Adding to Your Reading List

Here are four stories you need to read. Some of them were posted before we clinched a playoff berth, so give the authors some slack for that.

1. MLSnet.com piece from our friend Bob Rusert on Kerry Zavagnin and his fond regular-season farewell last weekend. Some very good, insightful quotes here from KZ and company.

2. Soccer365 piece on Claudio Lopez and his first season in MLS. Good work Mr. Greg Seltzer.

3. Goal.com piece on our late-season playoff run and the additions of Herculez and Abe by Vermes and Onalfo. This one was posted today but obviously turned in before New York's loss last night.

4. Article on Autism Speaks website from an event Jimmy Conrad was at a couple of weeks ago. Also check out the YouTube below.
