New England Revolution v. San Jose Earthquakes (Saturday) Whatever happened to that big time striker the Revs were going to sign as their first Designated Player? Yeah, I’m thinking I should probably just get over it and move on. Having done that, the best thing that the Revs could do at this point would be [...]

Under normal circumstance I refrain from getting involved in transfer speculation and the rumor mill here on ATD in anything but the most light-hearted manner. At worse, I might report on what the rumors are around a given player or club, but I’m always careful to state that, in the end, they are only rumors. [...]

New England Revolution v. Real Salt Lake (Saturday) I have no gripes about the outcome of last weekend’s match against Vancouver, only a single question: How is referee Baldomero Toledo still allowed to work in MLS?! Still, the Revs flew out of Vancouver as one of the few clubs in MLS who have yet to [...]

Stade Rennais F.C. v. Olympique Lyonnais (Friday) There are still only five points separating the top five clubs in France’s Ligue 1, they’ve all played the same amount of matches, and the goal differential between the best and worst clubs in the top five spots is only seven- good stuff! This match features second place [...]

Scotland v. Czech Republic (Friday) A draw, that’s it, that’s all I asking for. Despite beginning their qualification with two results that could be called “underwhelming” at best, Scotland are actually leading Group I. Okay, okay, the Czech Republic and Spain have only played one match so far, but that means they have [...]

There are all sorts of reasons that a shirt might go without the ubiquitous “sponsor’s logo” emblazoned across the front. Perhaps the club feels that its shirt is so iconic that they would not consider sullying it with crass advertising as was the case at Barcelona until 2006 when, much to their credit, they decided [...]

Yesterday was the final day of La Liga and Serie A. While both races were technically still on, La Liga was settled before halftime and there really wasn’t much doubt to begin with, and in Serie A once Milito scored for Inter it was all over really. Two races that went to the wire but [...]

Ross County F.C. v. Dundee F.C. (Saturday) After Tuesday’s historic win over Hibernian in the Scottish Cup quarterfinals, the only thing for Ross County to do for the rest of the season is to follow that most hackneyed of sports cliches, to play “one game at a time.” First on that list is Saturday’s match [...]

Here’s a little tip for all you young bloggers out there: when you think you have a good idea for a post, and you put a lot of thought into it- PUBLISH IT! IMMEDIATELY! Otherwise you risk getting “scooped” by another blog and you end up looking like a plagiarist/bandwagon jumper/Johnny-Come-Lately. Still, even if you [...]
