Midseason Report Card: Top of the Class

As the team takes a well deserved break, it is a good time to analyze how the players have done after 10 games.

Robbie Findley: C 1 Goal from the number 1 draft pick was good enough to get him on the World Cup team, but is it good enough to keep him a starter for the Cure?
Edson Buddle: A+ The Cure's leading scorer has done everything that has been asked of him. Currently the front runner for the Bronze Boot.
Chad Barret: A- Free agent signee has delivered 4 goals in 4 starts.
Patrick Nyarko: A- Has started 9 of 10 games and is the Cure's leader in assists.
Fabian Espindola: B Supplied a few key goals, but his consistency is not what it should be.
Luis Angel Landin: B When he plays, he delivers. But he appears to be too injury prone.
Emilio Renteria: No grade--no starts.
Javier Morales: B Morales has played well, but he needs to deliver more points.
Dane Richards: C+ Acquired in a trade for Fred, Richards has added depth, but not points.
Robbie Rogers: C- 1 Goal and 0 assists is troubling numbers.
Bobby Convey: B+ Second in assists, but he needs to stop getting stupid yellow cards.
Roger Torres: B- Started out hot, but has lost his Union starting spot.
Brek Shea: B 2 goals in game 10 shows his potential.
Jimmy Nielsen: B 3 clean sheets for the horrid Wizards is pretty impressive.
Coach: A Lodes has hardly made a bad move (aside from the foolish Twellman draft choice). It may be just good luck; we will see during the second half of the season.
Team: A Each week, a new player seems to step up. Teamwork has made them number one.

  1. I hate you. (laughs) but seriously you deserve the "A" grade. I am sure that if you had played last season you probably would have won a trophy or at least been a winning team.
