You know the new season is underway when the New York Red Bulls have their Media Day. Just over 48 hours before the first team kicks off the first leg of its first-ever CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal, RBNY opened its doors to the press pack.
After the traditional chit-chat with faces fresh and familiar, reporters settled in to wait for RBNY head coach Jesse Marsch to take his seat.
Notice that empty seat next to Marsch? That would usually be Ali Curtis next to him at Media Day, but sadly Curtis is now the former sporting director of RBNY.
