If, by this point, you've not seen Rafa Marquez's quotes regarding his teammates, I'd implore you to do so: http://www.empireofsoccer.com/?p=3618. Marquez quite effectively illustrates a few things about the state of the MLS and about the…
Two distinct things for you today: a match preview (that went quickly, didn’t it?) and a bit of a belated analysis of some trends I noticed during the Sporting KC match. Of course, you would be right to assume that I’ll veer around and…
