Good evening folks. I’m about to take off from Dallas to Newark on the return trip from Houston and wanted to check in with you all. Apologies for the lack of afternoon posting but the commute back home has made that tough.
For those of you who haven’t seen it, here is my piece on the Red Bulls’ stunning upset of Houston for ESPN.com.
I will offer a more detailed account of the upset, and the elements that led to that result, on Tuesday. For now I am heading back home and as great as the people and BBQ were, I can’t wait to be home again.
Give my ESPN column a read and feel free to share your thoughts on the match in the comments section below.
Donovan is not a team player. He shows up when he feels like it. Way too inconsistent for a team approach like Bayern’s. Couldn’t even get the G’s into the playoffs.
Landon Donovan is heading back to Germany
News from Germany: Donovan is having a trial at Bayern and could replace Podolski who wants to leave Bayern during the winter break. Kicker magazine mentions that a loan deal and says that Klinsmann wants that move.

You heading to Columbus on Thursday? Or watching that one from home?
beautifully and accurately written, although we didnt really back into the playoffs, as the points dont lie!…but thanks dc! what bbq? I missed that part, lol. Have a safe trip home.
We ended up going to Goode’s on Kirby. Great stuff. Gotta love that jalapeno cheese bread!
Just got back from Houston fun trip great game, looking for fares to Salt Lake City for this weekend. Nice talking to you at the airport Ives on the way down
Juan Pablo is pure class…he’s such a dedicated, responsible, and modest professional. We are truly lucky to have him on our club. Hopefully he will still be here when RBA opens.
Click your heels three times…
And do the THRILLERRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!
Enjoy the time home. Only 5 days until Salt Lake, eh?
Great article as usual Ives!
