Count 'em



Yes, I know soccer is a team game and that final results are what really matter, but I grew up with fans in baseball stands posting K signs for strikeouts or in other ways keeping track of certain important stats in the stands. So I got a kick out of some Galaxy fans setting up a "Goal Counter" for Landon Donovan and Edson Buddle. I took the pic in the first half, but by the end, obviously, the counter was up to 11 and 9, respectively. What's also interesting about LD and Edson topping the MLS goal table is how many games less they've played than other contenders.

I think Emilio finishes the season on a higher number than both.

To the first anonymous:

As Luis gets a kick out of all things Chivas; Goff, out of all things DC United; Ives, out of all things New York Red Bulls.

What's your point?

Forget other players... Landon is ahead of *entire teams*.

The Wizards & Quakes have both only scored 10 goals this season... KC in 12 games, San Jose in 13.
