Video: Juan Pablo Angel is Ready for His Close-Up



Juan Pablo Angel's spending some of his injury downtime in front of the camera for ESPN's Euro 08 coverage. The clip above was from yesterday; you can see him again today in the Portuguese v. Germany post-game show. Good job by RBNY & MLS to keep up his profile while he's on the shelf.

So um, what's Reyna doing with his downtime? Is it just me or does he keep an amazingly low profile for such a highly paid, highly touted player? You never see him doing things like this. I've been to 2 "Meet the Team" functions in the past year and he was the only player not there. It's like he owes us all money he borrowed and is avoiding us.

Claudio, Claudio. Where for art thou Claudio?

How about the game last night? It was like JCO started Stammler, Conway, Richards, VDB, and a bunch of guys only a hardcore fan has heard of, and they nutted up big time. Really shoulda won that game.

I was rather impressed with the resolve, and with JCO as a coach to get at least a road point out of what was essentially a reserve squad.

I agree briguy, sad to not hold on to the win, but all things considered pretty darned good, JCO must have done a good job motivating them (even if it was something to the effect of "repeat the DC performance and I'll loan you to Saudi Arabia"). I like Stammler alot, and Ubiparipovic has his moments that make me think he can develop into a solid player. Let's hope Richards' injury is nothing serious

Regarding the Joachim Low's sending off for bickering during a replay of that incident.

Sigh.

He does owe us and he is avoiding us because he knows one of us would go studs up to the gonadal regions in two seconds.
