Orlando likely landing both Kaka and Robinho as well... Depending on the supporting casts, I could see both expansion teams making the playoffs.

Reports are 3 years, $24 million... meaning that if that does not include the transfer fee, he is making $8 million a year, almost three times as much as the entire Fire roster combined.

45 times more than our DP (175,000).

Official announcement Monday
When is our announcement about signing that so-called "Keane-money" players that Dollar Menu said he would do?

I'm sure we will have an announcement, but it won't be a "Keane-money" player, more like Puppo, MacDonald or Anangono.

So Lampard and Villa... and then someone else (possibly Xavi), damn...

Almost wish we were a MLS 2.0 or 3.0 expansion team...

I wish that Dollar Menu would sell the team and get an owner that cares about the team.

NYCFC's social media presence went up big time today, at least 20K or 30K new twitter followers (up to 5th, nearly 4th in MLS now) and Facebook likes basically doubled
