Re Entry draft targets
Ah the scrap heap of MLS. Guys who were once counted on by their teams now discarded because next year's salary is to high. So who should the Fire be considering to take off the scrap heap? Join me after the jump where I will talk about phases, players, and make fun of Baggio Husidic. It will be...
DC United lose to Colorado Rapids, continue to lack chemistry
DC United had not lost a match to the Rapids at RFK Stadium since 1999. Well DC United hasn't had a team this bad since 1999, so I guess this is fitting. Something is still missing from this United team. Well a couple things I guess. We all know the team is missing a striker and a central...
Time for a change
DC United is 0-5 and its time for a change. Changing the players isn't entirely realistic until the transfer window opens in July. Changing the head coach seems inevitable, though probably still a couple months away from happening. Changing the general manager is something that should be...
DC United lose to New York Red Bulls, remain winless in regular season
I spent the first quarter or so of the match wondering where this United team had been during the month of April. Constant pressure, dominant possession, and clearly the better of the two teams. But ultimately, the result was the same as all those before. DC only came to play in one half, and...

DC United lose 3-2, continue to show incremental improvement
For the first time this season, there are positives and negatives to take away from this match. As opposed to, you know, just the latter. The biggest positive was undoubtedly United's fanbase. In a vast football stadium with 34,870 soccer fans in attendance, it was traveling supporters from DC...
Post-post-match (Week 2): All bark, no bite
The capitulation in Kansas City pulled the rug out from under United fans, players, and even the coaching staff. While a win was far from certain, no one predicted the lifeless showing DC produced. However, such limp performances come with a twisted silver lining: You can't really do much worse....
DC United lose 2-0, disappoint over 20,000 fans at RFK for home opener
I didn't have too hard of a time finding reasons to justify the first loss. On a tiny soaked field with a backline that had hardly yet been introduced to one another, it seemed natural that United would struggle. Not tonight though. Now we're only two weeks in and I'm already out of...
DC United wins Carolina Challenge Cup, but questions still remain
With their 2-0 defeat of the Charleston Battery on Saturday night, DC United captured their first ever Carolina Challenge Cup championship, and they hope that it will not be the only piece of silverware they earn in the 2010 season. If you believe that history is a strong predictor of the future,...
DC United defeats Toronto FC 1-0 in their second meeting of the preseason
DC United is in the driver's seat to win their first ever Carolina Challenge Cup, having now earned a full 6 points from 2 matches, with only a match against the lower division Battery remaining. United took a slightly different approach in this match, choosing to feature a lineup consisting...
