And we're back

Sorry about the layoff in posts these lat few days, I was rather busy and didn't really have a chance to get out any new updates. So without further delay lets jump right into a short round up (It would be longer but I'm still rather busy)

MLS
The MLS players union released the salaries of all the players around the league while I was gone and this is definitely worth taking a look at. As always in MLS there are some kids who are playing just for the love of the game, and not for their shameful 12k a year salary. I can't wait for the day when MLS can offer a living wage to their rookies and reserves. In the mean time however it's either 12k or no k so take your pick I suppose. The Link

In that same vein here's a fantastic story from MLS-Daily breaking down the biggest upgrades in salary across MLS. This is worth a read for any fan of the American game. The Link

Salt Lake City
DC was thumped the other night by RSL in the Carolina Challenge Cup. There's a great play-by-play style break down for those interested over on the RSL team blog. The Link

LA
Here's a Quick overview of the Beckham deal by Steven Goff. If you ask me it sounds like MLS and namely the Galaxy are getting screwed here for the most part. Though the fact that LA does get a small "transfer fee" for the time he spends hanging out in Italy avoiding he actual contract. The Link

Columbus
Also while we were gone The Crew downed their second set of reserves, beating Liverpool's second string 2-0. The Link
