A message for us all

Right back at you Men. Now let's go get that kumbaya moment in Chester, Pa. and back here at Robertson next week.

Oh, and while I do seem to have the floor here. The Worldwide Leader put out their Top 10 MLS Goals of the season this past weekend from all games except the Dynamo win from Sunday night. And while it is quite nice to see Adam Moffat's previous bomb on here, it feels a little like mentioning Batman and leaving out Robin. Of course, it's probably a blessing in disguise because, knowing ESPN, if they put in anything from Sunday's game, they'd probably have just included McBean's.

Take a gander at the link here:

And while we're on the subject of videos, MLS is releasing its Goal of the Year candidates in groups, World Cup style. Quirky, in that MLS kinda way. Anyway, Alex Dixon's game-winner over RSL is in Group C, and the video below has the rest of the candidates as well. I think we all know which one deserves the votes in this group. Go here to register your vote. The three other Dynagoals up for consideration in other groups will be Moffat's aforementioned photon torpedoes and Danny Cruz' left-footed strike against Portland, also from distance.

Fun fact: Adam Moffat is scoreless on shots within 35 yards.

Also, if Dynamo start growing playoff beards like they have in years past, is Moffat allowed to compete or does he just get to determine who comes in second place?

Adam Moffatt the new Chuck Norris?

I think so…

And you gotta love that accent he has. Lol.

The Chuck

approves. He’d like to retire and become the World’s Most Interesting Man but needs a successor first…and after seeing his two goals, Chuck has him in training now. Beard is mandatory.

It stinks

I mean, upon viewing there are more technically “superior” goals that were scored, but its knowing the context of Dixon’s goal that amplifies its merit and value: we were in dire need of 3 points, had a disappointing result at that point in the game(and were hard done by the ref), and in comes this rookie who had been working to get into the line-up, put in at the last minute…and scores that goal: evades 2 defenders and puts it past the goalie at the far post.

Que golazo

Goal of the year voting

I’ve had to abstain from voting in a couple of groups b/c I just couldn’t decide. It’s just too tough a decision if a long range bomb is better than a tap in after dribbling 4 players and the goalie. Argh!

How sweet it is to see fc frisco go down in flames. As a houstonian living in san antonio, I’ve been hearing for the past few days about how frisco had more points than houston. And how if we were in the west still we would not be in the playoffs at all. Well, all I have to say is, nananananana!!! The only thing sweeter would’ve been if WE would’ve gotten the chance to beat them, yet AGAIN, and knock them out of the playoffs.
