• BBVA Compass Stadium holding up "surprisingly well" after a rugby game and six soccer matches. (Houston Chronicle)
• Houston's defense let in seven goals in two games last week. Obviously more than an off week for what was "widely considered one of the best in Major League Soccer." Cameron admits the team has been flat saying "I think we haven't been our best." (Houston Chronicle)
• "Bruin on a roll after his up-and-down rookie year," says Thomas Floyd of Soccer By Ives. The sophomore striker has already bagged nine goals this season, making him tied for third in the MLS. (Soccer By Ives)
• A video of Brian Ching discussing what it means to be a captain and leader of an MLS team. (MLS Soccer)
• Will Bruin rightfully earned "Team of the Week" honors after bagging three goals in two games. (Houston Dynamo)
• Boniek Garcia on his arrival to Houston (with English subtitles) (Houston Dynamo)

Here's some news for you. The new Dynamo right wing told me he prefers to go by Boniek Garcia. No Oscar.
