Extreme makeover: RSL edition
By: Fitz |Forgive the obvious TV pun. I wouldn’t have written it if it weren’t true. That’s why this is a must-read blog; if I have written it, it’s true. I am exactly the kind of guy Franka Potente is looking for. See? All true. Hi Franka! I loved “The Princess and The Warrior”!

The game, played in Lauderhill, Fla., concludes training in Florida. They’ll come back home, rest up, train in Utah, then head to Argentina on Feb. 29 — unless their dates on their Web site […]
Now that I’ve slept on it …
By: Fitz |Though not confirmed yet by either team, I’m gonna trust our fair Internet reporters and assume that Dema Kovalenko is on his way.
Looks like we’ve got a hard-working midfield group here. Let’s stop for a second. I just said “we.” I don’t mind fans using “we” if they invest emotionally in a team. But I’m […]
