At this point its pretty simple, if we don’t score we won’t win. This was a game in which the ref, “let ’em play,” and New England was never going to win a shoving match. It may still be too early to evaluate this version of the Revs. However, achievements pushed further towards an undefined […]

Alright, first I’ll admit I’ve been lazy. I failed to come out with a preview for the Crew match, but in my defense I was working a lot this week. It didn’t take away from the fantastic form United has been in at RFK Stadium this year. In arguably the worst stadium situation in Major […]

The Union and Impact meet today in a battle of two teams on the playoff bubble, and both have played well in recent weeks, which makes today’s matchup all the more tantalizing. Last week, the Union had a thrilling comeback over the New England Revolution at home, which gave them a 4-1-0 record in their […]

The biggest Revs story this week, one of the biggest in the entire league, saw Shalrie Joseph depart for Chivas USA in a trade that primarily brings our Revs salary cap flexibility. We also receive a 2nd round draft pick this off-season – which I’m sure Shalrie will do his best to push down in […]

Everything was set up for the Dynamo to get to the top of the East. They’d won 4 straight and with an unbeaten record at home, this was the chance to show the league just how good they are. Especially at BBVA Compass Stadium. Labeled the “Downtown Showdown” the Dynamo were ready and they came […]

The Montreal Impact gave the New York Red Bulls a strong wake up call last weekend as they were handed a second half beat down and a 3-1 loss on the road. The defense was confused, the midfield was stagnant and New York was lucky enough to not get shutout thanks to a bit of […]

Real Salt Lake won a tight match last Friday, edging Vancouver 2–1 at Rio Tinto Stadium. Now RSL will look to take their modest 2-game win streak abroad as they face 2012 Costa Rican champions C.S. Herediano in their opening contest of this year’s CONCACAF Champions League tournament. The claret and cobalt were happy to […]

With two games played between the sides already this year, both going in Chivas’ favor, The Goats lined up at the JELD-WEN Field on Saturday night looking to make it three wins out three against their […]

Well, that was a frustrating experience. Despite more evidence of our Revs’ 2012 improvements, we lost to the Philadelphia Union Sunday evening. New England’s current place in the Eastern Conference standings, penultimate place, and this game in particular remind me of 2011. While I begrudgingly, and figuratively, try to swallow this bitter pill I will […]

Sunday New England will visit the Philadelphia Union. It might be too much to hope that Philly could feel an All Star hangover and gift our Revs a result. If you are curious about how the union’s year has gone listen to the latest episode of #TRAP with “mid-season” reports from all teams including Total-MLS Philly […]

This is the only time the two teams will face each other in regular season this year. The Chicago Fire (9-7-4) […]

Prior to the month of June the same questions were being asked of FC Dallas and the Galaxy. Namely, most would ask, “When on earth will this awful form end?” Bruce Arena’s Galaxy, unlike Hyndman’s FCD, found points and has strung together a series of excellent results after a midseason intervention in spite of a […]

Earlier this week, LA Galaxy played in a friendly against Tottenham Hotspur. Although it was only a friendly, LA players, especially the young players that we rarely get to watch, as well as the new players Brian Rowe and Marcelo Sarvas, were really impressive. This is exactly what LA fans wanted to see. Not only […]
