I’m not a Chelsea fan, Zack can vouch for that (Facebook video), but for those of you that are or might otherwise be interested in hanging out with the boys from London when they play the Seattle Sounders on July 18th, then here’s your chance.
You need to create a 12 second video on the 12second website to compete. It’s a site that integrates well with Twitter, I’ve posted a couple of videos so far so fire up the webcam, sign up for an account and have at it!
You missed a good game on Thursday if you were wrapped up in the NCAA early round games. The Seattle Sounders clobbered the NY Red Bull 3-0 which is a nice introduction to the league. They’ve got a 21 y.o. Columbian kid by the name of Freddy Montero you’ll be seeing a lot of this season.
Meanwhile, MLS Commission Don Garber was in Portland on Friday inviting them to join the league in 2010. It’s hard to hold it against them, they have a heck of a fan base. Pitch Invasion features a story on the Timbers Army that’s worth a read. Of course, the lack of a stadium was supposed to disqualify them. We’ll see how that plays out…
I’ll be drowning my sorry in St Louis this weekend, and plan on enjoying the Chivas USA vs Colorado Rapids match at 9:30 pm CDT. Both teams have goalies on the roster that are Missouri State Bear alum’s, maybe we’ll get to see one or both of them. The MSU website has a nice roundup on the two of them.
And of course, the Wizards game at 7:30 pm is also available, on Direct Kick for those with access. I also added the MLS National TV Schedule to my Soccer Calendar, so for those with ESPN-only, we can keep up there.
