Jose Mourinho is the new manager of Inter Milan

Jose Mourinho has signed a three-year deal to be manager of Inter Milan in Italy’s Serie A.
What does this mean? It means that the self proclaimed “special one” has finally landed at a club after his September 2007 exit from Chelsea. It means that Roman Abramovich and the Chelsea front office needs to worry about [...]

David Beckham - England Captain

David Beckham has been picked by England coach Fabio Capello to captain the team in their friendly against Trinidad & Tobago. This news comes almost 2 years after Beckham voluntarily relinquished the captaincy of the English national team.
I know some people might think I may be overly in support of Beckham, but in my opinion, [...]

Toronto FC Fans!

I am currently watching the La Galaxy vs Toronto FC game and I feel compelled to write a post about just how amazing the TFC fans really are. TFC is currently winning 2-0 in the 71st minute, but the signing, chanting, and screaming has been going on since kick-off. At the start of the second [...]

USA vs England Review

Where do I begin? Disappointed. 2-0 loss to England.

USA vs England kicks off!!

Here is the line-up for the USA
——–Dempsey——Johnson———
-Beasley——Bradley—-Clark——Wolff-
Pearce—Onyewu—Bocanegra—Cherundolo
——————–Howard——————
It seems as though Donovan is not 100% from a groin strain he suffered in the Saturday’s LA Galaxy match against the Kansas City Wizards. I’m hearing he will not be playing in the game. That’s a huge blow for the US, and I may have to alter my [...]

Brian McBride to leave Fulham - MLS bound?

Brian McBride will be leaving EPL team Fulham. McBride is another American who will no longer be at the London club. He will soon be 36 years old, and I have to believe that his soon to be retirement is a deciding factor on this decision.
It’s been known that McBride has always had the desire [...]

On Wednesday, May 28th, the United States national team will face off against the England national team at Wembley Stadium in London.
