"We try to keep the players throughout the season fresh," Nowak said. "Even though some of the decisions of the lineup are questionable – not for us as a coaching staff, but for people who are looking from the outside in – we try to keep them fresh. We try to keep them healthy. We have enough resources and the medical staff can predict when the players are tired and need some time off, so we can shuffle the lineup a little bit so players will not get major injuries throughout the season." -peter novak

With the forecast for Saturday being what it is (rain, thunderstorms, cats, dogs, etc.) we're going to have to CANCEL the SoB tailgate for this game. It's unfortunate but it must be done. For those that purchased tickets for the tailgate, we'll be issuing reimbursements shortly.

There's a beast in the East, and it's not New York. The Philadelphia Union doesn't seem to care about all of the talk about the New York Red Bulls' vaunted attack and sound distribution from the back. It's looking down on its Eastern Conference rivals from atop the standings after a gritty win at an electric PPL Park.

- Philadelphia Union official Twitter account Faryd Mondragon and Marek Mintal? [UPDATE Justin F., 7:07 P.M.]: duckyninja points out in the comments that Tannenwald has reported that Colombian striker Jorge Perlaza is on his way with the Union in addition to Colombian defender Carlos Valdez. Are the two Colombians tomorrow's announcements?

In unrelated SuperDraft news, immigration papers are holding up the Union's announcement of Colombian Faryd Mondragon sources tell me.

- Kerith Gabriel on Twitter Hopefully this is just a minor problem that can be fixed, and not something that will completely squash the acquisition. Like Jonathan Tannenwald mentioned on Twitter last night, most teams carry three goalkeepers, while the Union only officially have one at the moment.
