DID YOU KNOW? The Philadelphia Union kicks off its season tonight

POSTED: Thursday, March 25, 2010, 11:08 PM

See what I did there? Chester Philadelphia's entry in Major League Soccer, The Union, kick's off the league's  schedule tonight in Seattle against Sounders FC and will be broadcast on ESPN2, ESPN Deportes and ESPN360.com at 9:30 p.m. ET.

Are you watching? Are you pumped? Did you know that the players' union almost went on strike last week? (And did you know that the MLS Players Union head is named Bob Foose, which reminds us of foosball, which amuses us to no end?)

I know what you're thinking, but just because Isaiah Thompson wrote a cover story questioning the financing of the team's fancy new Chester stadium (PPL Park!) doesn't mean we can't get excited by The Beautiful Game. Home opener's on April 10 against DC United at Lincoln Financial Field. Are you going? Anyone know of bars having soccer specials?
