11:08 AM ET 04.29 | French superstar Thierry Henry was forced out if the Red Bulls' 1-0 win over New England with a hamstring injury, one that coach Hans Backe termed as a "disaster." The striker is expected to miss the next three to four weeks for a club already decimated by absences, both injuries and suspensions. "His injury is disastrous for us. His leadership in every single training session is invaluable. It's a huge loss for us, both on and off the pitch. It's going to be difficult now without him,'' Backe said afterwards. "No, it's a quite big hamstring, a huge one, so normally you say three or four weeks. I think he did quite a sprint to try and get in behind and then he stopped quick, and then he picked up the hamstring."

This place is deader than the Chicago Bulls' title chances.

Or Tello's stepover and run to the touch line move.

Logic fail. Tello's stepover-and-run to the touchline move was never born.

Haha it's so bad. And every defender now knows it coming.
