		<title>Honest Abe Celebrates the 4th</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Abe Thompson only scores goals in stoppage time.  At least that’s what the FC Dallas striker would have you believe.  In the last two games, Thompson has played the role of Euro 2008’s Turkish “fireman” Semih Şentürk, scoring stoppage time goals in three of four halves.  Thompson’s 91st minute equalizer against the Kansas City Wizards gave FC Dallas a crucial draw on Independence Day at Pizza Hut Park.]]></description>

		<title>Cooper Swan Song?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So all this Rosenborg stuff won't go away, neither do the stories (rumors) of other clubs beginning to circle.  Could we in fact be seeing the end of Cooper's run in a Dallas uniform, if not now then after this season?

		<title>Match Day 16: KC Wizards at FC Dallas</title>
		<description><![CDATA[With the acquisition of Designated Player Claudio Lopez and a new stadium on the horizon, the Wizards came into the 2008 season looking to establish themselves as one of the major players in the Eastern Conference. Instead, KC find themselves at the bottom of the conference and have struggled to create chances and goals. A franchise whose history is based on defensive play was expected to move forward and be more aggressive, but once again are focusing on keeping a tight backline and finding it difficult to put the ball in the back of the net.]]></description>
