Anybody else heard these rumors? Would seem to make sense.

Can we make trades without an acting GM?
Not sure how I feel about two kids as backups. I'd be for selling or trading Meara and bringing back Gaudette as a backup, but not sold on throwing a 19 year old in after an injury.
Franco Panizo already dispelled the Cardona rumors. I don't see why we'd be eager to move Meara. If Robles goes down do we really trust Castano to hold down the fort? He's young and on a cap-friendly deal. No reason to move him unless another team really blows us away and/or they have the means to bring in another capable American to backup.
We carried four goalkeepers once before:

And it almost became necessary, because Conway got suspended.
Didn't we have four for a minute when we signed Rost too?

I'm just not sure there's any value out there we can get for Meara... The only thing we need badly enough to trade for is forward depth, and we'd only be gutting our keeper depth. We won't get a starter for him, and I don't think we need one either. Doesn't clear up enough cap space to be worth moving either.

Who can remember the glory days of the Bouna time/Greg Sutton competition
I actually still think Bouna was one of the better keepers we've had. Probably not top 5, but close. What a crazy fun guy to watch play though, I don't think I've ever seen a more entertaining keeper.

Yeah so top 10, still not terrible considering how many keepers we've had.

"This is of course all speculation, and we could very well see him stay with the US OpenCup and CONCACAF Champions League to play for this year, but it seems clear that the writing is on the wall for Ryan Meara."
C'mon man, what kind of article is this?? This isn't even a rumor, its wild guessing based on a rumor that's already been proven false.
We actually had four keepers LAST year!
Robles, Meara, Hartman, Castano.
