The Locals

Salt Lake reporters are the very rare breed of beat writers who travel to cover their MLS team. It's a great chance to ask some of the local guys for a team what's really going on with an organization.

After Real fell behind by three goals in the first half, I questioned The Deseret News' James Edward and The Salt Lake Tribune's Martin Renzhofer about whether RSL coach John Ellinger could possibly get fired this season.

Their clear consensus opinion was, "No."

"Utah's not like here," James tried to explain. "It's just not the way things are done. They'll wait until the end of the season, and then decide."
