Martino's happy

Andrea talked to Kyle Martino out at Galaxy training today as we tag-teamed a trade reaction story.

Martino, for one, is happy with landing Edson Buddle. There are some parallels to both players' careers - success with Columbus, a falling-off of sorts. Martino has found success in L.A. as he is entrenched in the starting lineup. He expects Buddle to do well with the Galaxy.

Any truth to the reports from Duncan Oughton on CD 101 here in Columbus, that Martino can be found "wrestling cougars in at the watering holes in LA"? He's also accused KM of panhandling at the beach while playing his guitar. Is this covered by the MLS Salary Cap?

Is that what he said? That's classic.

What was his tone like? Joking? Sarcastic? Angry?

I'll have to ask Martino about that, especially considering the Crew is playing here next Saturday.

Well for whatever reason KM seems to have a fan base at CD101 based off his hippie background. Seems Oughton was asked to supply some "lurid stories" but instead decided to stick to the PG version. But yeah, they were posed in jest as Oughton seems to still stay in contact with KM. No malice intended in other words. Crew fans in general don't have the same love considering Kyle's penchant for regular digs at the club.
