New Generation Coach: Kreis Shows the Way
So, is that the end of the playoffs, then? Or do these conference finals also count as playoffs? I rather hope not, because I've had my fill of playoff soccer, thank you, and would like to see something a little more ... er, a little more, shall we say, refined?  


"The guy hit me where no man wants to get hit. It took me a little bit to go down. ... I couldn't even think to kick a ball at that point. There was nothing else I could have thought of at that moment."

-- The Los Angeles Galaxy's Mike Magee after being fouled by Chivas USA's Yamith Cuesta. The ensuing penalty kick was converted by Landon Donovan to send the Galaxy to the Western Conference final. (LASoccerNews)
