About

Junior at the University of Connecticut, majoring in Journalism. Sports are everything to me and I want to make a life out of that.

I am the sports editor of The Daily Campus, UConn's student newspaper, where after two years of covering golf, volleyball, men's hockey and softball, I will be covering football and men's basketball during the 2013-14 school year.

    Most likely, from what I've seen he's got the quality to be the #1.

    But like I said, Ford will get some time in. Hopefully enough to develop him.

  • Matthew Buening posted 461 days ago

    Matthew Buening

    Well, i'm hoping to see more of him. My guess is he'll get some time during the Open Cup.

    But if Gsupring is a flop (which he cost alot of money, so he better not be) then he would start.

  • Matthew Buening posted 462 days ago

    Matthew Buening

    Oh, damn. Nevermind, for some reason I got the two mixed up. Sorry about that. Ford still plays for the Sounders.

    Hey Tim.

    I assume that you have heard about Terry Boss's unfortunate medical problems earlier this year...I was hoping to see him get more action with the Sounders. I'm still hoping he can get a job coaching, or be on the technical staff. Just wondering if you knew anything, because I think I recall you claim to have known him.

    Hey Tim. Wanted to know what you thought of this:

    http://www.goal.com/en/news/11/transfer-zone/2012/01/12/2843387/paris-saint-germain-agree-35-million-deal-for-ac-milans

    Even if they bring in Tevez, this seems like a TERRIBLE move by Milan to me. Thoughts? Feel free to email me if you prefer.
