Soccer by Ives and MLS Rumors are reporting that the Kraft family is going to shell-out the cash to buy Portuguese legend Luis Figo. The 127-times capped right winger won the European Player of the Year Award in 2000, and the World Player of the Year Award in 2001. He beat out David Beckham in [...]

By: Sabin | 8 Comments
According to this article at MLSNet.com, Revolution Midfielder Andy Dorman will not be signing for more time with the Revs. Though there is no mention of a specific timeline in the article and also no reciprocal mention of the news at the Revolution’s website, a lot of us felt this was going to happen sooner [...]

Steve Nicol: 100 Players who Shook the Kop
Pat Noonan’s Goal against Houston
The first goal from Nicol in the top link looks almost exactly like Noonan’s goal from the Houston game this Sunday. More than anything, this gives me fuel for further support for Noonan in the face of what — it seems at times [...]

Boston.com notes on Revs
The link above points to an article about Avery John — filling in for Michael Parkhurst for the next two weeks or so — not being able to play in the CONCACAF Gold Cup this year. Apparently, he and some team mates have been blacklisted from the Trinidad & Tobago team for [...]

Arsene Oka, a regular player with the Revolution Reserves, hails from the Ivory Coast where soccer is at least 10 times more important than it is here. Given that, one can understand his point in the write-up above about not being used to the lack of fans. Apparently, though, he seems to [...]
Let’s talk about Wells Thompson
By: Sabin | No Comments
I wanted to do this right after Saturday’s game, because I was immediately impressed with the way Wells Thompson approached his role. How can I describe it? A kind of lanky, off-balance grace that was just odd enough to keep the Fire at bay long enough for him to get a pass off.
At first glance, [...]

Before I start today’s post, I just want to wish my comrade-at-words, Jeff, good luck with his new assignment. He’s going to be taking over theoffside.com’s Columbus Crew blog. he tells it better in his own words here. Good luck, Jeff, and thanks for the fine writing for the Revolution. I’ll do my best to [...]
Shalrie Watch Continues
By: Jeff | No Comments
(UPDATE: Not to trump what appears below, but my current wager (4th “real” paragraph in this post) as to where a footloose Shalrie Joseph might go just got a boost. I just read on the Toronto FC blog that the Canadian outfit picked up Brian Mulrooney from FC Dallas. That should clear up [...]
Parkhurst: More Good News
By: Jeff | No Comments
With the Boston Globe suddenly taking an interest in the New England Revolution, there’s plenty to talk about. Today’s “double-plus-good” news appears below, but there’s another item in the Globe today reporting on the status of starting central defender Michael Parkhurst’s shoulder.
