AC Milan's roster for D.C. United friendly

Don't seem to be a lot of buzz around this game or am I wrong?

I was there for Barca - AC Milan back in 2003(?) and Ronaldinho dazzled. Here's hoping he cares enough to put on as good of a show as he did that day.

At first I wasn't too thrilled about this, but I think I'm going to make this one afterall.

VAMOS!!

So Seedorf gets a chance to scout his future teammates/MLS opponents, plus boost his contract offer(s)? Sounds like a win-win for him.

Plenty of good seats available in Salt Lake

Plenty of good soccer in Rio Tinto tonight as well, at least by the home side.

Speaking of Toyota... it made me think of our SI colleague, I-270, who gives us an update:

As always, well worth the read.

Findley put away a nice header about 3 minutes in but his performance the rest of the way indicates he will be watching the Cup from his couch. Not a huge surprise, I realize, but he really wasted some golden chances.

I'm watching WPL on CSN and just discovered there is a MMA event at the DC Armory Saturday night. I could so care less about MMA but does anybody out there know the typical crowd size this garbage attracts. I am worried about the parking impact this may have.

270,

Although I have never been touched by it, I have seen both my mother and brother make miraculous recoveries from it. Hang in there. Thoughts and prayers.

Nice comment. You might not like it, but calling it garbage is a bit ignant.

Two human beings in an octagon savagely beating each other to a pulp. I'm sorry but IMO the shoe fits. Some people may think that is entertainment but I never will.

pfff, he's not Carlos Bocanegra...

To each his own . . .

Saborio of RSL = Real deal

Ching > Findley

Attendance for MSL GoW = 13,000; attendance for D2 Palace B'more upset at Portland Timbers = 9,000

MMA = Garbage...tru dat

My neighbor is ex-Special Forces and an MMA Jiu Jitsu fighter. I am extremely polite and complimentary about the sport when chatting with him.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Thanks for the encouragement and kind words.

We'll see how Gooch fits into the scheme of the squad.

MMA is the new boxing. Like it or not it's here to stay. Probably better off showing some healthy respect for the fighters and the fanaticos.

BJ Penn 4 Eva brah!

Watching how the season has unfolded so far, I was kind of hoping DCU wouldn't play any elite teams this year. I don't like watching DC play without any realistic hope of getting results. Last year I went to the DC vs. Madrid game (everyone kind of knew it wouldn't be a repeat of the tie in Seatle) and heard it from Mexican team fans about DC not even scoring. America played well in that world club challenge they were in and Chivas tied Barcelona in their friendly. Seems whenever Mexican teams play elite teams they always at least have hope of an upset or good result. MLS teams lately just have hope that they don't lose badly. Only MLS teams doing well should have a crack at those elite teams. Just my thoughs.:)
