Philadelphia is hoping to become a member of the MLS in 2010 and is even building a soccer specific stadium to go along with the new team. The ground was broken in December on the new stadium but the current credit issue might kill the expansion team before it even has a name. “If the [...]

The Columbus Crew new logo project has gathered a lot of support and attention in the last month or so, mostly due to being featured on epically prominent design blog Brand New. We’ve had tons of smart, critical commentary, which led to this new and (in my opinion) improved version of the logo. Using the [...]

Lets start with the understanding that I am a Crew fan. I was at the first game in Ohio Stadium and went to multiple games this season. Having Chad Marshall on the Crew is nothing but a positive. Chad was MLS Defender of the Year for a reason and every team in MLS would take [...]

When I first read the headline that the MLS is considering making changes to the format and Cup Final, I was thinking (hoping) more European-ish type system. Not so much. The final was in California this year and both teams were from the east side of the country. While the event was considered a “sell-out”, [...]

RBNY 1-0 RSL I sat down to watch the Western Conference finals hoping Real Salt Lake would win. I felt The Crew had a better chance against RSL in the final.

Saturday I watched the Crew dismantle Kansas City with class, 2-0. IT WAS EASY. Maybe next year, the Wizards can cast a spell that makes them good. Ahem. A more interesting aspect of this game was the behavior of the Crew Massive, Hudson Street Hooligans, Nordecke, Local 614—whatever they want to be called. The crazy [...]
