The Columbus Crew are MLS Cup Champions. GBS put in a masterful performance, Chad Marshall continued his aerial dominance, and Frankie Hejduk capped off the game with a goal and his first MLS Cup during his long tenure in the league. No complaints should be heard from soccer purists, as the team with the best record in the regular season went on to win the cup.
That's not all that happened this weekend, as Commish Don Garber delivered his State of the League address and the draws for the Hexagonal and the Confederations cup took place. To get the full recap of all the news, check out this post over at DuNord.
I'll be back later with some more soccer and a little music, as some big releases are coming out today.

MLS Cup Preview
Here is the MLS Cup preview courtesy of ESPN. The winner of the Supporter's Shield, Columbus Crew, taking on the resilient, and surprising New York Red Bulls. Who do you have taking home the cup? I am going to go with a 2-1 victory for the Columbus Crew, behind goals for Alejandro Moreno and GBS, with Juan Pablo Angel pulling one back for the underdogs. Think differently? Let's hear your predictions in the comments section.
Getting Fired Up Courtesy of Bergkamp
MLS Cup is today. Two teams without a championship, and one will not have to wait much longer. I leave you with a video to get you hyped for the beautiful game on national TV today (3:30 pm ET, ABC). I know it is not MLS related, but every time my old roommate wanted to get our house ready for what we were doing, whether it was a game, or a night out at a fine drinking establishment; he would blast this video, whether we liked it or not. Hats off to Bergkamp, he never gets the respect he deserves; and good luck to New York and Columbus, let's hope they give us a classic final.
