If you haven’t heard Cal’s call after Eddie Johnson blasted the final PK over the bar to cement Sporting KC as US Open Cup champs then you are missing out. This is the oldest and most important soccer tournament in North America started in 1914 and gives an automatic berth to the CONCACAF Champions League which is the highest profile league an MLS team could achieve in North America. The only step bigger is to make the world cup team and play for your country. Follow this link and listen to the call, it is one of the best I’ve ever heard. Cheers!

Sporting KC = U.S. Open Cup Champions
Congratulations to Sporting KC for bringing the Lamar Hunt trophy back to Kansas City! Hopefully the Chiefs can do the same later this year by winning the AFC Championship!
I was without power at my home from 7:15 pm to 4:30 am so I missed the entire game but from all accounts it was a dandy that had to be decided by PK’s.
The Price Is Wrong Drew
Drew Carey, who hits on little old ladies and is an owner of the the Seattle Sounders tweeted out today “Going to – Kansas City! Kansas City here I come! They got some crazy little trophies there and I’m gonna get me one!
