Saturday was another historic day for the Montreal Impact with the opening of their renovated Stade Saputo, taking on one of the best sides in all of MLS (Seattle) & handily beating them 4-1. I think that’s a dream come true for any IMFC supporter. Things got started early, in the 18th minute, when Felipe […]

Aside from exploring every possible way to destroy Florida’s greatest export (it’s their greatest imports that are illegal), Dallas has earned a great reprieve in preparation for Saturdays match against orange Houston.

The Crew have had a season like many seasons before, marred with injuries. This recent international break should help the Crew get back to being a healthy team. Though they have lost William Hesmer and Tommy Heinemann, others have been able to step up and take their place, most notably Andy Gruenebaum and Aaron Schoenfeld. […]
