FanShots
This has nothing to do with United, or even soccer, but it's a nice little reminder of what we can do as fans, and how our passion can help the players.
Whatever Happened to Christian Gomez?
MlSsoccer.com has been doing a bunch of these, and most of them seem to be about former United players. This one is about Gomito, along with this money quote:
"With Jaime [Moreno], Ben Olsen and other experienced players, we had control over that team," he recalls. "D.C. was a top team and we would go everywhere expecting to win. Teams would go to Washington covered in fear. They would line up with all their men playing defense because they had so much respect towards us."
We picked up Danny Cruz
What I remember about Danny Cruz from last season is that he struck me as a petulant little prick. Well, now he's our petulant little prick, and more midfield depth in preparation for Olympic/injury absences to the wings.
MLS Mock SuperDraft 2012
United gets pick #7 in this year's draft and 2 out of the 3 experts at mlssoccer.com think they are going to take Tyler Polak (left back) out of Creighton. I'm hoping United picks a striker that finish of plays set up by Wolff. What do you think Internet?
Luciano Emilio Wants MLS Return
I don't think there's a place for him in DC United anymore, but this former MLS MVP and Golden Boot winner told an MLS writer he'd like another crack at playing in the league where he had his greatest success.

Bill Hamid Called Into USMNT Camp
This is no longer a surprise development, but DC United goalkeeper Bill Hamid is in Jurgen Klinsmann's January squad for a lengthy training camp and matches against Venezuela (January 21st) and Panama (January 25th).
New U.S. Women's Soccer Interview: Abby Wambach
New interview courtesy of DC 101...
Harrisburg receives Conor Shanosky on loan from D.C. United.
One can only presume that with Simms anchored at CDM and Morsink slowly coming back, but FYI nonetheless.
I've noticed that there is some discrepancy over Red Bulls acronyms. Some people abbreviate it NYRB. Others RBNY. So to solve this little mystery I went to the Red Bulls website, only to discover that they don't even know what to call themselves. The name appears both ways right at the top of the page. Way to keep a cohesive brand identity, guys.
I think the only solution is to revert back to the old name, so I'm looking forward to this weekend's game against the MetroScum.
