I really hope Landon gets his transfer, especially to a team like Bayern…but you gotta feel a little bad for LA..it looks like they’re going to lose both Landon and Becks, meaning they’re kinda screwed.

And I predict we will make Mexico cry.

And Sven will then go on to pick up some random woman. Again.

I will never forgive Oswaldo Sanchez for his despicable attempted slide on DeMarcus after that goal. It pisses me off every time I see it and all I want is to crush Mexico. Sorry, Rafa, but that’s just how it’s got to be.

Weren’t LA screwed even with LD and Becks there.

Scheisse is the four letter word for poop. I assume “tscheisse” means Hans has some kind of bowel dysfunction.

On the video: Pahahahahaha! I can’t believe that’s allowed. Too bad…but hey!

I also hope Donovan goes to the biggest club in Germany. Honestly, considering this is the biggest move for an American player as far as I can remember, who cares about LA left in the dust? Until America is a big soccer country (never-never land), or at least until the MLS isn’t a minnow league whose best teams can’t get beaten by a mid-table semi-pro team from Trinidad and Tobago, even Galaxy fans should be happy. I challenge you to find one Galaxy fan who is ONLY a Galaxy fan and not also a fan…probably a bigger fan…of a British/Spanish/Italian/German/EVEN French team. They know this is one of the biggest things to happen to US soccer in some time.

Alexinho, my first team is Galaxy and my second is USA. I watch the European leagues all the time, but I don’t have the connection to any of those team that I do to those two. Still, even though I love Landon on Galaxy, I definitely want him to succeed in Europe.
