The Good: Chelsea got beat down by Tottenham last weekend, and that means someone other than Chelsea holds first place in the Premiership. Of course, that someone is Manchester United, so it’s not a perfect world by any means.
The Bad: BOLD MLS CUP PREDICTION – I hate to say this, but I believe Houston Dynamo are going to be the next holders of the Rothenberg Trophy. I’d prefer the Revs to get their first championship – goodness knows the longsuffering fans in New England deserve it, and they have the talent. In any case, I think it will be an entertaining match, with, I’m guessing, at least 5 goals scored. I’ll be going to Frisco for the festivities, Lord willin’ and the creek don’t rise, so I should have a report on the whole deal early next week. Of course, I’m also planning on playing in the second annual Supporter’s Cup tournament on Saturday, so I could very well be in traction early next week.
The Ugly: The Colorado Rapids announced this week they’ve sold naming rights to their new stadium to (drumroll, please): DICK’S SPORTING GOODS. Sometimes, there is justice in the universe.
