MLS stadiums have come a long way.

MLS now has soccer specific stadiums in LA (Galaxy, Chivas), Dallas, Chicago and Columbus.

Toronto (MLS expansion team in 2007) is currently building one, so is Colorado and NY (Harrison).

Real Salt Lake owner David Checketts also announced his intent to build a soccer stadium in the Salt Lake suburb of Sandy, Utah.

Since you're obviously a baseball fan... you should go rub something on Jason Veritec's knee to help it heal rather than be mezmerized by the Weather Channel.

Seriously... if you don't care about soccer, why are you clicking on a thread (and posting a comment) dissing soccer?

Jeez relax. I think soccer players are incredible athletes. I just think it has not really caught on in America. because it is boring. games are 90 minutes long. Americans can not watch someone kick a ball then chase it for 90 minutes and end up with a 1-0 score. If they would allow a little more "rough play" then perhaps it would find its nitch.

As far as variteks knee. At 11 million dollars a year and a low 200 batting average with I believe 6 home runs. Keep his knee on Ice.

TRSWTP is a good guy, not a hata.

As for his baseball team, they're the only side that makes me root for the Yanks.

Have a great weekend.

Nice result for the guys who make less money in a year than Mourinho spends on his suits.

I'll be at the Public Execution, errrrr, Real Salt Lake - Real Madrid next Saturday.

What a good game. The MLS looked really good. Should have had another goal too (although Chelsea should have also scored). De Rosario played really well. So did Albright and Adu.
