DC United roster moves: Luciano Emilio and Stephen King IN, Tiyi Shipalane and Lyle Adams OUT
DC United made several roster moves this week heading into our big showdown and the start of the Atlantic Cup this afternoon against the New York Red Bulls. The one that's getting all the headlines is the re-acquisition of the league's 2007 MVP Luciano Emilio. United's leading scorer in each of...
Regular Games Missed
In General Manager Dave Kasper's interview with the Soccer Insider earlier this week, he made some comments that were very unpopular among fans. Including the cliche "we're not an 0-4 team" and "It's tough to miss the guys we are missing right now". The general theme of his conversation seemed to...
DC United's (almost) final roster! (for now)
With DC United's opening match less than 24 hours away, you would think that all of their roster questions would be answered by now. Well that's just not the case! United still has just a few more decisions to make, including who will earn the final developmental roster spot, and who will be...
DC United All-Decade Team: Starting Right Back
No need for a lengthy introduction to this post. I said prior to the previous poll that we have no automatic selections to the DC United All-Decade Team. But I think there are a couple players who would be worthy of being selected automatically. One has already been decided, another one should...
Please welcome Jordan Graye
It was an awful long wait, but DC United added some much needed defensive depth in the MLS Superdraft today by selecting UNC senior Jordan Graye with the 55th overall pick. Not only is United sticking with the trend of selecting ACC products, but Graye also attended Dematha HS and won a national...
DC United tie vs Toronto FC, 3-3
What an incredible contrast from the previous match. Even though they both ended in ties, this was a much more inspired DC United club, playing against a much more inspired opponent. The match against Kansas City earlier in the week saw two offensive subs (Gomez and Emilio) enter the match and have...
DC United win vs FC Dallas, 2-1
DC United looked like the better team for all 90 minutes tonight, but the first 60 sure were scary. Even though they had threatened to score so many times, and it seemed hard to believe that they would end the night with a bagel, it was hard not to be nervous about witnessing another lost point or...
DC United win at NY Red Bulls, 3-2
This certainly felt like another one of those games where we outplay our opponent, but settle for a tie, or worse. Yet somehow, for the second week in a row, DC scores in stoppage time to secure the victory. That's four points that we've earned now in the final five minutes.1. Great to see Santino...
What I missed
I've been pretty busy with house additions and family functions the past couple weeks, so without the capability to DVR matches that frustatingly are not on television, my reactions to these past two matches are coming only from video highlights and the written opinions of other fans, bloggers, and...
New Years Resolutions for 2009
Open Cup victory aside, 2008 was not a very memorable year for DC United. Surely there's something that the front office and coaching staff can learn from their mistakes during that forgettable year. So in stealing a page from Fullback's playbook, here's a little holiday themed post. The following...
