Your Daily Dynamo

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 | 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 [...]

By: Marc | 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 [...]

Check out this hilarious article about the Houston Dynamo’s Craig Waibel legendary toughness.
A highlight:

I know this is rather dated news, but I came across this article which details the Houston Dynamo’s individual awards for this season.
Some of the highlights: Onstad and Mullan share the MVP award, Ngwenya gets the Golden Boot, Robinson is Defender of the Year, and Waibel is Humanitarian. Cool stuff.
Ching Doubtful for MLS Cup
By: Marc | 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 [...]

By: Marc | No Comments
Just saw this article:
The Houston Dynamo has secured home-field advantage in the first round of the 2007 MLS Cup playoffs following the Oct. 11 scoreless draw between FC Dallas and Chivas USA.
I hadn’t realized that the Dallas draw meant that they can’t catch Houston (Dallas has only one game left in the season), so the [...]

I came across this intersting post from former Dynamo Kelly Gray. He talks about the upcoming Galaxy-Dynamo game and says:
I am really excited to go to Houston because I still have a lot of good friends there. My fiancé, Kassie, is already there and we are going to stay an extra day so we [...]
