Strikers visit the Puerto Rico Islanders
The Fort Lauderdale Strikers will battle the Puerto Rico Islanders tonight Friday, April 29th, 2011 at 8:00 p.m. at Juan Ramón Loubriel Stadium. The Islanders, the reigning Div 2 champions and also the reigning CFU Club Championship winners, are undefeated in the NASL so far this season winning 2 games away and another in their home debut. The Islanders current form will be a test to the Strikers as they come off their first victory this season versus the Atlanta Silverbacks last weekend (2-1).“The Islanders are playing well right now and it’s going to be a tough challenge,” said Head Coach Daryl Shore. “We are hoping to build from our effort in Atlanta last week and we are looking forward to going down there and coming away with some points.”Read more HERE
The Strikers four-match road trip will also take them to Minnesota and Carolina. The team will return to action at Lockhart Stadium on May 14th against in-state rival FC Tampa Bay.

RSL Without Beckerman Tonight. Are You Scared?
I'm sure I'm supposed to be saying something grand and epic about RSL's massive match tonight but I kinda feel like it's all been said already so why write something fro the sake of it? I will say though that the absence of The Great Unwashed™ due to yellow card accumulation has the potential to open the door for Monterrey.
No offense to Ned Grabavoy or whoever takes his place in the middle but the Morales-Beckerman tandem is arguably the best central midfield combo in the league right now and their chemistry is the bedrock on which this team is built. I know Kreis doesn't have a choice but this is like introducing a new drummer to the bass player during soundcheck just before you record a live album at the Hollywood Bowl; you gotta do what you gotta do but there potential for a rhythmic disaster to be be seen by all and for eternity.
Miami MLS Champions League Final watch party, MLS Miami videos and more...
Our good friend and Miami Ultras member Brian Corey has started a new MLS Meetup group with the intention of catching big MLS games and tonight happens to be one of those days as Real Salt Lake will attempt to be the first MLS team to win a Champions League Final. Come join us at Mickey Byrnes tonight, Wednesday at 10 PM. Please come join us and join this awesome group: http://www.meetup.com/Miami-Major-League-Soccer-MLS-Fan-Club/ . Talk about MLS... I've never won anything before so when I received an envelope in the mail the other day I was surprised I had won a Major league Soccer T-Shirt. Here is how I won it:
 Hey Ed,Thanks for pledging to watch Tuesday night's opening match of the MLS season. I'm happy to report that you were one of the first 2,000 fans to take the pledge, so your free t-shirt is on its way! Russ Findlay Chief Marketing Officer Major League Soccer |
Following are videos of recent mentions of MLS Miami, both in Spanish. This one is from ESPN's Jorge Ramos y su banda. They even mention the Miami Ultras.
This video is from an MLS game transmitted on Galavision, one of the Univision channels. They constantly mention MLS Miami in their broadcasts.

Agudelo & Bunbury Give MLS Its "Twilight" Moment
ZOMFG Teal Bunbury and Juan Agudelo have a Twitter beef! So awesome. Sure it's not a "somebody's going to end up shot on the Las Vegas strip"-beef (these are American soccer players after all) but I'll take it since I am all for the Twilightification* of MLS.
Seriously, if this thing plays out right it could be a merchandising boon for both parties. I want to see Team Bunbury-branded, K.C.-style BBQ sauce. I want to see Team Agudelo sweatbands in my local adidas store. I want Teal dropping a diss verse on the next Drake remix. I want to see Juan score then get a yellow card against K.C. this Saturday for lifting his jersey to reveal a shirt with a picture of Teal's face with a line through it a la the Ghostbusters logo.
I'm telling you this could be big, "straight-to-DVD Agudelo vs. Bunbury movie sold exclusively at Hot Topic"-big.
*Not a real word.

Kyle Beckerman Wears Massive Tam, Is More Irie Than You

Did You Know Chris Rolfe Still Plays Soccer?
Nice work by Chris Rolfe over the weekend in Denmark. I'd place it right up there with his "mythical" golazo against A.C. Milan back in the day. I'd actually forgotten that he still played because the Danish League may as well be the Martian Premiership. Good to know he's still alive.
Beckham Still Talking About Taking a Seat at the Owners Table
In case you missed it over the weekend, FOX Soccer --they're moving away from the whole "FSC" thing-- dropped one of the lengthiest interviews with Becks that we've seen in a while. Or at least one of the lengthiest interviews that didn't take place on the couch of a late-night talk show.
I'm fascinated with his continued talk of owning a club after he retires. Outside of New York and Miami I can't imagine where he would set up shop; no offense to the good people of Atlanta, Detroit, San Diego or North Carolina but I just can't see him going anywhere that doesn't have some air of superficial glamor. I know it's all about business (unfortunately) but can you really see him reviving the Tulsa Roughnecks or some sh*t like that?
Actually now that I think about it there is one old NASL market I could see him dropping paper on. It's probably a long shot but sweet Lord in heaven it would be one hell of a road trip.
MagicJack and Strikers win. Road trip to Atlanta pictures.
MagicJack started their season with a victory over the Boston Breakers this past Saturday night at Florida Atlantic University. Ella Masar scored in the 26th minute for magicJack, who dominated possession early in the first half. Abby Wambach set up Masar's goal, playing the ball across the box before Masar beat Breakers keeper Alyssa Naeher. The Breakers (1-2-0, 3 points) had a number of opportunities after Masar's goal, but all were turned away by magicJack keeper Jillian Loyden (12 saves).Read more HERE
Over 1200 people filled the stands and sat on the grass to see this game. A great beginning to what we hope will be the first of many victories. The next game will be Sunday, May 1 against Philadelphia Independence at 4pm ET.

Strikers defeat AtlantaThe Fort Lauderdale Strikers gained their first victory of the season by beating the Atlanta Silverbacks 2-1 in Atlanta.
Fort Lauderdale went ahead in the 14th minute as Martin Nunez calmly chipped the ball over Atlanta’s keeper Felipe Quintero. Aaron Wheeler assisted on the goal as he controlled a Paulinho pass and then played it down into the path of Nunez for the chip. The goal is Nunez's first of the season.Read more HERE
Minutes later, Mexican International Mario Perez launched violent shot from just outside the box past Strikers keeper Nic Platter. Once the score was leveled, the Silverbacks and the Strikers exchanged opportunities throughout the rest of the half.
Strikers substitute Yoximar Granado was tackled in the box by Atlanta defender Tyler Ruthven in minute 87. Ruthven was shown a yellow card and the Strikers were awarded a penalty. Almost mirroring last weeks match Eduardo Coudet stepped up to the spot and launched the ball past the keeper to give the Strikers its first win of the season.
The Strikers continue their road trip by visiting Div2 Champions Puerto Rico Islanders on Friday April 29 at 8:05 pm in Estadio Juan Ramón Loubriel. You can watch that game live on www.strikers.com

Strikers road trip to Atlanta and MagicJack season opener Saturday.
First off we begin with South Florida United's road trip to Atlanta in support of the Fort Lauderdale Strikers. In case you didn't know, South Florida United is the umbrella group for all South Florida Soccer supporters groups in our area. So far 5 groups are part of the effort to unify everyone who loves the beautiful game. If you have a supporters group join SFU!Members of the Miami Ultras and Flight 19 took it upon themselves to organize this first road trip of the season, which also happens to be the first visit of any visiting supporters group to Atlanta.
The Strikers supporters left last night and will enjoy their stay in the greater Atlanta area vising a few cool tourist sites and meeting up with the Atlanta Silverbacks supporters group Westside 109.
Following are pictures of the trip so far.

WPS team MagicJack starts off their season this Saturday, as they challenge the Boston Breakers in Boca Raton. MagicJack was set to start their season last week but a thunderstorm canceled the game.
Regrettably very little has been released from the team, notably the website is not even up yet... But what we do know is that MagicJack has a great team that should, at least in my opinion fight for the championship. The team will be playing in Boca Raton on the campus of Florida Atlantic University.
Following is the full home schedule:

NSR: Friendly Fires "Live Those Days Tonight"
I mentioned this track a while back but now there is a video to give context to the lyrics so it deserves a rewind. Actually the video itself is a rewind back to the early days of rave and for an olde, reformed ravehead like me it's a trip. Can't believe some of the crap clothes and even worse dances we used to rock. F*** me.
Titi Talks American Fans in Dirty Red Bull Arena
Two things tell you that this interview was filmed in pre-season. The first is that the pitch at Red Bull Arena looks like it is ready for tractor pull. The second is that, following the "incident" in the San Jose game last week, there is NO WAY his answer about his relationship with the fans would be so bland.
5 (Count 'em, 5!) Burning Questions
Run-DMB back to MLS? This is the first I'm hearing of it. Did ESPN just make this up to have a 5th question?

D.C. v. New York: The Beef Is Back!
Yes, yes y'all! The original MLS big beef is back tonight and I for one couldn't be more stoked about it. With all due respect to the Trillium Cup-ers, the LA derby duo and the Rocky Mountain Cup crew this is the O.G. must-see game. Seriously, there is more hate going on between these two towns than in the entire collected works of Clayton Bigsby. Can't. Wait.

Today in Celebrity Glory-Seeking
The Union have claimed one of Philadelphia's favorite sons, ?uestlove from The Roots, as one of their own today by lacing him with the custom kit. If this new relationship ends in the annual Roots picnic being staged at PPL Park I will call it a success. But as Chad Ochocino's closet full of custom kits from the Crew, D.C. United and Sporting K.C. has shown us gifts don't secure celebrity loyalty.
And can't NY make a claim to him as well? Dude stays in the city now that he's on Jimmy Fallon everyday.
Speaking on NY there's a celebrity soccer match at Chelsea Piers on Saturday. It features everyone from John McEnroe to John O'Brien, Ethan Hawke to Ethan Zohn and is in conjunction with the Tribeca Film Festival. If you are in town and down to gawk at Gael Garcia Bernal and Cobi Jones you should come through.

VIDEO: Street Soccer New York Trailer
For a minute I thought NYC street soccer was finally going to get the And1 Mixtape Tour treatment. But then I Googled this film and found out it was about street soccer aka homeless soccer not playing soccer in the actual street. Still good stuff though, check 'em out on the interwebs if feeling inspired is your cup of tea.

WPS - MagicJack
One of the first things we spoke about on the show was South Florida's new Women's Professional Soccer team called MagicJack. The team was set to start it's season this past weekend when they visited the Philadelphia Independence but the game was postponed due to a thunderstorm.
MagicJack will now play its season opener at 7:00 pm this Saturday April 23 at FAU Soccer Field in Boca Raton versus the Boston Breakers.
Not very much is known about MagicJack. For some reason details about the team has been limited, but fear not, their website seems to be under construction so that is a good sign... I think.

NSR: Jamaica "Short and Entertaining"
Ever wonder what Phoenix would sound like if they were produced by Justice, engineered by Daft Punk and dressed like the dirty heshers that hung out in the off-campus parking lot in highschool? No? Too bad because Jamaica actually DO sound like Phoenix, WERE produced by Xavier from Justice AND used Daft Punk's engineer on their debut album.
I totally forgot about these guys but they played 3 shows in the city this weekend and it kind of reminded me how awesome uber-French pop music with Camaro-rock & coke-house tendencies can be. Get familiar (if you're not already) and catch them live before they f*** off back to France.
Oh and BTW that's Iggor Cavalera from Sepultura on drums but just just for the video. Weird, right?
VIDEO: LIVESTRONG Sporting Park Peek
Our man Beans from TOW recently took a walk through LIVESTRONG Sporting Park with Teal Boon Boo Ree. Place is coming together, right? Loving the roof; after staying dry during the monsoon at the RBNY game this Saturday I feel like they're the move that pushes your stadium from Kip Winger to Kanye West on the ballin' outta control scale. Nothing says "luxurious soccer experience" like defying the elements.

Hey Look, Vancouver has Supporters Too
There's been loads of talk about the Cascadia clubs and their supporters this season but I feel like one thing has been conspicuously absent: Vancouver supporters? Those guys get ZERO attention...and when they do it's for the wrong reasons. But apparently they've gone the route of a half-dozen or so small groups instead of one large mass so maybe that's the reason for the low visibility.
So in lieu of the love afforded their counterparts in Northwest from the media, the 'Caps have taken it upon themselves to talk up their supporters. I would like to make a joke here but nothing comes to mind. Feel free to make your own.
