Stevie Ballard – though the above post is a bit crass, he is absolutely right – our system makes it difficult to bring in a foreign player because so much is expected from those slots. If you were as good as you say, the competition was already stacked.

Dude from the UK you have to be kidding me….you are out o shape and a you would take up a foregn spot….you have very little chance of making a usl 1st div team let alone an mls team. you cant compare the mls players with that of the trialists…get a clue and find a new profession

Yeah, Laurie – I’m gonna repeat what Kenny mentioned above. “Thanks for trying your best to get us these tiny, tasty morsels of LA Galaxy transfers / trialists rumors. Is it just me – or is it getting harder and harder to get worthwhile, quality news out of the LA Galaxy Media Relations folks? What is this CIA/NSA modus operandii of keeping everything a “secret” with our Galaxy. I mean it’s soccer (sports) – not, cutting edge fission/fusion physics. Alright, I better calm myself down – before I lose control. Anyways, my point being… with the blog-sites that’s out there for soccer fans, at least we’re not totally in the abyss about our team.

You rock, Laurie!
