We may have a hole or two in our squad for this trip — certainly neither of Nick Rimando and Will Johnson have traveled, one due to injury precaution, and one due to a rush of blood to the head on the weekend — but I'm not in the least bit…
Midweek matches always make things move more quickly, and this week is no exception. The boys — or most of them, at least — are off to Chicago to put out the Fire, which, of course, we didn't start. (Can I shoehorn any more references in…
Ah, Monday, the bane of all days. Or, you know, something like that. We've got two more games before we get a bit of a break, and they're both on the road. First up: Chicago. Now, as long as we don't take a wrong turn at Albuquerque, we…
