Donovan Ricketts Wants Your Vote! (For The All-Star Team)

By: NathanHJ | July 1st, 2009

Donovan Ricketts has been making huge stops all year long – All-Star caliber stops. But just being good doesn’t mean you are going to get what you deserve. Sometime you have to pimp yourself a little. Press the flesh. Get the word out. Bribe people with food. Ricketts shows how to make it happen on the field and off.

  Ricketts is playing in a Gold Cup game on Friday at the HDC. Is there a rule that prevents him from playing in the Galaxy game the next day? Mlsnet is saying that Saunders will be the goalie, which pisses me off, since Donovan would be more than able to play.

  What, no post about yesterday’s game? Well, I’m watching bits of it now. Ricketts in Gold Cup, Donovan sick, Gordon injured. So Eskandarian replaced Gordon as the starting striker. Good thing too, he scored in the 7th minute to win the game. Saunders started in goal and had a couple of great saves. NE was not at their best, but the Gals acquited themselves well and deserved the win. I’d be interested in hearing more from anyone who was there. And was the fireworks show great as usual?

  good game for the Galaxy and a much needed 3 points, nice goal from Eskandarian to start of his 1st game with the team.

  “What, no post about yesterday’s game?” said David.

  I was wondering about that. too. Someone is sleeping on the job?
  It was a great game. I was sitting behind the south endline and from what I saw, Saunders should have been man of the match. It was very satisfying to see the Galaxy play that well without the superstars. Eskandarian is a nice addition. Nothing like going out there and proving yourself in your first game with your new team!
  Yes, Justin, the fireworks were good as usual.

  I’m sure Nathan is in the same boat as me — lots of family obligations and family time over the Fourth, so no posts about the game just yet. We’ll have Laurie and Daryl dock our pay. Oh wait, I forgot this was a free gig.

  But agreed, it was a nice win, and I hope Eskandarian can keep it up!
