A Soccer Soldier Dies (and your weekend TV options)

This puts things in perspective.

While I was relaxing by a San Diego pool much of this week, a member of the LA Riot Squad was dying so I could do that.

My condolences to Gunner and the Riot Squad.

The memorial service is Tuesday.

Soccer goes on:

Saturday
2 a.m. U.S. Women’s Olympic Team-Japan on USA
5 p.m. Chivas USA-Kansas City Wizards on Prime

Sunday
4:30 a.m. U.S. Men’s Olympic Team-Holland on USA
7 a.m. Charity Shield Portsmouth-Manchester United on Fox Soccer Channel (can you believe the English season is cranking up again already)?

A few days after Galaxy GM Alexi Lalas tells me Carlos Ruiz is not going anywhere, Steven Goff supplies the trade rumor of the week.

Have a safe weekend.

RIP Private Jair De Jesus Garcia
