Dynamo, Revs Lock Up Again

By: Jeremy | Comments No Comments

Your Houston Dynamo and rival New England Dance Revolution are both trying to climb from the depths of their respective divisions. Last week, the Revs suffered a 6-0 drumming in Salt Lake while the Orange roughed up some kids from Laredo. Despite the positive outlook for the Dynamo given this recent history, there are other [...]

Ching Goes To 11

By: Jeremy | Comments No Comments

Just a quick one before getting to the pre-game post…
Here’s an article from our very own Brian Ching in the New York Times. He discusses his ultimate team. Apparently the commenters don’t agree.
I’ll be back soon with thoughts on this weekend’s match against the Revs.

A Random Cheap Shot

By: Jeremy | Comments 2 Comments

In an effort to contain the swine flu outbreak, all nine Mexican first-division football games this weekend will be played behind closed doors. These matches will be played without fans, much like FC Dallas games.
Ah, that was too easy.

Update From Here to There

By: Jeremy | Comments 3 Comments

After swimming to work this morning I was checking the Dynamo news and came across this interesting article. It’s one of the Orange faithful updating Burnley FC on the progress of Ade Akinbiyi. Give it a read.
Also, this photo is of Burnley’s mascot. Isn’t it odd to have a person as a mascot? I’m guessing [...]

A Poll And A Pointless Victory

By: Jeremy | Comments 1 Comment

No points were awarded in the standings, but still a meaningful match for the Dynamo as they defeated the Laredo Heat 4-0 on Saturday. The only dark spot seemed to be a broken nose suffered by Danny Cruz.
Read the details here and here.
With that, who do you think is the Dynamo’s most dangerous offensive weapon [...]

Extension For Kinnear

By: Jeremy | Comments No Comments

Not hair extensions, as might be suggested by the photo, but a contract extension through at least 2012. Terms of the deal were not released but it is said that he received a raise, and well deserved I might add. In my opinion, Dom should be ranked among Bum Phillips and Rudy T as Houston’s [...]

Free Ballin’

By: Jeremy | Comments 2 Comments

Your Houston Dynamo will entertain you with a friendly this weekend. Best of all, it’s free. How’s that for a slice of fried gold? The opposing side will be none other than the Laredo Heat (not to be confused with Latino Heat). Kickoff is scheduled for 10:00am at Robertson Stadium or the Carl “Uh-oh” Lewis [...]

One For The Ladies…

By: Richard | Comments 1 Comment

Ok, so here on the Dynamo page we’ve been running a March Madness-style knockout tournament trying to decide which team has the “best” cheerleading squad. So to even the balance, we decided to run this post for da ladies….
I have yet to figure out quite exactly what Jeremy (Dynamo page co-blogger) was doing on [...]

DeRo Trade: Revisited

By: Jeremy | Comments No Comments

In December 2008, shockwaves rumbled through Houston’s soccer community when the beloved Dwayne De Rosario was sent to Toronto FC for a rookie defender and minimal cash. Why would Houston agree to a deal with so little in return? With three first-round picks in the upcoming draft surely Toronto could have given more. Is it [...]

Pat “The Cat” Does It Again. Dynamo Down Raging Rapids

By: Richard | Comments 6 Comments

Houston Dynamo 1-0 Colorado Rapids.
Phew!! The Dynamo finally get the win they have been looking for, thanks largely to the big man between the sticks. Thank God for that. Now perhaps we can focus on actually playing some decent football.
So on a truly warm day in Houston (Mr Akinbiyi…), some of my personal [...]
