First Kick coverage

Washington, D.C.

It's finally here. The 2011 Major League Soccer season is upon us, and after all the roster changes, preseason build-up, and lineup predictions, the Black-and-Red will officially begin the new campaign at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday night inside RFK Stadium. As usual, our local media coverage has been insightful and engaging, with Comcast SportsNet's Dave Johnson weighing in on United's prospects for 2011.�

The Examiner's Craig Stouffer takes a look at how all of the new faces in United camp will impact on-field chemistry, and he provides a thorough training report from today's morning session at RFK.�

Paul Tenorio from the Washington Post caught up with captain Dax McCarty and forward Charlie Davies this morning, while Steve Goff takes a look as the emergence of young centerback Perry Kitchen.�

The Washington Times discusses United's new era under Head Coach Ben Olsen, as John Haydon explains that competition is key to reconstructing the Black-and-Red.�

On a lighter note, midfielder Santino Quaranta recently showed FOX 5's Paul Raphel what it takes to train like a professional. Chris Pontius stopped by the set of FOX 5 Morning News today (view clip above), and Dax McCarty chatted with Ivan Carter on Washington Post Live on Wednesday.�

Travis Clark gives us a preview of Saturday's match with Columbus for MLSsoccer.com, and all the way across the nation D.C. gets some love for being the second best soccer market in the country.�
