Waters not putting out in training. Some say he is not match fit. Watters did not "earn" a uniform this week. Let us hope Waters turns it around.

I have not missed a home match (regular, preseason, spring) since Fall 2006 season. I will be there, with a hostage guest.

Tix arrived. Crisis abated..

oiy! Where my tix at, yo!

And our Joao Moutinho is too old to be the son of João Filipe Iria Santos Moutinho.

It would be too much to expect that this will occur, but do not be surprised should EZ break out with double digit goals this season. He has all the physical tools, and this is his fourth year in the program. If not now, when?

Upon one viewing, I am impressed with freshman forward David Egbo. He is stout and strong. Egbo receives the ball with either foot and will shoot powerfully with either foot. He may be that rare ambidextrous footballer.

CONCACAF Gold Cup Final USA vs. Jamaica. Starting (JAM) Darren Mattocks Starting (USA) Darlington Nagbe Teammates Portland Timbers Teammates Akron Zips 2010 NC Usually good friends, but not tonight.

Jamaica have the best GK in CONCACAF. And they are speedy up top. I do not anticipate a cake walk at all. This will be a tight match. Jamaica are very confident right now. They are better than Costa Rica.

Wow! Since when JLew have a left-footed cross? Spectacular finish by DVilla!

ESPN graded players after match vs. SAL. DarNag rated 7.0, higher than anyone else for either team.

There were countless Nagbe jerseys in the stadium last night.

Which jersey will USMNT don vs. Nicaragua? Which colors?

To Hell with those haters. Mattocks did very well just to partially control that difficult cross with his right foot. Did he intentionally set up the left-footed volley? Probably not. But he obviously adjusted extraordinarily well.

That was a world class score!

Anyone catch Darren Mattock's scorching left-footed goal for Jamaica in The Gold Cup? Minutes ago. Load video please........

Serna's left foot is HEAVY! What a thump!

Nagbe and Yedlin were both in good form vs. T&T.

I will stay for women's match. They need to show me (us) something this year! Mediocrity don't fly at Akron!

Shout Out to Tank123!

I heard someone refer to "Downtown Jackson". The weird thing about it is that I knew exactly where they meant: The intersection of Fulton and Wales. Route 241 / Massillon Road / Wales Avenue has changed so much, even in the last 10 years, from East Market Avenue all the way down to Lincolnway.

I remember that match. I remember that day. Wow. Thanks for reminding me of that. I think Steve Frick scored.

2006? http://www.gozips.com/sports/msoc/2006-07/releases/676449_1

I am not sure who is responsible for this happening, but adding SIU-E to MSOC is much better than we could have hoped for.

This is a very welcome turn of events for MAC MSOC. SIU-E is a significant upgrade over Buffalo. Zips RPI just shot up! Over the past few seasons, the Cougars have been just as good as Zips, perhaps better. Such cannot be said of other MAC teams, as much as we all want WVU to regain their national prominence. Beginning in 1967, SIU-E has nearly as much American soccer tradition as does Akron. Read. They won the College Cup in 1979, which gives them one star, just as many as some other squad I follow closely. Look at the list of All-American players.
