120 Fahrenheit: Bugging Me

It's not like it's been a good season.

June 17th, 2009 . By: Buzz Carrick

Let’s face it, this is going to be a long year. FCD is firmly entrenched at the bottom of the standings, and while there is some small hope, it’s not likely at this point FCD will make the playoffs. It’s a 30 game season and FCD is almost to the halfway point with only 10 points. 40 is the normal target to make the playoffs and the odds FCD can get 30 points in 17 games is slim.

Season Saved? Nope.

FCD had a window to save the season with 5 of 6 games at home. They didn’t get it done.

More Attendance Data

June 16th, 2009 . By: Buzz Carrick

The Attendance Depths post and Not So Fast analysis of last week drew some interesting responses from people, several of whom are much better at stats than I am. Rather they put them in separate posts, I’ll lump a couple of them together for everyone to see. There is certainly some interesting stuff in here.

Game Grades: Houston Dynamo vs FC Dallas

June 15th, 2009 . By: Peter Welpton

Let’s just get the obvious out of the way, FC Dallas is not going to the playoffs. Right, that is pretty obvious to anyone that’s been paying attention – but for the spoonful of hardcore hopefuls that might need to be reinforced as to help lessen the blow come this Fall.
