Almost exactly three years ago, an excited Galaxy team ran onto the field in Texas to celebrate a victory over FC Dallas. The manner in which the team celebrated could have easily lead one to believe they had just won a hard fought championship after many years of shortcomings, or the like. However, it was merely a mid-season regular season victory. Why all the commotion over a regular season victory? Prior to that game,......

It was a night of familiar storylines at last night's Galaxy game. Weather -- warm, but nice L.A. summer night. Attendance -- 4th sellout of the year. Galaxy offense -- flowing and scoring. Galaxy defense -- erratic. MLS officiating - subpar. The Galaxy jumped out to an early lead when forward Landon Donovan pounced on a loose ball in front of the Columbus Crew goal after Crew goalie William Hesmer bobbled a cross from......

It was a beautiful night for soccer in Carson last night. The Galaxy and Chivas USA put on a highly entertaining display of soccer that did not disappoint the sell out crowd at The Home Depot Center. The supporters groups and other fans joined in the festivities, rarely allowing a moment to tick by without their presence being heard, making for an electric atmosphere. The first meeting of the year for the clubs began......

Just two minutes into Saturday's match against the Houston Dynamo, it seemed as though the Galaxy were destined to repeat some of the mistakes from last Sunday or completely dismantle the Dynamo. The Galaxy pieced together a beautiful sequence of one touch passes when the ball found its way to David Beckham on the right flank of the blue-and-gold attack. Beckham quickly found Alan Gordon who then touched it to Edson Buddle. Buddle then......

Photo by Brad Westphal for Shanghaiist. The Los Angeles Galaxy wrapped a 3-0 win in Shanghai on Wednesday night (yup -- big time difference, folks!) thanks to a hat trick by Carlos Ruiz. Shanghaiist, our sister site, has been covering Beckhamania and has great analysis of the match against Shanghai East Asia Hong Kong United (it's unclear at this time if that fits on a jersey). In fact, they've got a lot more insight than,......

Chivas 3, Real Salt Lake 2 - By taking advantage of last-place Salt Lake on Saturday, Chivas USA also took sole possession of first place in the West. Who's the best team in LA? Hmmmm. Galaxy 2, Dynamo 1 - Los Angeles' other team responded in the playoff chase by picking up a victory on Sunday. The Galacticos continue to cause sellouts on the road, with over 30,000 attending in Houston. David Beckham remained on......

Angels 7, Mariners 4 - The champagne Bud Light is no longer on ice. After dropping two in a row to Seattle and delaying their inevitable AL West pennant, LAnaheim closed it out on Sunday. This is the earliest the Angels have ever clinched. They will join Cleveland (AL Central), Boston (at least the AL Wild Card) and one other team in the chase to represent the junior league in the World Series. Dodgers 7,......

Angels 2, Devil Rays 1 - LAnaheim picked up a second straight 2-1 victory thanks to another solid outing from their rotation. Ervin Santana had 10Ks, and the Halos swept Tampa Bay to inch just a little bit closer to their third pennant in four years. Sitting at 90 wins, their magic number is down to three. Life isn't so sweet for the Devil Rays, who dressed their rookies in Hooters attire. Welcome to the......

Cubs 8, Dodgers 2 - There goes that winning streak. The Blew Crew committed three errors, but only allowed one unearned run. That left an average of one earned for each of the seven pitchers used by Los Angeles. Juan Pierre was responsible for one of the errors, but also picked up his 55th stolen base of the year. A's 6, Angels 2 - Garret Anderson has been en fuego. He extended his RBI streak......

Chivas USA 3, Galaxy 0 - It looks like the British are in a fighting mood. After being tackled hard from behind, Beckham yelled at Jesse Marsch, his attacker (err, actually defender ... no, make that midfielder). That turned into a shoving match between the teams, which grew into a full on scrap involving at least one solid punch and a nasty headbutt. Mr. Prettyboy Beckham wasn't involved in any of the physical altercations, though......

Beckham had his first start with the Galaxy on Wednesday night. He also had his first yellow card, first assist, and first GOOOOOOOOAAAAALLLLLLLLLLL! Unfortunately, this announcer was a little lame. But at least you get to see Beckham bend it on a free kick. Becks played 63 minutes and wore the captain's armband until he sat and turned it over to former captain Landon Donovan. Yeah, that wasn't awkward. The Galaxy won this SuperLiga......

Galaxy 2, Pachua 1 - The Galaxy was without its biggest star (Beckham wasn't on the bench, much less the field), but 19,317 people still showed up to watch the struggling squad knock off one of Mexico's best club teams. Landon Donovan scored go-ahead goal in the 81st minute. Next up, the Galaxy will host Chivas -- the real Chivas of Guadalajara -- in more SuperLiga action on Saturday. Astros 7, Dodgers 4 - When......

Padres 3, Dodgers 2 - Jeff Kent drove home a run in the first and the third, helping Los Angeles jump out to a 2-0 lead against San Diego's Greg Maddux. Then Maddux started to pitch more like, well, Maddux. He retired the final 14 batters he faced and went home with the W against his old team (you may remember he wore blue, albeit briefly). Angels 3, White Sox 0 - Gary Matthews Jr.'s......

The Los Angeles Galaxy pulled off a coup last week by acquiring Landon Donovan from Bayer Leverkusen in Germany. This is a superstar signing of epic proportions. Donovan coming to the Galaxy is akin to the Lakers signing Shaq or the Angels signing Vlad Guerrero. Donovan might the best American soccer player, having led Team USA to the quarterfinals of the 2002 World Cup, and single-handedly led the San Jose Earthquakes to two MLS......
