Yep. Read it US Air magazine it is returning to Rhode Island this month. They race catamarans now. I'm curious which one of those 3 will win the ratings war!

Funny funny. Actually enjoy the America's Cup. MLS is third in attendance in the US so it matter a little. Just seeing if anyone else watches.

Best story of the cup so far: Cal FC...

Artur Aghasyan finished a breakaway five minutes into overtime, and Cal FC fended off wave after wave of attacks by the Portland Timbers to stun the Major League Soccer side, 1-0, in a third-round clash at Jeld-Wen Field, a result that shook the foundations of American soccer.

Yeah but Eric Wynalda's weekend team is now gone. Here's to hoping one of the 3 USL teams left makes it to semis.

Seriously though - everyone in the office is still laughing over Dayton Dutch Lions beating Columbus Crew. I mean we only supply what half of the teams in it?

It was fun while it lasted. I really do think that Harrisburg City will be Philadelphia though. Should be fun to watch.

Can't root for the USL squads. The ownership/leadership of that league is pretty awful with one or two exceptions. NASL all the way!
