The End Of The Osorio Era?

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 10 Comments

That was Juan Carlos Osorio after the FC Dallas game, and by all accounts, it looks like he had more on his mind than yet another loss.
Maybe this weeks summit in Austria is what weighed so heavily on him.
SBI reports Jeff Agoos and Erik Stover have been summoned to Austria to meet with Red Bull [...]

US Open Cup Preview: Red Bulls v. San Jose

By: Dave Martinez | Comments No Comments

Don’t expect any big names for tonights game folks (not like it matters since it won’t be televised). The struggling Red Bulls are taking on an equally inept San Jose side, as both teams hope to find a silver lining in this mire of frustration.
With both clubs primarily focused on righting the ship late [...]

All The Bull: Boca Trialists, Celades, Signings, More

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 1 Comment

First off, I have to acknowledge how much cooler it sounds to put a compilation of news stories up on a post and call them a “Link Dump” and not “All the Bull.” I have a lot to learn . . . .
This week, I am “dumping” a lot of stuff on ya’. [...]

TRANSFER TARGET: Albert Celades

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 4 Comments

Do you want a resume you can really sink your teeth into?
How about a starting central defender for a former La Liga side? How about a veteran of Real Madrid and FC Barcelona? How about a defender that has been a part of La Liga Championship teams!?
Meet Albert Celades, central midfielder, formerly of [...]

Why Trading Van Den Bergh Is A Good Idea

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 17 Comments

Before I attempt writing this post, I am going to have to break out my keys and dip into my military arsenal to prepare for the ensuing onslaught . . . .
- Life Vest? Check. Hey, you may want to drown me.
- Bullet proof vest? Check. Because bullets are everywhere [...]

The Centerback Options

By: Dave Martinez | Comments No Comments

Carlos Mendes resigned yesterday with the Red Bulls, and it is a good thing; he is a veteran of the team, who has become an all purpose defensive styled player, solid on the ball and a definite boost to the Bulls depth. Yup. I’m with it.
With Mendes secured into the fold, the Bulls [...]

Weekend Poll: Bring back Van Den Bergh!

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 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. [...]

Jeff Parke out? Revenge is Coming! Petke Signed!

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 4 Comments

The Seattle Sounders braved the dark dredges of the USL waters and have begun plucking MLS talent like vultures on a carcass. In an odd twist, the Red Bulls loss in Jeff Parke, though sentimental, was also inevitable and costless.
And in a move that can be best described as giving the Red Bull fans [...]

ALL THE BULL: International Call Ups, Exantus, and more

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 5 Comments

Hey everyone. I am back.
There has been some construction in my office that forced me off the internet for nearly four days. I never knew technology could cause withdrawals . . . . but here I am, back to the old bloggeroo.
And here is some stuff I’ve missed (and maybe you have too) [...]

MLS Communism Kills Kandji Deal (UPDATE AGAIN!)

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 23 Comments

Just when you thought the league turned the corner on ridiculous rules and regulations, we get this – MLS has blocked Red Bulls transfer of Atlanta Silverback standout, Kandji.
Grandfathering Carlos Ruiz is fine.
Grandfathering Landon Donovan? No problem Beckha . . . I mean Galaxy.
Allowing teams to label bogus discovery claims on players they have [...]
