Beckham (continued)

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 8 Comments

Since this was such a popular discussion last time, I have another log to throw into the fire:

David Beckham? WTF?!

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 26 Comments

I had the horrible misfortune of being sucked into a footie game that I did not anticipate watching. But, like any MLS fan boy, it is hard to change the channel when you are witnessing a rejuvenated David Beckham, donning the number 32 for the Rossineri, slicing up the opposition in one of the [...]

Weekly Wrap-up

So the season is just two months away. I know that things at MLS Offside have been slow — my bad. It’s a slow time of year, so I’m going to at least do one post a week. That’s where I’ll start, and I may do more, but check in here at least once a [...]

MLS gets NO RESPECT: Ranked 77th!!!!!!!!

By: Dave Martinez | Comments 10 Comments

Well, this is a bit ridiculous.

The infamous IFFHS released its 2008 world rankings of the best football leagues. And somehow, the nation that is [...]

What Would you Name Philadelphia?

By: travis | Comments 17 Comments

Word from Ives is that they have four names that will be voted for to name the new Philadelphia franchise – that is if it manages to stay above water.
The four names:
AC Philadelphia
SC Philadelphia

Don’t worry I’m Still Here

By: travis | Comments 2 Comments

So I wrote an apology post on the Arsenal Offside yesterday and figured that I would also have to come over here to revive things. I’m still in the loop here, just haven’t made the time for MLS Offside. I guess I could use the holiday season excuse for posting around 0.0025 posts per day, [...]
