Zidane Rumors...

Well it was quiet for about a week until a Mr. Zidane is back in the rumor mills. Chicago was the first target, but the rumor was shot down by coach Dave Sarachan. Now the new rumor is that our Red Bulls are pursuing the Frenchman. He reportedly will not talk to any team that will give him less than 15 million per year. That makes NY a good candidate because of their deep pockets. Now if you are asking yourself how the Red Bulls will fit another $400,000 into there salary cap, you must remember that Conway is close to being traded. Since last season, Jon has earned some trade value. What does this mean? He and possibly another player (maybe a Dema Kovalenko) can be traded to Toronto for some allocation money as well as easing up some room in the cap. Again these are all just speculations and must be taken with a grain of salt. I must say one thing though, Bruce Arena should work for the CIA because he is doing a fine job in keeping everything top secret during this off season. Well I'm gonna get ready to watch some exciting Champions League Soccer on "the deus". Ciao.

My First Blog...

Whats up soccer fans...I am new to this whole blogging thing so bear with me until I get the hang of it. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Joe, and I live in NJ which naturally makes me a Red Bull Fanatic. Through the years, us Metros fans have developed a love and hate relationship with our "beloved" team. Every season ends the same way...Metros barely make it through to the playoffs and get ELIMINATED allowing us to recite those famous words "there is always next season" ! Well I feel that this season will be different and 2007 is in fact the YEAR OF THE METROS....oh by the way, I tend to still call them the Metros rather than the Red Bulls...I guess it is just a bad habit. I will be trying to constantly post updates so please keep reading.
