Audio: Ben Olsen at Media Day

We are going to try some things here at B&RU, and with the help of (and thanks to) Steven Streff, we have audio of D.C. United coach Ben Olsen speaking with the press today. You may have read some of the quotes today or even seen video of Olsen on newscasts (yeah yeah, I know, I know), but here is some context. This feature may change, increase, decrease, whatever. Consider this the Dark Magus of Black and Red United.

He talked about the current financial landscape, the physical shape of the boys in the locker room, injury updates on folks like Bill Hamid, and thoughts on new acquisitions like Markus Halsti, Jairo Arrieta and Dan Metzger, and on newly minted Designated Player Fabian Espindola or current Designated Player Eddie Johnson.

Anyway, enough of my blathering, go listen to it:
