KC Wizards traded one of if not their best defender.
But got good money.
Kinda head scratching at first but selling high ( Dom Dwyer ) seems to be KC's thing.

Yup.
Was getting abused all over the place.
The first goal he let in was pure fail -- even if you know you don't have the speed, you need to press to the outside, and not let the guy cut straight across the goal.

Tim Meila was rightfully fuming.

Zus was already becoming an issue last year. Sinovic also looked way too slow.

SKC, rightfully, does not seem affected by the fan's heartstrings. They're on their last legs as starters and maybe with the club.

And Vermes is not scared to make any changes. I just think they need to find those guys to replace them.

I'm not going to pretend to know the ins and outs of the youth depth chart, but I'd bet that the replacements are already in the system.

I got to catch the first half of Atlanta v Cincy.
Holy shit what a crowd.
70,000 strong, top notch stadium, cheering, waving flags.

They ended up tying I see which is a little surprising considering how they were dominating.

Just nice to see the support continue to rise.
When MLS opened up in the mid 90's not a chance in hell you'd have a crowd like that.

Atlanta is struggling adjusting to new manager. They want attacking style, manager wants possession and to attack in certain points. Last year's ATL team was attack all game, every game. Worked out well for them.

Still need to attend a Sporting game. Plenty of friends have and love it. Drove by a ton of times. But need to catch a game there.

Went to a few Wiz games at Arrowhead. Hated being so far away and an empty stadium, but it was fine as I was young and not too into the sport yet.

Now, I love it and would love it there, I'd bet.

KC faces Independiente, down 2-1 in aggregate, in the quarters of CONCACAF Champions league Thursday night in Kansas City.

They may have the only chance out of the MLS to make it to the semis at this point.
