FC Dallas to Manchester United: Bring it on!!!

By: Robert | April 21st, 2008

If FC Dallas is not better than Manchester United then we’re the closest ones. (shout out to Jay-Z)

Yeah, you read that right.

No wait, lemme change something.

FC Dallas is better than Manchester United.

Okay, I’m getting a bit carried away.

As you can tell I’m feeling real good right now. Another 2-0 victory, this time over everyone’s (except mine) preseason favorite to lift silverware, Chivas USA; FC Dallas now stands alone as the only undefeated team in the league.

And while this feeling may pass after New England comes to Texas (they’re tough) for the next few days you’re going to have to deal with the notion of FC Dallas as the best team in the league (suck it Houston). I don’t care that other teams have more points because as of today April 21st, 2008 MLS is a league full of loser’s, except the boys from Frisco. For every team in the league you can make the argument “How could you beat Manchester United, if you can’t beat team ‘X’” But you can’t say that about Dallas – at least not till Thursday (and please don’t talk to me about draws either because I’m in a good place right now, who knows how long this may last, you’d just be harshing my mellow to bring that up.)

Now, I’m not normally one for “power rankings,” teams go up and down based on no real rationale. They can rise when they lose, fall when they win and be ranked lower than a team they actually beat, it seems like nothing more than a sports beauty pageant. But today I’m making an exception. Pick up your papers and read your blogs, if you see one that isn’t written out exactly like this (or some close facsimile) the writer is either an idiot, a moron or from Houston (in which case they’re probably both):

1. FC Dallas
2. Some bums
3. Bunch of losers
4. A group of pansies
5. Another group of pansies
6. Some more bums
7. God, there are a lot of bums in this league
8. These guys suck
9. I don’t care they’re not Dallas
10. Air Bud: World Pup, not the dog himself, an actual DVD of the film
11. Why do they have a team?
12. Some more losers
13. Houston
14. Whoever’s worst than Houston

Today is a great day.

This may all change Thursday mind you (New England is tough) but until then you’re going to have to deal with me losing my mind to deliriousness. I’ll have a match report and player rankings up soon (beautiful women for everybody!!!) but there is a smile on my face because we rest comfortably tonight, because tonight in Dallas the FC stands for “first class.”

HOOPS PRIDE!!!
