du Nord, August 7, 2012
STARTERS Bill Archer of Big Soccer with a fantastic tribute to the late Kirk Urso. dN I think the delay call against the Canada goalkeeper in the Olympic Women's Soccer Semifinal was totally bogus. OK, so she delayed a little bit, but show me a keeper who doesn't do that with the lead. Terrible call in an amazing game. -Dan Wetzel of Yahoo talks to Abby Wambach about the play, and how Wambach more than likely influenced the referees call. Great article. dN Rangers website says that all 3 Americans, Carlos Bocanegra, Mo Edu and Ale Bedoya are leaving the team. -This on the day when Rangers returned to the field as a fourth tier team and played in the first round of the league cup, with Carlos Bocanegra at centerback. dN Mexico has qualified for the Final of the Men's Olympic Soccer Tournament. -Yes I am very jealous. dN Tomorrow morning I will be careening my way south to KC for the Open Cup Final, so a couple of guests will fill in on planet du Nord!
