The 2009 New York Red Bulls season, and the team's 14-year stay at Giants Stadium, will end just after 9:30pm ET tomorrow night. It's fitting that tomorrow's match, versus playoff hopeful Toronto FC, will be played on a wet, slick, artificial surface covered with football lines. While Giants Stadium has hosted plenty of meaningful soccer matches in its day, the third-class treatment that the NJ Stadium...
Another action-packed weekend of Major League Soccer action saw a few draws which helped neither side in their attempts to reach the all-important post-season playoffs. New England Revolution headed to New Jersey on Friday evening hoping to pick up three valuable points against New York Red Bulls , and it looked for a while like they might succeed. Some great fancy footwork by Sainey Nyassi took him...

As surprising as it might sound, New York returned to their recent form by not losing, drawing 1-1 with the New England Revolution at Giants Stadium. New England took the lead in the 13th minute through Sainey Nyassi, with the Red Bulls coming back to equalize in the 69th when John Wolyniec scored. New York had a chance to take three points late, but Macoumba Kandji couldn't keep his shot on frame....
Although John Wolyniec scored a second-half goal that enabled the New York Red Bulls to gain a 1-all draw with their biggest nemesis, the New England Revolution, it was a call not made that was the topic of conversation.

John Wolyniec is my dog. He and Seth Stammler are the current and potentially eternal holders of the TOR Award For All-Around Nice Guys Who Are Not Flashy, Play Well and Give No Drama™. I didn't know he was a guitar player though; this is what I get for going to the stadium pub before the game and not after the game. I bet if I stuck around long enough "Long Island" Mike Petke would...
Somebody posted a comment to the Age of MLS Golden Boot Winners post which inspired this post. Man, 2001 was really pathetic wasn't it? Moreso if you look at the full leaderboard . Wynalda was the only American in the top ten. Jeff Cunningham was counted from 2002 on, as he received his citizenship after the 2001 season. In 13 seasons, only 56 different players have made one of these top tens. How...
