Embarrassment of Riches? The Red Bulls traded for goalie Nick Rimando, despite speculation that he would be on his way back to D.C. United. Rimando went to Real Salt Lake in the Freddy Adu deal, but there seemed to be little place for him there, after RSL drafted U of Md. star Chris Seitz. Rimando had not signed a contract with RSL, and it was speculated that he was headed back to D.C., after Jay Nolly left D.C. United in the lurch, while he shops for a job in Europe. Of course, the Red Bulls already have last year's starter Jon Conway, and recently signed a backup from the Dutch national team, Ronald Wattereus. That leaves the Red Bulls with one goalie too many, and United still in need of a back-up. Stay tuned...
