After wrapping up yet another postseason-less campaign, the chatter surrounding D.C. United returns to an all-too-familiar topic: whether or not the team will actually remain in Washington for the long-term. more ›

In fairness, the frantic final minutes of the last meaningful match D.C. United will play in 2011 was a microcosm of the season as a whole: promising and full of chances, but inevitably disappointing. more ›

Maybe it's just destiny. Maybe this D.C. United squad just isn't meant to be playing into the postseason. While I hate to be pessimistic about the squad's chances to break a years-long playoff drought this year, it's hard not to think such things after what happened in the waning moments of Saturday night's match. more ›

Is there any stopping Dwayne De Rosario? Not if you're Real Salt Lake. more ›

Has there ever been a crazier D.C. United match than the one that took place at RFK Stadium on Saturday night? Possibly -- but if there had been, the memory of it has likely been replaced for the 11,684 who were on hand to witness the home side earn a 3-3 draw with Toronto FC. more ›

FC Barcelona plays the best football on the face of the planet. And given their deep focus on the beautiful game, we can forgive Xavi and company from not keeping up with the recent spats involving the Park Police in the District. The Park Police, of course, was happy to bring them up to speed. more ›

Sure, Tommy Wells (D-Ward 6) was recently demoted from his beloved perch as chair of the D.C. Council's transportation committee. But he was given the parting gift of control over the District's Office of Planning. And it appears as if one of the first things Wells is focusing his planning efforts on might be a new stadium for D.C. United. more ›

United battled back to save a home point against defending league champions Colorado in front of 12,499 at RFK Stadium on Saturday night. more ›

It'd be easy to write off D.C. United's scoreless home draw with FC Dallas on Saturday night as a disappointment -- after all, the team certainly could have used the three points, especially when it seemed the only thing standing in their way was the hands of Dallas goalkeeper Kevin Hartman. But the defensive effort provided by the team -- especially on the heels of an April in which they allowed four goals three times and three goals once -- was impressive enough for head coach Ben Olsen and most of the 11,504 on hand at RFK Stadium. more ›
