Crazy-Looking MLS Soccer Photos with Flickr Slideshow

I have learned that flickr can add pizzazz to any blog.  So, to make my statement true, I want to add these 4 photos and see what you guys think of how a crazy still picture can create a crazy slideshow.  From a high-flying header, to a colliding slide tackle, these pictures are pretty crazy looking. I hope you guys take some time out to add your own comments to these pictures to tell me how dynamic they look!

Here is the link to the slideshow: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kdorsey702/sets/72157626417575405/show/

An Exceptional MLS Soccer Wiki

A great Wiki page to check out is, http://soccer.wikia.com/wiki/Major_League_Soccer.  It features every team in the MLS league and gives a breakdown of when each team joined the league.  It goes into explanation of how each team started and what former leagues they were apart of before joining the MLS.  It even gives detailed logo pictures on each individual team page to offer you a glimpse at the team's colors and logos, future and former logo pictures to be exact.

This is a great way to familiarize yourself with the league if you are a new fan to the MLS.  You can get a great grasp on the basics of every team.  Although, it has no information on players or past game news.  But like I said, it is a great page to familiarize all of the new MLS soccer fans with the basics and a little history on every team.

The Philadelphia Union Loses First Loss to Los Angeles Galaxy, 1-0


In the 33rd minute, Beckham curled a kick to Leonardo who headed a shot right past the inside of the left post right past the Union's goalkeeper, Stefani Miglioranzi.  That shot was the only score of the evening, giving Philadelphia Union their first loss of the season.

The first half of the game was overtaken by the Galaxy's offense.  They carried that pressure to the 60th minute and were able to keep the Union's offense at bay.  Beckham was a key player (as always) with the free kick attempts and corners that were handled by his expertise.  The Union was flustered during most of the game due to the Galaxy and the fouls that were forced on the Union's end of the field.
