Greetings from the blogosphereThe best soccer sites -- and the 'Quakes keep rollingPosted: Tuesday September 20, 2005 3:14PM; Updated: Tuesday September 20, 2005 4:15PM
Click here to go straight to the rankings. We asked and you delivered. Our search for the top blogs about U.S. soccer brought a number of submissions, which we've narrowed to a starting XI. One disclaimer: We're not vouching for all the information contained on the following blogs, but we think most are at least an entertaining read. Enjoy. Du Nord Climbing the Ladder We Call It Soccer Hexagonal Blog Off the Ball U.S. Soccer Players Daily Blog In Limbo The Kin of Fish Ramblings of a Soccer Junky The Global Game Maradawga There are also some good sites devoted to particular MLS teams, the best of which are 3rd Degree (3rddegree.net) for FC Dallas, Real Salt Lake Blog (realsaltlake.blogspot.com) and The DCenters (dcunitedblog.blogspot.com) for D.C. United. Before we get to this week's Power Rankings, two quick notes: If you get a chance, check out the U.S.-Italy game at the Under-17 World Championships on Tuesday afternoon (Fox Soccer Channel, 4:30 p.m. ET). MLS officials have contacted members of the media to clarify that commissioner Don Garber makes an annual salary of $1.25 million, not the $250,000 that was reported in a New York magazine article this week. (That's great for the commish, but it's hard not to laugh when MLS HQ starts contacting the media with salary information after we spent years trying to crack the single-entity salary list in New York.)
