Landon Donovan is retiring after the 2014 season.

Leading goal scorer in MLS and USA national team history.

Never seen Bruce Arena like this. Incredible to see.

Donovan will be missed in the league. He will retire being the most important player this league has ever had.

Can Philadelphia get back into the playoff picture tonight with a win against Montreal?

Is no one in Dallas watching MLS soccer?

They seem to have a great team this season. Playing well tonight against Colorado.

Haven't been on top of the Union as much as years past, but it was a nice gritty win last night at home. Le Toux never seizes to amaze me. One of my favorite athletes just due to how much effort he gives every minute on the pitch.

I may be moving next door to the Houston Dynamo.

Like, literally next door. I'm checking out one of the lofts that are right next to BBVA Stadium.

Seattle vs Salt Lake tomorrow afternoon will be a great game. Keep an eye for it, people :)

Gotta say I'm very nervous about it.

Great win for RSL. Plata has been such a big player for us, littlest player on the field with a header goal, awesome... I really look forward to when we get Sabo back, Olmes Garcia and Robbie Findley has not looked good, if we didn't have Plata we would be screwed.

A picture of my family in our Red Bulls gear on twitter won tickets to meet the team tomorrow in SoHo and tickets to a game in September! We have been loving this mls season. I am finding all I want to do is watch soccer now. I haven't been a fan of something like this in a while.

Hopefully you are getting about Champions League too.

NYRB has a good shot at moving on. I believe their first game is next week.

What is champions league? I heard the announcers say something about it. Is it the same one from Europe? Or is it a different one for America?

It's the same format but just for CONCACAF teams in the Americas.

The winner moves onto the Club World Cup and plays teams from all over the world.

Thanks!

I will definitely be watching. I have been looking for random mls games to watch, so definitely down to see some more Red Bulls. This two-week layoff between games is killing me. But at least the premier league started, so I've started watching Arsenal games.

They'll make up for the break with 3 games a week coming up between MLS & Champions League.

The schedule is about to get very busy for teams in both.
