Read my blog for the real scoop.

Looking forward to the piece on Hamlett - I'm headed over to read about Gallardo right now! Thanks!

From previous post!!

Awwwwwww so I hear that the Screaming Eagles went crying and whinning to Payne & Co. because Barra Brava was going to be the one unfolding the new huge jersey , they said "but we want to be the 1st to do it ITS NOT FAIR WAWAAWWAAWAW" u know what.......what a bunch of pus..ies come on now ! but we dont care .... we jump and cheer u grab the damn jersey!!! we rather not do it at all than to do it with u guys sorry u just suck lol !! c u 2morrow have fun with the jersey!!

hope there is a good sized crowd tomorrow...

Please grill Garber with all of the tough questions, especially the comment he made after we lost at Pachuca. That leaves a very bitter taste in my mouth.

Don't forget to mention to the commish that the Russian club and Rangers have both had matches postponed for the UEFA Cup.

Nice profile on Gallardo Mr. Goff.
I thought his comment about his wife's defect was pretty funny.
Thank you for giving us something informative to read about our new #10.

DCU Maniac:
There is no need for that sort of name calling. All DCU supporters groups are on the same side. There is no reason to antagonize anyone.

@DCU Maniac

Hmmmm - I love you supporters groups and am even a member of one with friends in the other. Don't let childish crap blow up the greatest deal in ALLL of sports.

Show some maturity.

Barca-Real today, and there's a tradition that's going to be really embarrassing for Barca. Apparently, when a champion has been crowned, the opposing team forms a pasillo -- a tunnel -- for Real to run through (Marca.com has images/video). How humbling...

GREAT profile written for Gallardo and I admire for the post to have nice big picture on the sports section front page in color.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...........i was writing a whole bunch of things u know what im sorry i just had to get it out of my system al is good enjoy the game tomorrow

Cry Baby Punks!!!

Come on DCU!!!! You gotta beat Chicago!!! Show that Cuatemoc guy, how fake of a player he is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DCU!!! A la carga!!! A destruir el Chicago Fire!!! Yehhahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!! Opps... I sound like Howard Dean.

DCU Maniac if you need to get something out of your system you have 90 minutes to do it tomorrow. :)

Barra is strong in stands not internet.

@DCU Maniac

I know - I just feel like the Barra Brava and the Screaming Eagles need to make sure they coexist as peacefully as possible. I'm fine with them both wanting to be distinct and operate their organizations differently - it's what makes United great. But I'm not fine with anything that would ever jeopardize their standing with the club or give the club anything it would have to apologize for to the league (ie behavior, bottle throwing, safety issues).

That aside, I'm really hoping that RFK bounces like no other and that the new 49850 text promotion is a Free Car for a hat trick from a player.

I like the VW full page ad on the back of the sports section. They are really splashing out the cash. Was the line in their about the people wanting more scoring and less diving directed at Blanco?

Goff,

Excellent work on the Gallardo piece.

"So you'll have extra time to enjoy the tailgating in your VW-paid parking space."

in the pouring rain :-/

Hey DCU Maniac come on dude show some respect dont make us look bad who cares dude we do what we do in every game regardless of if we have a giant jersey or not we have to go out there and do what we do best support United thats all. Dont worry about the rest

VAMOS UNITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i'm not a member of either SE or BB but i'm surprised at the rivalry between. i don't know the specifics and i don't care to know them. all i know is you guys are there for a common cause. who cares who holds a jersey? as long as it's displayed well, it's doing what it's meant to do. now i've sat with both groups and never have i felt any friction. i hope these little mishaps are every once in a while, and i'm not just being naive.

U tell him Srdan , he is right DCU Maniac you have 90 minutes! dont mess with the eagles!!! they do what they do and we do what we do its all good!!!!!
Hey ruso what happened last game u didnt go?

Oh no, maybe BB will decide to shift over again, leaving a gaping whole on the side...

who cares i just hate cry babies ok i'll stop ........

hey 135(fernano) i sent u a face book friend request

Maniac i dont have a request besides i dont even know who the hell you are lol talk to me tomorrow at the tailgate ir at the ticket window

@RK we proved our point once dont worry we wont do it again theres no need!

Whoops...meant "hole", of course.

Waaaaaaaaaarriors come out and Plaaaaaaayyy!

Love the reference to Maradona as "the keg-shaped superstar" in the Gallardo piece.

Great piece on Gallardo. It is good to know more about the person. I am looking forward to seeing the team come together as the season progresses.

What I don't get is that some in BB claim to support the team and only the team, but yet these same BB idiots complain about what other independent supporter groups do or don't do.. As a BB, I could care less about what the SE's, LN or the quiet side do or don't do (or even how they go about doing things). As a BB, DCU Maniac, you need to quit your fetish with other groups and support United and your fellow Barra brothers and sisters.

The only enemy is the other team...

"Stop fighting! We should be united against the common enemy! "The Judean People's Front"!!!"

We're the judean people's front! You mean the 'people's front of Judea!'

Splitters!

We are DC United. NEVER FORGET THAT!

VAMOS UNITED!!

Great job on the Gallardo piece, Steve.

Gallardo's phone call from Maradona would be akin to me getting a phone call from... from... well, Steven Goff!

I heard it was the Barra who cried and said they wouldn't participate in the jersey unwrap. It's become a big dick swinging contest now between these two supporters clubs.

You heard wrong.

Not really, it was from a source close to the team. Whatever, like I said competition between those two groups has become fierce and I can see these two groups sitting in different places when a new stadium is built.

Maybe your source forgot to mention that the Barra said let the screagles do it after they called complaining. The Barra has their own thing going on. Whatever, you're right though. Hopefully we'll be far apart in the new stadium.

You heard wrong Sam, or your source misinterpreted it. My source was my mouth and ears ;)

Hopefully right about new stadium, I don't see any negatives in it :)

I really like the fact that going three seasons without winning an MLS Cup, despite the two Supporters' Shields, is considered a "drought" and is therefore unacceptable.

Man, I love this team!!

Aw screw it, maybe my source did get it wrong. Not trying to pick a fight here. I'm not a member of any supporters club, I just show up and root for DCU so i don't have any feelings about either group but I've noticed there are bad feelings of between both groups.

Barra Brava members let's concentrate on Today's WIN and NOT on other supporters group.

Let's ROCK the F.... stands.
Good luck to all

The Eagles wanted to co-hoist the jersey with the Barra, with one half of the jersey over 134 and the other half over 135. That would have been a nice show of unity at a major moment in United's business history. Frankly, it's a bummer that that isn't going to happen.

For the record, there was never a moment where the jersey was going to be "given" to any one supporters group. The team owns it and is keeping it.

The fact that dc owns the jersey is very true but the FO was gonna give it to BB for this particular game offcourse we had to give it back but as El Jefe said lets concentrate on the game and no the others supporters clubs or the Jersey !!!

VAMOS UNITED!!!!!!!!!!

135 - you're wrong. Both clubs were asked to assist.

Now, let's focus on the game. Chicago is playing very well and our bogeyman, so we need to bring it for the full 90 tonight, rain or shine.

ok Paul if you say so!

Lets beat those MFers from chicago !

u must have been there as i was but hey oh well!!
