Roster analysis
First of all, here's a link to what the Fullback wants for Christmas. That's required reading for all DCU fans this offseason.Secondly, with all the recent roster moves, and with the rule changes for 2008, I think it's time that we reset and take a look at where we currently stand.The rule changes...
Time for another roster analysis
I came up with most of this while standing in line outside in 20 degree weather for two hours to see Barack Obama speak in College Park yesterday (well worth it).Major League Soccer is probably unlike any other league in the world that I can think of in its limitation of foreign players and players...

Mid-Season Review part 2: Departures
Continuing on in our mid-season review of DC United's roster decisions in the offseason, we move on to the departures. For this entry, our definition of "departure" will be any player who was on the club roster last season, but who is no longer under contract with the team, for reasons other than a...
Panthers Sign DT Darwin Walker
My only negative about the Panthers draft was the lack of an early pick for a DT. Well the Panthers shored that up quickly by signing former Eagle/Bear Darwin Walker. The Panthers struck quickly to fill their hole on the defensive line, signing veteran Darwin Walker to a one-year deal Monday...
