    How on earth it wasn't 3-1 or 4-1 at half time to NE is anyone's guess!

    Heh heh, damn right. All very amusing. Remember this is largely being driven by muppets who refuse to take the train to Harrison. It's not in NY etc etc. Fine. Deal with a team of mercenaries including "stars" like fat Frank who reneged on his deal to be there at the start of the season...

    True, but this had been rumbling on for years now. About a decade ago, MLS tried to buy the rights when the Cosmos club had been mothballed and only the badge existed. The owner of the copyright wanted a ludicrous amount of money, so MLS told him to get stuffed. Then a few years later, a new...

    Kaka's shot the only highlight so far. Apart from that, shit game. No better than watching Millwall v Blackpool

    Metrostars/Redbulls fan here. Have been ever since I bumped into their supporters club in a pub opposite Madison Square Gardens. Not been to a game yet though, but I frequently stream them.
