Under the Knife

The big DC United news is that Alecko Eskandarian is undergoing hernia surgery, but should be available for the opener against Red Bull New York. If you enjoy reading texts much too closely, one can see that Steve Goff has a forward depth chart, which is:

1. Jamie Moreno
2. Lucio Filomeno
3. Freddy Adu
4. Santino Quaranta
5. Jamil Walker

Of course, he could have just been ticking off the forwards in his head as he knew them, but doesn't there seem to be just a bit of implied ranking in there? Although it also ignores Adu's recent starts at Left Mid.
