Freddy Adu's return to Major League Soccer will happen, and he will once again be plying his trade on the East Coast, where he'll be reunited with a familar coach. Adu will be introduced as the Philadelphia Union's newest signing on Friday, marking his return to MLS after four years in Europ...
Does anyone else think this is a chance for Fox Soccer to bring more games from other countries?

NBC agrees three-year deal with MLS for TV rights
By CALEB SONNELAND 45 Major League Soccer games and four US Men's National Team matches per season. That's the television rights deal that NBC reached with the MLS today. NBC outbid Fox Soccer Channel for the rights to the MLS package. FSC currently has the rights for the remainder of 2011....
I can't be the only one who thinks that too many teams make MLS' playoffs.

MLS Ticker: League announces playoff dates, Crew's Gaven out injured and more
Major League Soccer announced the new-look MLS playoff schedule on Tuesday, with the wildcard round taking place over a Wednesday and Thursday night on Oct. 26-27. The first leg of the conference semifinals will take place over the weekend a couple of days later, followed by the second leg o...
Dlewis, quite simply, it is easier to watch a game from England than one from Spain in the USA, and so I'm sure the language and cultural differences keep a player who plays in Spain off the cover of a video game that's mainly meant for Americans.

Morning Ticker: Findley scores first goal abroad, Donovan on FIFA12 and more

It's like the old Mets post-game show with Ralph Kiner. One room, one camera, one spotlight. You'd think in a market as big as Philadelphia, some money could be spent on production, especially when a casino sponsors the show.

My PHL 17 Post Game Show Continues to be a Work in Progress
The part of last night's post-game show most talked about was John Clark's butchering of Cliff Lee's actual name. He called him "Clifford." I'm willing to give him a pass on that one, even though Clifton is easily the most popular athlete in the city. To be honest, when he was first traded to ...
I loved the electric sheep t-shirt. I pointed out the PKD book to a couple friends.

The Wheaton Recurrence
