My predictions will be put to the test today as FC Dallas and what I consider the weakest defense in the league (next to Toronto) takes on a potent offense led by the likes of Landon Donovan. With Alan Gordon out, Robbie Findley will see more time and his first go was a good one. He's strong, fast, and looks real ready to contribute this season. Dallas could get burned, but their offense is strong enough to get an early lead and hold on. Or as we saw against Real Salt Lake, if the Galaxy don't put a good hurting on FCD early, there could be hell to pay. Look for Cooper and Ruiz to combine for 30 goals this year, barring no injuries. Have fun watching your first MLS Primetime Thursday on ESPN2. Jim Rome as guest commentator? No.
Prediction: LA, 2-1...a goal by Landon and another by Albright. FCD gets a good amount of chances but no conversions. Ruiz tallies another.
Player to Watch: Robbie Findley
Really Odd Sidenote: Everybody dreams, but my dream (which conveniently I don't remember) last night resulted in me waking up this past morning with my Los Angeles Galaxy jersey, still on hanger, clutched in my hands like a frickin' teddy bear. How do I bet against that sign? Or was it my subconscious excitement for the prospects of the Galaxy? Landycakes? DBecks? I really don't know, but that was odd. I have about 15 jerseys hangin' on my wall and I pick, in my sleep, the Galaxy's. Interpretations (the less you mock, the better)????
