Wow, I'd consider travelling to New York to watch a match there.

In other news, my season ticket seats from this past season are currently being replaced by a stage at Crew Stadium. :(

Apparently, MLS will raise the salary cap from $2.1 million per team to $2.25 million for next season. That's a 7% increase. A more modest increase than some had hoped for, but an increase nonetheless. By my calculations, if MLS raises the cap by 7% every year from now on, the salary cap will be $4.1 million ten years from now. Which is only 3 million in 2007 dollars. Still, that wouldn't be too bad.

The number of foreign players allowed per team is going up from 7 to 8. Also, the league is going to abolish the "Senior International/Youth International" designations. From now on, all foreign players count towards the same total.

Too lazy to actually look up the links for this info.

I like all of the changes. The MLS definitely has some smart people leading it in the right direction and it starts with the leadership of Garber.

Houston really needs to get a new stadium.

Back-to-back titles and we're playing at f*cking Robertson! At least let us use Reliant.

Apperently the Rockets are trying to block any city funding for a stadium due to some deal surrounding the Toyota Center.

are they just a bunch of c*nts? or is there more to the story?

I think the deal is that the Rockets signed a deal with the city which basically forbids the city from funding any "rival" venue to the Toyota Center, basically any venue which might take concerts from the arena.

I don't know. Vålerenga won't say anything. We have heard he won the best goalie MLS award this year, that is correct?

Nope, Brad Guzan of Chivas USA was awarded best GK in MLS. Perkins won it in 2006

D.C. United apparently has an offer for Troy Perkins from a team in Norway, and is shopping around MLS for a replacement


the team is my Vålerenga, can someone tell me something about him?

EDIT: Well now he is 100% ours.. for 5 years.

Perkins is a pretty good keeper. I didn't rate him very highly initially, but he's put together two nice seasons in MLS. He's nothing spectacular, but he's a fine shot-stopper, quick off this line, and good with crosses as well. Other MLS players of similar ability have gone to Norway and done well for themselves (Adin Brown, Ramiro Corrales, Brian West), so I don't see why he couldn't find success there as well.

Woah! Where's he been since he left Man United? Last I remember Reineri had signed him to Chelsea and was calling him "the best in the world" (not that I have a good memory, I was in england while it happened so I have that edition of the sun as a souvenir). I haven't heard from him since.
Edit: the other United
