No real theme to speak of this morning, other than the weather getting properly nice. So, yeah weather!
DCU fans groaning about FedEx double-header seat assignments | Soccer Insider
I won't lie - I'm one of the folks groaning about this. As much as I dislike going from the front of the 200 section to the back of the 400s, I'm actually more annoyed by the fact that no attempt was made to put me anywhere near my seat-mates (who have their own STH accounts), meaning I'm not going to be watching the game with the people I usually do. Hopefully we'll all be able to move closer to each other (and the field) once most of the stadium empties out after the Spain-El Salvador game and before D.C. United and the Crew take the field.
Team of the Week | MLSsoccer.com
Sharing only to ask if there's anybody here who would have put Andrew Farrell in their Team of the Week this week. His team lost 2-0 to a team that's struggled to score for more than a year. The first goal was created on his flank, and he was nowhere near anything for the clincher in stoppage time, allowing Chris Rolfe to ghost into the space he arguably should have been covering. Even if the rest of his game had been nearly flawless, was it that bad of a week for fullbacks?
