I just finished reading the USL year end honors. With due respect for Charleston and Richmond, I think the 'Hounds have some players who deserve a mention. And when it comes to Coach of the Year(pardon me if I sound a little bias) but I think Justin Evans deserves the honor.
Charleston and Richmond have been at the top for a while, but the 'Hounds are returning to post-season. Don't make this a two-team race when it's actually 3! The 'Hounds deserve some recognition too!

Clearly they don't or they would have gotten the nod. How far a distant 3rd did the fleabags finish in comparison to the top 2 ?

While I understand where you are coming from, the honors handed out today were earned by the players. If Pittsburg had a player that had scored more goals than Neagle he would have won the Goal Scoring Champion. If your goalie had a better gaa than Pascale, he would have won. Same thing goes for the assist champion and the overall Scoring Champion. In other words, these awards were based strictly on statistics.

There's still plenty of honors left for your fleabags to win or at the very least be nominated for. My guess is that you will see them get some recognition then.

It just seems that only Richmond and Charleston get reconized as far as the USLD2. I think it's time a new team comes to light.
With due respect to the Kickers and Battery, the 'Hounds are riding momentum and I hope they take it all the way, it's our time to get the title! There should be an award for the most improved team, and if there is not, I'll really smell something suspicious(by the way, they are not the flea bags, they are the RIVERHOUNDS-Get used to it!)!

There has never been an award like that before. Why should they create one this year just because the fleabags suddenly had a better team than they have in the past? Nothing suspicious there at all.

They'll ALWAYS be the Fleabags, just like we are commonly called the Knickers and Charleston the Bunnies, etc. Get used to it! wink

They ARE the Fleabags, just as there are the **itty Islanders, Butterflies, Knickers, Bladdery, and Evils.. maybe YOU should adjust... I know I know I suggest the impossible sometimes.

Well, if the 'Hounds maintain their unbeaten momentum, the Knickers will have to enjoy their last game on Sat.

And if the Kickers maintain their unbeaten streak, then the Fleabags of (arm)Pittsburg will have to enjoy their last game on Sat.

(Both teams are riding 4-game unbeaten streaks. We haven't lost since losing to the Fleabags up there; you haven't lost since losing to the Kickers down here)
