their last four matches, LA has outscored their opponents 13-2. A huge difference from the beginning of the season, […]

Hello, Rapids faithful (and bystanders watching the Pids like a horrific accident you just can’t look away from)! Greetings from the bottom of the table! It feels about as good down here as you’d think it would. For those of you that missed the most recent step in our plunge to the very bottom, I’ll […]

My notes on the New England Revolution versus Philadelphia Union described the game as a snooze fest, a yawn-a-thon, and a contest marked more by turnovers than play makers. There are teams making moves in 2012 in MLS. The two teams that faced off in Gillette Stadium Saturday night are not among the league’s movers. There are […]

Chivas USA make the relatively short journey north on Sunday night to take on the Western Conference leaders the San Jose Earthquakes in an all-important, all Californian clash. Things could not be much different between the two sides at the moment, with San Jose looking to strengthen their hold on the top of the conference […]

They’ve won all 3 matches at Home Depot Center; 5-2 against Isidro Metapan, 2-0 against FC Dallas, and 4-0 against Puerto Rico Islanders. Next up for LA are the Vancouver Whitecaps. Most of LA’s starters were rested on Wednesday against Puerto Rico in […]

Wednesday night New England Revolution legend Shalrie Joseph returned to Gillette Stadium in more ways than one. The Revs road loss in Columbus before that Chivas USA game set a tone that might still be ringing in our ears. Saturday night the Philadelphia Union visit New England. The Revs recent games suggest that more than ebb and […]

The New York Red Bulls road woes were slightly put at ease with their lucky 1-1 draw at Livestrong Park against Sporting Kansas City. Now the Red Bulls (13-7-6, 4-7-3 on the road) head into RFK to take on a struggling DC United side to right a 4-1 thrashing NY took back in April. NY […]

Seattle headed to Carson, California after a 2-0 victory over the Vancouver Whitecaps, and were looking to make it four wins out of five. Seattle made one change to the team that won in the Cascadia Cup, with Alex Caskey making way for Fredy Montero to partner Eddie Johnson up top. And it was Seattle who […]

Sitting down to write this article, Sinatra’s “You’d Be So Easy To Love” came up on my iPod. “You’d be so easy to love, so easy to idolize all others above,” he croons, and I couldn’t help but laugh and shake my head at the delicious irony of the timing; the Rapids are not so […]

This game has unraveled a few of the remaining ideas we Revs fans had about our team. Rebuilding, of course we are. Flawed, sure, we aren’t yet a complete team. The major storyline I thought I had a grip on, though, was that we could defend reasonably well and lacked the offensive punch to finish […]

Rain cleared out of the Houston area making for a nice night at BBVA Compass Stadium. The result on the field however was very disappointing. The Dynamo let an early lead slip away and a late TFC equalizer meant just 2 points from 2 matches against TFC at home. You could just see the frustration […]
