I love this blog and have been reading it for almost 2 years now, but lately the articles have been way too long.

Yeah, I may be on the 2Gs today to talk about Claudio Reyna's career. I'm driving north on business today and it really depends on where I am on I-95 in North Florida at the time and whether the cell reception is decent.

A great career was Reyna's one of the greatest ever for an American footballer.

You make a great case for the City/MLS connection.They certainly have great fans .

When Claudio Reyna was their I always wanted to see them on FSC so I could follow the American captain. Juan Carlos Osorio has become a named coach in the MLS, however, I think his skills are limited to that of a technical director. I saw too many games in Chicago designed for a draw.

In any event, City has had a big impact in the US and should be proud of it!

mate,
I love City and watching the MLS but you'd have to concede that the City/MLS link is tenuous at best. The players you mentioned can all be considered journeymen and to consider these players 'recent' signings is laughable. Reyna is the only one to play for us in the last 4 seasons. Keep writing about City & the MLS but this is lazy.
