Five winners, three losers from RSL’s 1-1 draw with RBNY

I had some sharp criticism of Rusnak last week (or I thought it was sharp — maybe it was less pointed than I thought), and when I saw him walk out with the armband, I was concerned. (OK, to be clear, this was pointed out to me, and I wish I remembered who did. If it was you, please don’t let me not give you credit.) To my eye, he hadn’t been captain material.

I don’t know that I was wrong about what I’d seen before — I don’t think so — but I do think that RSL coach Freddy Juarez saw something in him that I hadn’t.
