Soccer '05!

A busy year already for my soccer writing.

I started by resigning my post as the beat journalist covering the Colorado Rapids MLS team for American Soccer News.

Instead, I'm going freelance!

My first piece of the new year is all fun and rumor, something I couldn't really engage in last year. A bit liberating, definitely different.

This piece is the current lead story on RapidsFan.com.

In case RapidsFan is eaten by a dragon or something, you can always find the article on my SoccerNation.info Articles '05 page for January 7th.

Read a bit more about my going independent here, at least for a while. The American Soccer News guys are top notch soccer journalists and professionals. Frustrations arose in my ability to produce good pieces in the horrible environment created by the Colorado Rapids media organization.
