So Hassli isn't a DP for us... didn't know that. Funny that our two current DPs are midfielders (Ferreira and Castillo).

I thought Castillo was only a DP his first year when he transferred over and then went to a regular MLS salary?

I believe he is stil a young DP.

From wiki

quote:

Starting with the 2012 season, the rule was changed with respect to younger players. MLS announced the changes in August 2011 after clubs expressed concern about signing young international players with no guarantees that they would develop into stars.

Designated Players over the age of 23 will carry a salary budget charge of $350,000, unless the player joins his club in the middle of the season, in which case his budget charge will be $175,000.
Designated Players 21–23 years old count as $200,000 against the club’s salary budget.
Designated Players 20 years old or younger count as $150,000 against the club’s salary budget.
The budget charge for the midseason signing of a young Designated Player (23 years old and younger) is $150,000 and this amount cannot be lowered with allocation funds.
Clubs will not have to buy the third DP roster slot to accommodate Designated Players 23 years old and younger.
Age of player is determined by year (not date) of birth.
For the 2013 season, the maximum budget charge for Designated Players over age 23 was increased to $368,750; it remained unchanged for younger players, as well as those who joined the club in the midseason transfer window

My mind is blown. How do we give up 2 goals in the last 8 minutes again?!? I'm glad for the point but this shite is unacceptable. We should have had 3.

Cooper needs to put his shots on frame. I also hate seeing him being played as an outside mid.

Positive note, Michel is definitely our best off-season acquisition. His fks have been

I thought we were fortunate to have a 2 goal lead. Didn't look good at all in this game IMHO. I thought the Jackson red card was ridiculous. The opposing player was all over him. Whistle should have already been blown. Hope GJ and AJ get healed up. We need those two! Still at the top of the table with this weekend off to rest up some of our guys! Still in great shape!!

George and Jacobson out due to injury and Jackson for his red card. Woodberry gets his first MLS start. Oh, and we have two keepers on the bench

They were greatly missed. Watson in the middle is a huge step down from AJ. Anytime George "Brick Wall" John is out, our defense is noticeably not as strong. Although I love Jackson, his absence was of the least importance since we have Castillo who has several starts in MLS under his belt.

uh......what you talking about Willis?

That's what ESPN showed... not my fault. I was too lazy to edit since no one was commenting.

Jackson would have been nice, as a sub.

I'm hoping to make it. My summer plans got screwed up when my landlord decided to give the house I've been renting the last 4 years to his kid though.

I just wanted to jump in here, I went to the DC United game back in May, had a great time. I am a fan of the sport, and in the process of moving to Dallas, so I hope to take in many more games this year. That is all.
