I felt a few quakes growing up in Missouri. One of the largest faults in North America sits in the middle of the country, causing an 8.6 quake in 1811. Caused the Mississippi River to run backwards and permanently changed its course in a couple of areas.
Been a few articles saying Ronaldo will run his contract out with Madrid which has 2 seasons left on it and will be coming to the MLS to either LA or Orlando.

But it's harder still to ignore six points from their last two games, so here they are at No. 9.

United were at their best last season when Fabian Espindola and Luis Silva were starting together. With neither in the lineup, they've been punchless.

Having Kaká go 1-vs-5 with the ball is occasionally an acceptable tactic; having Kevin Molino try the same never is. OCSC's attack needs sorting out.

Brady is not a bad name for a kid. Good job you didn't go for Snodgrass, the missus would never have forgiven you. Welcome to the Hull City AFC board.
You should be able to find any individual game highlights on youtube, the MLS isnt as particular about trying to stop that kind of thing like the PL is.
Cheers fella. For some reason I can't see the highlights anymore on MLS site due to GB location. Showed the first week of fixtures. I presume it's down to Sky getting rights is it?
That's possible, I would still think you should be able to find it on YouTube, or the individual teams website you follow. What team do you follow again? I forgot.
There's a MLS app on the App Store that has all the match highlights.Not sure if it's available on other platforms though.
Following DC for the Sunderland connection, Sounders caught my eye in the first game to so keeping tabs on them. First season of taking an interest in the league so I'll get to grips with it as time goes on and you never know, I might grow attached to a team. All I know is that I need something different from the hell my team are in here. Just to enjoy some football without the presures and disgust with my Sunderland and the league we play in.
Im not saying that you shouldnt follow DC, just that you should pick a team based off what you like in a team. Do what I did before I started following HCAFC. Write down (mentally, or physically) the qualities you like in a team, the fans and the city they represent. Then find the team that fits what you like in a team rather than some other method of picking a team. You will find that doing it that way works out better in the end. Here are your DC United highlights from last week. I can post them every week if you want along with a couple other teams I know people are following.
That's what I'm doing marra. Following DC is completely out of interest but as time goes by i'll find a team that's for me that I can call my team so to speak. I'm completely open to any team at the moment. Cheers for the highlights fella. Is there a match of the day style program? All the highlights in one?
No we dont have a MOD. We have ESPN Sportscenter which show highlights from every sport 24 hours a day 7 days a week. So if you want highlights you just sit down and watch. They have a ticker on the left that shows you the order of the games they will be talking about so if they are on about the NBA for a while you just come back later. Your local news will also show the local team highlights but for every game you just watch sportscenter which is on one of the dozen ESPN channels. You know that joke in Dodge Ball about ESPN Ocho? Thats basically how it is there are like 12 ESPN channels.
Oh sweet I see, how would I view that mate without downloading anything? Can I just stream the channel?
I suppose if you can stream other channels you can stream sportscenter. I have never heard of anyone doing that though. I would be a little surprised if anyone was illegally streaming a show like that as its just a news program about sports it doesnt really show anything. People stream games that are on ESPN clearly but as far as sportscenter goes, I dont know about that. If you have Sky Sports then you can watch the MLS highlights as they bought the rights to all MLS games so you should have a show in England that is already doing that for you.
