Dan Wheldon Greets FCD Media (courtesy FC Dallas)Terrific day for racing… er… I mean training. Really beautiful out, I was wishing I was on the golf course. Bit windy. Although as usual the stadium blocks most of it from the FCD training field.
You may be aware by now that Dan Wheldon dropped by training to participate. Let’s just say he shouldn’t quit his day job. Nice promotion for FCD though as there were about 20 media out. That’s WAY more than usual.

MLS Power Rankings: Week 5

April 30th, 2008 . By: Parrish Glover

When the season started, the Power Rankings staff had the Dynamo and Chivas in the top two spots. I’m not going to say that the mighty have fallen, but I can’t deny that the mighty-appearing have nosedived straight to the bottom. Nosedove, nosediven? Whatev, Houston sucks and I’ve got the numbers to prove it.

120 Fahrenheit: Cautiously Optimistic

April 29th, 2008 . By: Buzz Carrick

I’ve had mixed feeling about this season for a while now. Some things about this team I like and some I do not. Some of the winter moves I liked and some I did not. I was certainly on board with dumping Carlos for a bag of cash and a pick, and that fact that only LA seemed to have any interest ought to tell us something. But on the other hand I have also felt all along that FCD overpaid for a elder defender in the form of Duilio Davino.

Good Show, Bad Result

April 26th, 2008 . By: Buzz Carrick

FCD showed some nice things in the Revs game, including solid defense, some great possession, and fairly clean ball movement. But in the end it’s about wins, and FCD dropped the ball in that sense.
