Sports fans love to debate winners and losers of major trades. In the case of the blockbuster deal that sent Kei Kamara from Crew SC to the New England Revolution three months ago, the answer to who won might be nobody.
Not the Crew, which has won once in his absence. Not the Revolution, riding a three-game losing streak and hemorrhaging goals. Not Kamara, who hasn’t had nearly the impact on the scoresheet that he did a season ago in leading the Crew to the MLS Cup Final.
“This is the definition of a lose-lose,” said Fox Soccer analyst and former national team standout Eric Wynalda.
