Podcast prima donna

Dave Denholm invited me to take part in his ESPN soccer podcast this Monday. Dave's a great one with opinions, and heck, I've got my own perspective on things as well, so it should be fun.

I have to admit - it was a pretty short segment. We didn't cover Chivas at all, but I think it went ok. Dave thinks the Galaxy are awful right now.

I'm not going to disagree, but I do think it's interesting that people seem to overlook certain things. For example, Houston, who is winning our SuperLiga poll handily, has scored less goals than the Galaxy have in this competition versus Mexican league teams. It can also be argued that the Galaxy faced better teams, and in definitely a far harsher atmosphere than the Dynamo have had in the friendly confines of Robertson stadium. That's without counting that the injuries on the Galaxy side are also greater. To some, all those circumstances count only as excuses, but it's a different way to look at the situation, as well.
