And those words are: Not the time to tinker.

No More Spankings, OR: Galaxy vs. Toronto Non-Preview

By: jen | Comments 3 Comments

Or at least that’s the consensus after the Galaxy’s whooping by Dallas last week, losing 6-3.
Most of the analysis of last week’s game concludes that the loss is a wake up call to the Galaxy, who may have been getting too comfortable with their winning record.

By: NathanHJ | Comments 10 Comments

There are numerous recaps of the game to be found on the interwebs so I’m not going to attempt to compete with them. Steve Davis is here, Grahame Jones is here, Goal.com is here…
