Sebastian Guenzatti sets Rowdies’ all-time goals record in win over Loudoun United (Tampa Bay Times): Younger kid and mom are sick so I couldn’t really watch too much of this, other than to say one team is trying to play for something and the other had not a lot to play for.
Gaat Frutos nieuwe uitdaging aan in JPL? ‘Argentijn keert terug naar België’ (Voetbal Primeur): Not too surpising, but it sounds like Nicolas Frutos is going back to Belgium this week.
Dave Johnson to Call His Last DC United Game After 27 Years (NBCW): Nice video here for the hardest-working man in DC sports.
Santiago Sosa suspended 3 matches by MLS for using homophobic slur during a match (Outsports): Unsure what this means for Taxi other than maybe a time-served type of deal, other than this happened after and was resolved before that.
