Pre-season always drives me crazy, but this one has been even tougher than usual for me. This team showed enough the last two months of last season to set up high expectations for 2010. But disappointment and FC Dallas soccer have been virtually synonymous in seasons past, so any positivity seems wisely taken in measured doses, right?
As hard as it is for me to say this, especially because its my first posting of the new season
RSL stepping out of the box.

The 2010 season, simmering for months in a pot of uncertainty, is finally upon us. The arrival of yet another expansion team, the secretive trials and training habits of some organizations, and a new CBA have thrown rosters into turmoil not been seen since the formative years of the league. This great flux has some fans concerned about the level of play, and confused about where each team lies in terms of talent. Not to fear; the level of play will be better than ever, and this preview will attempt to sort out the rosters and give a foundation for the average fan.
Confirmed.
Here’s what you need to know about the new CBA. It’s complicated but I’ll try and simplify it for you. It lasts five seasons, 2010 through 2014.
One spot, two names: Edson Edward and Jason Yeisley.
This isn’t your usual MMG game breakdown, instead I want to talk about the upcoming season, some of the Good and Bad as I see it. It’s been tough to get a handle on this team, with the inconsistent results it’s hard to know how this team will look. Yet results aren’t always the key to spring games. Frequently it’s about something else. So let’s look a bit deeper at some of the positives and negatives.
It was cold and nasty at PHP, but the new kits looked good, and so did FC Dallas. The season is upon us and I’m sure the weather will be nicer. Game on!
