KC Wizards Coach Sacked
by jeremy on Aug.04, 2009, under Soccer
After a wonderful night in Frisco for FC Dallas or a horrible night for KC Wizards (the Harry Potters)…
The Kansas City Wizards announced Monday that the team has dismissed Head Coach Curt Onalfo. The Wizards will announce an Interim Head Coach Tuesday at the team’s Swope Park Training Center after the players have been addressed following an off-day Monday.
"Our shareholder group is thankful for Curt Onalfo’s service over the last two-and-a-half seasons, but we felt a change needed to be made," OnGoal CEO and Wizards President Robb Heineman said. "We are committed to developing high-performance and consistency around our club."
Onalfo finished with a 27-29-22 record in MLS play since taking over prior to the 2007 season. Assistant Coach Kris Kelderman has also been dismissed.
Now, all we have to do its work on getting Schellas Hyndman out as well, then all will be right in the world.
EPL’s worse Jersey yet

Everton Football Club has revealed its new look 2009/10 away kit.
All black, it is decorated with pink lightning horizontal stripes to create true standout on the pitch – and has the theme of ‘Flash of Brilliance’.
Robert Elstone, Everton’s CEO commenting on the new range said, "We wanted to make a real statement with our playing strips this season. It was our intention to reference the Club’s past along with ensuring the designs had a contemporary modern feel.
“We have received many favorable comments on the style of the home strip and we are hoping for more of the same with our away kit. (REALLY??!!). We wanted a much bolder design than previous seasons and our partners have been able to achieve this by integrating the pink into the black shirt design. “Whilst we know it is a move away from our more traditional away kits of recent years, we are expecting this one to be even more popular amongst supporters.”
I don’t have anything further to say about this away kit, hope they don’t lose to many game, otherwise the pink might start to be a joke, oh wait it already is. Maybe they are just trying out the idea for a women’s league there soon. I know, this is a node back to the 80’s with the neon yellow, pink and all those cool awesome assorted bright colors. Fur Sure Dude!!
Here is another theory, they are just trying to distract you from the ugly home jerseys they are using now.
I hope they were the away jersey for the MLS All-Star game tonight July 29, 2009 at 8 EST
