    Does Dichio still play for Toronto?

    I still miss the sun glare off his perfectly formed bald head. :54:

    Retired a few years ago. He scored Toronto's first ever goal though so they'll remember him for a while.

    Danny Kovermans is their main striker, these days. Major improvement on the likes of him. :56:

    Everton may not have seen the back of Tim Cahill with the midfielder admitting he would be open to the prospect of a return to Goodison Park on loan.
    The 32-year-old brought the curtain down on a superb eight-year spell at Goodison Park when signing for the New York Red Bulls, but there could well be an encore if the two clubs can thrash out a deal in January.
    He said: "I am totally focused on the Red Bulls but if we could find a happy medium that would suit both clubs then, maybe, I could go back on loan."
    Once he had made up his mind to move, Cahill has insisted there was never any chance of him playing for a Premier League rival of Everton.
    He said: "I'm very loyal to every club I've played for. I did not entertain the idea of joining another English club.
    "I could not have seen myself running out and playing against Everton."

    Yeah most of the better MLS players (especially those who play for their national teams) do this because of the absurdly long offseason.

    I am curious. Why do you describe the Chicago Fire as a *?

    * is a strong word, but the situation with Grazzini frustrated a lot of Fire fans from what I could tell. They also went through a dry spell which I thought was still going on but, by looking at the standings and seeing that they're now in playoff position, apparently is not the case anymore.

    Tim Cahill wins a penalty for his new team New York Red Bulls within the first 8 minutes. New York Red Bulls 1-0 Tottenham. Cooper scored the pen

    English commentator just asked Alexi Lalas if he thought cricket should be an Olympic sport. His answer was "no... that's arts and crafts." :56:

    FYI Diegan I was asking as I wondered did you have some specific information that would lead you to describe the club that way not as a case of me getting all defensive about Chicago Fire. Thanks for the response.

    They wanna sign someone who is the real deal, ie. Richard Dunne.

    Real Madrid is already up 1-0 against LA Galaxy in the 5th minute, lol.

    I picked LA to avoid losing by 3+ goals. Not so confident now.

    Anybody ever played the espn streak for cash game?
