The new 2011 Away kit. The big question is, will we ever wear it?

Hmm..it reminds me of last season's training top..I kind of like the long sleeve version though..as far as using it, there's the away game against NY, Columbus possibly, and I'm guessing it'll be used for some games of the CCL..

Adam is the best Bruce and LA can do? His numbers are wack! "12 goals and six assists in 68 career regular season games" LA needs to look at Central and South America for strikers.

Our LA Galaxy have acquired forward Adam Cristman from D.C. United on Tuesday. We gave them our first round supplemental draft pick in exchange. Link to article below:

Personally, I'm pretty happy with it. Not an amazing talent, but we got him at a good price. He is very much better than Magee. Though it is kind of funny that Cristman went to UVA AND played at DC United (both Bruce Arena's former stomping grounds).

I agree, when you look at it in terms of improvement, yeah, Christman is an improvement over Magee, but NOT over Buddle. We still need to fill those shoes before I can properly relax.

We need a big target forward who can hold the ball up and lay it off to donovan and midfield runners, good uns dont come cheap.

JPA. That and running in on crosses are his bread and butter. I won't feel bad about losing Buddle if we can sign JPA.

CARSON, Calif. – The LA Galaxy today acquired forward Adam Cristman from D.C. United in exchange for the Galaxy’s first round pick in the upcoming 2011 MLS Supplemental Draft. A four-year MLS veteran, Cristman spent the first two years of his career with the New England Revolution before joining the Kansas City Wizards (now Sporting Kansas City) in 2009 and D.C. United last year.
Cristman, who turned 26 last week, has 12 goals and six assists in 68 career regular season games. A strong and powerful forward, he was a finalist for the MLS Rookie of the Year award in 2007 when he had four goals and four assists in a career-high 28 games with the Revolution. A year later, Cristman scored a career-best six goals despite being limited to just 18 games because of a toe injury. He was traded to Kansas City prior to the start of the 2009 season, but he was limited to just five appearances because of a fractured metatarsal that required surgery.
Cristman was on the move again prior to the start of the 2010 season, joining D.C. United. He appeared in 17 games for United last season, making eight starts while tallying two goals and an assist.
A native of Glen Allen, Va., Cristman played four years at the University of Virginia, scoring 34 goals and adding 15 assists while helping lead the Cavaliers to the NCAA Tournament four times. He was selected by New England in the fourth round of the 2007 MLS SuperDraft.

Your right Sergio, pretty weak signing. From what I've heard Bruce is playing Donovan as a forward this year, but there is this good Ecuadorian striker in the draft this year we maybe could of picked up. Oh well.

I hope we trade him for mula, we need someone better than him. We are the damn GALAXY!!!

according to their last update:

But the club also picked up Juan Pablo Ángel in the Re-Entry Draft. Thus far, however, the two sides have not come to an agreement over a contract.

It's that awkward part of the jersey like the space in between your balls and brown eye.

the taint gets a bad rap

Urban Dictionary
1. taint
The area between the nutsack and asshole that prevent a man from shitting on his nuts. See durf.
If it wasn't for the taint, my nuts would reek of poo!

That formal education is really paying dividends lol "I only thought I knew what taint meant" God I've missed this site.

[MDM]

Like others have said lets just hope Crist
man is the replacement for Gordon. Agree Sergio,hard for me to believe we can't find a diamond in the rough in Central or South America.
