Re: 2013 MLS Thread
DC United trades Brandon McDonald to Salt Lake. Good deal for both teams. SL gets a back to help with their injuries and gives up a pick (and 2nd pick if he plays a set number of minutes). DC gets rid of the 4th highest paid player who is currently low on the depth chart (but keeps part of the salar...

Turned on the game just in time to see Johnson make the great save and Landon's pass to a streaking Shea for the game winner. Shea almost botched that 1 on goalie. Glad the keeper could not get a better touch on it.

So on Saturday they actually had boats sail against each other (NZ won by 5 minutes over the Italians)
Interestingly, the Italian boat sailed 1376 meters (0.74 nautical miles) further than the New Zealand boat over the length of the race, and most of this extra distance came on the upwind legs.
