Interview: Big Mac Kandji

By: Dave Martinez | 6 Comments

It is nearly the end of the year and I have two small goals in mind for this blog: put up a new years wrap up, and unload on some old articles and interviews I may have had pending.
Nearly 2 months ago, I interviewed the Red Bulls newest acquisition, Macoumba Kandji, in downtown Manhattan. [...]

Defense Depth Takes Another Hit: Jimenez, OUT!

By: Dave Martinez | 8 Comments

Here is a bit of news I didn’t want to wake up to the day after Christmas: Brian Lewis reports Diego Jimenez is gone. Another little surprise; he was on a 6 month loan. Wack.
A complete steal at 17k, Jimenez has taken advantage of being the anchor of the Red Bulls defense [...]

Weekend Poll: Bring back Van Den Bergh!

By: Dave Martinez | 3 Comments

As Ives so eloquently detailed, Van Den Bergh’s salary was partially paid for by the KC Wizards since the time he was traded over in 2006. If the Bulls are to re-sign Van Den Bergh, they must pay the full salary, which would equal to roughly a 110k hit on the salary cap. [...]

Guns n Roses: Chinese Democracy CD Review

By: Dave Martinez | No Comments

Before I put up this weekends poll (which is a goodie), I have to stray off the world of soccer and into one of my other loves in life – music.

El Zurdo Rojas Hearts NY (and MLS)

By: Dave Martinez | 15 Comments

I love hearing the offseason quotes of MLS new comers. Depending on the person, the critique usually falls within three categories; glowing approval, dismal disappointment or vast ambiguity. So, while I was trolling the spanish news outlets, I picked this Jorge Rojas interview up from Correo Del Caroni out of Venezuela.
Now, unlike [...]

Holla At The Lobo!

The weekend poll has quickly become a favorite of mine; it keeps my finger on the readers pulse, and is an easy way to put up content without all that much effort! This week, you guys spoke loud and clear; give Amado a chance!
Now, to assume TFC is looking to move the Honduran stand [...]
