* This word is to be uttered as a single, high-ish-pitched note. Think “La!”

In the vacant three/four day period of no games during this week it’s real quiet here at MLS Offside, with stories few and far between. Here’s what we’ve got going on:

And I do apologize for my failure to post Major League Links last Friday. But, y’know…life.

By: Laurie | 3 Comments
I was searching for MLS salary info today for something I was writing on the salary cap. Instead I found some fascinating little salary-related tidbits from 2004. (Keep in mind that salaries for 2008 haven’t been released yet, so this is just three years old.)
