Red Bulls 2009 Schedule

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 8 Comments

Quick observations as I am swamped in paper work:

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 6 Comments

Feel my pain, and witness Dave Van den Bergh, wearing similar colors to the Red Bulls training outfit, but somehow, representing a different team. This seems wrong.

Red Bull Arena Won’t Open Until 2010

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 13 Comments

What more can be said other than the Arena will not be built in time?! Honestly, do I have to post anything else? Do the details matter?
