Some News for Wed Sep 1, 2010
STARTERS
In this day and age of soccer on TV seemingly everywhere isn't it sad that tonight we have the SuperLiga final and both US Open Cup semifinals, and none of the 3 games are on English language television. As a matter of fact, the Open Cup games aren't on television at all. No wonder no one takes these games seriously.

Sounders US Open Cup game will be webcast on soundersfc.com at 7:30 pacific time tonight. I believe our normal tv/radio announcer, Arlo White, will have the call as well.
Still sucks that it's not even on local radio here.
The lose of Portland, Seattle, and Vancouver from whatever you want to call the second division has really sucked from a Minnesota stand point. Great for those fans and clubs but man all that's left for any real historical competition/rivalry is Rochester.
Sure Montreal still has one more year and Puerto Rico has been around for awhile but those two just don't have the same something as Rochester, Seattle, Portland and Vancouver. Heck even the meetings with Rochester; a team Minnesota met 3 times in the Final, lost a bit of importance due to not being in the old Western Conference... oh well
