Big Pro Soccer Weekend

Pro soccer retruns to Philadelphia with a vengeance this weekend as both new teams play their home opener.

The men's Union, which opened in Seattle last weekend, will face DC United Saturday at 6 p.m. at the Linc, while the women's Independence opens the season Sunday at 6 p.m. at West Chester University against the Atlanta Beat featuring #1 WPS draft pick, Tobin Heath. Both should be good games and I'm hoping for good crowds.

Coach P plans to be at both games and looks forward to the return of pro soccer to the City. Has it really been seven years since the Charge last played at Villanova? And 30 years after the last Fury game at the Vet? Where have you gone, Jenny Benson?
