My New England Revolution gained some small (very small) measure of revenge (2-0) against the Houston Dynamo tonight. I have to admit being more than a little concerned at the lack of movement during the off-season after losing Noonan and Dorman, but the Revs looked to be in mid-season form and the two Gambian players who saw a little time last year looked great. I guess in the future I'll just trust Stevie Nicol to make the right moves.
It is also clear that the L.A. Galaxy still suck (they just went down 3-0 to the Colorado Rapids...the Rapids!?). It would probably be good for MLS and soccer in America in general if the team that fields both Landycakes and Soccer Spice were at least competitive, but it's not looking that way.
All criticism aside, Beckam's crosses really are on a different level. It's just too bad they all roll out of bounds as his teammates stand and watch.
In unrelated sports news, the ageless Tim Wakefield is pitching a nice game tonight in the alternate universe that is the exhibition game being played against the Dodgers in the L.A. Coliseum. And speaking of the Dodgers, Jeff Kent is their second baseman- I didn't realized he was still playing, what is he, 50?
