Kenny Cooper is staying in Dallas and I am quite happy about it. But is Kenny happy about it? That my people is the $4 million question. And if not do unrequited European transfer desires make him this years TT? I don't claim to know, but feel free to discuss how The Keeping of Cooper™ may affect the rest of 2008 for FC Dallas and MLS.

What I hope to hear soon is an announcement that FCD sign Frankencooper to a new contract extension at a significantly raised salary. The guy is making $83K base and approx $100K overall.
I think that would set up a win-win for club, player and the league with the following scenario:
1. Cooper finishes out this season, continues to play out of his mind, and the Schellas Hyndman Youth Movement Experience actually goes somewhere (not a requirement).
2. European clubs needing a scorer are even more hot for Cooper during the winter transfer period.
3. Copper gets sold for even more cash.
4. FCD, Cooper and MLS all smell like roses and generate more fan pride, more league respect, and more money for all considered.
I don't care as long as Bob bradley gives him a good look for the national team.
