You see, when a person is signed by someone, they play for that team.

In this case, when someone is “discovered” by a team, then why in the world would they train with an unrelated team?

I guess we can chalk this one up to convuluted MLS Rules, yet again.

Marmol is no longer our issue (unless we win some sort of bidding war). And life moves on . . .

The Neverending Story Continues.

In the latest from Lider Marmol and the Chicago Fire, Luis Arroyave is reporting that Chicago coach Dennis Hamlett has no intentions of giving up his chase for Marmols services (possibly pressed more so due to the Conde affair).

Osorios response?

“We’re giving ourselves a final week,” Osorio said after Tuesday’s practice. “If we can get the deal done, great. If not, we have to move on.”

We are finally seeing the end of this woefully long and aimless tale.

Hopefully, Chris Innes (whom has been impressive in training this week) will be the answer where Marmol was not (thank goodness we have other options!).
