Maybe Ugo is better, maybe Drew. Etc etc. This is all beside the point. Moor was a veteran leader in the locker room. He had his coach's back.

Drew is more of an offensive threat since he has great heading ability. He is not a flashy player, but plays with intelligence and heart. Ugo is a better athlete, but not a better player. Hyndman had more talent at SMU since N Texas is a youth talent machine and faced no in-state recruiting rival, but yet made only one final four. He was a poor coach at SMU and won meaningless games in very weak conferences. Now as an MLS coach we see he can't evalute talent and can't coach. As an original season ticket holder I think this is it for me. The Hunts are terrible owners with a track record to that backs it up. :mad:

Oh geez, give us a break! "I go to every game" Whoopee for you! Attending games does not make you an expert, but your postings show your lack of knowledge. "so if you see results on the field(and that means playoffs) that back up what you believe then come see me." Like I said, something needs to change for FCD. It does not appear a coaching change is any option and unlikley there will be an ownership change so any FCD fan should be wanting to see player movement - outgoing and incoming. If FCD went into next season with most of the roster from this season intact, the result most likely would be the same. The only chance of improving is by making changes. "I’m not hard to find." Why would anyone be looking for some goofball poster on a soccer board? "In the mean time you don’t know what you are talking about." In your opinion which, after reading your posts means very little - nil, to me. “I guess I see things before some others.”

Have to wonder how much not having a true CB partner for last 3 years reflected on his play. 2) Sorry Drew went to Crapids. They are #1 on my teams to hate list. 3) At least SH got a known commodity with potential in Ugo. Hopefully he's not a head case. 4) This team should have been blown up after the last playoff loss. It's taken too long. Anyone really miss Alvarez? 5) No DP will come to FCD in its current form. The Ugo's of MLS are all you've got at this point. 1) Glad Drew got out.

Here is the link from FCD homepage. So it is an MLS story. Really have no clue as to what significant means but he feels it is enough to help them get another player as well if needed. http://fc.dallas.mlsnet.com/news/mls_news.jsp?ymd=20090831&content_id=6721970&vkey=news_mls&fext=.jsp Jonesing,

Schellas is not the man for the job just like HSG is not the best owner in a place like the DFW area. I guess I see things before some others. I go to every game so if you see results on the field(and that means playoffs) that back up what you believe then come see me. I'm not hard to find.

Even if he did say "significant", don't you think that would be in his own best interest to make the trade look better? I've seen mixed feedback from CRapids fans on this trade, certainly if it seemed that they received "significant" money along with Moor, it would make it better. And really what is "significant"? If you wanted to give me $100 right now, I would consider that "significant", but if FCD gave $25k in allocation money to CRapids is that really "significant"?

Colorado's coach is saying it was significant money. Is there anyway to get an interview with Drew and get his feelings on this? I hope this will work out. I have nothing bad to say about Jair and Harris trades/moves. However this seems to be an unequal trade for FCD. Like many have said the pick really dose not matter but the money has to mean something. Jonesing. Colorado’s coach is saying it was significant money.
