We're at DFW airport, waiting to take a flight to Miami and then to Trinidad. Half of the guys met up at the stadium this morning, taking the bus at 8:45 am...the rest of the players met up at the airport.
Here's the traveling party:
Goalkeepers: Ray Burse, Dan Kennedy (Guest Player).
Defenders: Drew Moor, Alex Yi, Michael Dello-Russo, Andrew Daniels, David Wagenfuhr, Bobby Rhine, Blake Wagner, Martin Pautasso (Guest Player).
Midfielders: Denilson, Juan Toja, Scott Jones, Chase Wileman, Marcelo Saragosa, Aaron Pitchkolan, Jamie Watson (Guest Player),
Forwards: Kenny Cooper, Ricardinho, Dominic Oduro, Abe Thompson.
Marcelo will be arriving straight from Brazil, expecting to get in around 3 pm today. Dan Kennedy, who was a Supplemental Draft pick by Chivas USA in 2005 and has been playing in Chile this year will meet us in Miami. Marin Pautasso, a 28-year old Argentine defender who earlier this year was at AEK Athens, will join us in Trinidad on Thursday. The final guest player is Jamie Watson, a Dallas-native who is plays for Real Salt Lake. We had intentions of bringing Kenny Bertz with us, but since he's signed to a USL contract, they had to release him to play with us - which didn't happen.
Keep checking the blog, as we'll try to 'bring' you with us to Trinidad with these posting. We've also been told by our friends in Trinidad that later today we'll know if they can set the stadium up to be able to webstream the games, either through our site or theirs.
Did you know that the games will be played at Hasely Crawford Stadium in Port of Spain, Trinidad - which was the site of the historic Paul Caliguiri goal in Nov. 1989 which gave the U.S. a 1-0 win over Trinidad, and clinched the U.S. its first World Cup in nearly 40 years...here's more...

-3nOut
Oooh, webstreaming would be COOL!!!
At the very least, I am eagerly looking forward to any and all info, photos, & videos you all can posts . . .
I don't know if any other teams have a Blog, but you are the BEST.
(Hoping that all of the begging and compliments will encourage the staff to stay off the beach to post more for us poor fans.)
:)
we need HELP!
Is it me or did it look like some shooting practice is in order.
Yeah.. Lookin a bit rusty there.
I think all three guests are actually trialists. The defender got cut from his Greek team, Watson cut from RSL and Kennedy was playing at a Div 2 team in Chile. I suspect all would love for FCD to pick them up. Hope at least one of them works out..
please, please, PLEASE stream the T&T game! gad-zooks, it's the off-season -- have mercy on us fans lol!
glad to hear you landed safely & ricki found his iPhone (way to go there, blake lol!)
i hope you guys have a BLAST & get a chance to kick-back after the games for some great food & vistas.
we'll keep visiting the blog to see if things pan-out on the webstream (fingers crossed)
