Your Daily Dynamo

By: Daryl | Comments 6 Comments

Oscar De La Hoya will be purchasing 50 % of the Dynamo from AEG.
If you read the article it states that Oscar will own 25% and his partners managing group will own the other 25%, I can understand AEG selling off this stake somewhat….but if you want to sell a team wouldn’t you want [...]

Nice Ianni Article

By: Marc | Comments No Comments

The Lodi News has a nice report on MLS Cup and Patrick Ianni (who is from Lodi).
A quote from Patrick:
“It’s not the championships that make it worthwhile, but the relationships, the community involvement. It’s about sacrificing for each other. When people sacrifice for each other, it’s one of the most beautiful things in life. The [...]

Cochrane First Selection in Expansion Draft

By: Marc | Comments No Comments

Just three days after winning his second MLS Cup with Houston, Ryan Cochrane is now an Earthquake. He was the first selection by Frank Yallop in the expansion draft. There’s a nice article about it in the Mercury News. The interesting thing is that Ryan apparently had asked Houston coach Dominic Kinnear to leave him [...]

By: Marc | Comments No Comments

You can find a list of the players Houston have left unprotected in the draft here. Most interesting names are Pat Onstad, Ryan Cochrane, Paul Daglish, and Craig Waibel.
The Expansion Draft takes place on Wednesday, so we’ll soon know if any of these players are snapped up by San Jose. (It’s a max of one [...]

ESPN’s Carlisle Projects Houston Win

By: Marc | Comments 1 Comment

EPSN’s Jeff Carlisle gives his analysis of the two teams in this year’s MLS Cup final (Houston and New England) and concludes with the Dynamo winning 1-0.
His evaluations are interesting, as he weighs the forwards, midfields, defense, bench, and intangibles. I’m not quite sure I agree with the low score, however. The biggest intangible for [...]

Waibel: Tougher than Chuck Norris

By: Marc | Comments 1 Comment

Check out this hilarious article about the Houston Dynamo’s Craig Waibel legendary toughness.
A highlight:
No, Craig Waibel’s tears don’t cure cancer — a takeoff on one of the most popular Chuck Norris “facts,” which have become an Internet phenomenon. Waibel can’t divide by zero, kill two stones with one bird or count to infinity. No way [...]

Ching Doubtful for MLS Cup

By: Marc | Comments 2 Comments

According to this report, Houston’s Brian Ching is unlikely to be fit for Sunday’s MLS Cup final against the New England Revolution. They are calling his injury a “calf strain” and while it sounds like there’s chance he might be available, it’s unlikely.
While this is a blow for Houston, it certainly doesn’t rule them out [...]

Time Warp: MLS Cup 06 Repeat!

By: Marc | Comments 4 Comments

Tonight the Houston Dynamo defeat the Kansas City Wizards 2-0 and will face the New England Revolution Nov. 18 in the MLS Cup. This is a repeat of last year’s MLS Cup (I believe that’s the first time that’s happened back-to-back).
Terrific game, with Nate Jaqua scoring in the first half and De Rosario putting one [...]
