Here’s something I wouldn’t have said last week: Things are looking up for the Fire.
Since I last left you, the Chicago Fire had only 18 players on their roster, traded away all their draft picks, and generally had an air of bleakness and despair surrounding them. What a difference a week makes.
After last year, I never thought there would be any positive feeling I could feel about the club. But this past week, hope has started to fill my heart. The Fire have signed six players in the last week. Five of them are new signings, two of them Homegrowns.
