You kind of want to feel bad for Frank Lampard because injuries have played a major role in derailing his ongoing train-wreck of a career in MLS, but when judging the totality of the last two years, it's hard to feel any sympathy. The warning signs were there on his first day in town when he had to apologize for an incident 13 years prior — when he drunkenly mocked Americans just hours after the 9/11 attacks. He holds the dubious distinction of being the first to hold a press conference to announce he signed with MLS, only to have signed with somebody else and subsequently play in Europe for half of NYCFC's inaugural season. Lampard then exhausted what he had left of his career in Manchester City, returning to New York unable to play because of injuries. In two seasons, he has totaled 10 games and 733 minutes. But he has found time to sign on with a British TV network to assist in its coverage of the European championships this year (tournament is midseason). His salary is $6 million. He is a month away from turning 38. Time is running out on shifting the narrative from unequivocal disaster.
