Yeah, I think quite a few players will want to go back to SJ and back to The Frank in the coming months. It gives me a small sense of hope that we won’t end 2008 at the bottom of the (single) table. Even if we do, it’ll give Toronto something to be happy about and LA can spend a short while gloating.

I hope Harkes gets promoted. More US talent gets a shot and all that.

First off, congrats on being the SJ writer. Its gonna be good I am sure.

And I agree with you. Going down the line, RBNY had a very good lineup, especially when compared to the rest of the league. And yes, maybe it was the constant lineup changes, or the injuries. Who knows.

I think it will wind up being Harkes. I remember speaking to Alti and he credited Harkes for his improved play this year. That speaks volumes.

If not him, THEN a Euro coach.

Gotta give Lexi credit for finding a quick and excellent replacement. I mean, he has alot of haters, but he did the right thing at the right time.

You guys have Yallop pretty much in the bag. Im willing to bet 2 left socks that Jon Conway is heading your way.

I always thought this season NY had the best collection of individual players yet couldn’t seem to get it off the ground. Maybey its because Arena was constantly changing the line-ups? A friend of mine is convinced Arena started going mad after the last World Cup. I think getting a new coach is only going to be good for NY and its either going to be some established Euro guy (perhaps not as flashy as that dude La got) or your boy Harkes. I think cause Preki’s promotion wound up being pretty successful for the goats, NY may be more inclined to give it a shot.

Good luck, and I hope Altidore sticks it out in MLS at least one more year and maybey we give Reyna another year too? Lets all not start screaming for him to retire now. These are all my extremely subjective opinions, of course.
