FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- Anyone who bought an Osi Umenyiora No. 90 jersey after he signed with the Atlanta Falcons is going to be in for a surprise. The defensive end is now wearing No. 50. Umenyiora took the practice field Wednesday donning the new number after working out a swap with young linebacker Pat Schiller, who spent last season on the practice squad and is back to take another shot at making the team. "My folks said they didnt like didnt like 90 on me," Umenyiora said. Why? "I dont know," he replied. "They just didnt like it." Umenyiora has been on quite a numerical journey after signing with the Falcons during the off-season, having spent the first decade of his career with the New York Giants. He wore No. 72 with the Giants, but that number belonged to Atlantas top offensive lineman, Sam Baker. Umenyiora chose No. 90, but that only lasted through two preseason games. After being urged by his parents to switch, Umenyiora asked about 58, only to be told that number was unofficially retired by the team after being worn by longtime Falcons linebacker Jessie Tuggle. The next choice was 57, but Umenyiora ran into the same issue -- that number was once worn by Falcons great Jeff Van Note and is no longer given out. So, Umenyiora settled on No. 50 -- which may be more appropriate, anyway, given hes been lining up a lot at outside linebacker during the preseason with Atlanta trying out a 3-4 alignment. Linebackers generally wear numbers in the 50s. Of course, changing numbers meant working out an arrangement with Schiller. The second-year player couldnt resist having a little fun when asked about the negotiations. "I definitely came out on top," Schiller said. "He took me to all-you-can-eat Golden Corral." Playing along, a reporter pointed out that Umenyiora got off for about $10 -- not bad for a guy who signed a two-year, $8.5 million deal with the Falcons. "Is that what it costs?" Schiller said with a straight face. "Well, I loaded up on the rolls. I very much stuffed my face." Umenyiora chuckled when told of his teammates comments. "Is that what he told you?" Umenyiora asked. "It was a little more expensive than that. I took care of him." Schiller gets the last word in these negotiations. "Theres a rumour going around a Bugatti," he said, referring to one of the worlds most expensive cars. "But you can see the parking lot. Its not in there." Wholesale Sneakers From China .

New York extended its unbeaten streak to four games to improve to 3-2-5, and FC Dallas dropped to 5-3-1. Thierry Henry assisted on the goal with a through ball from the top of the penalty box to Wright-Phillips, who fired a shot into centre of the net from 6 yards. Wright-Phillips scored his sixth goal of the season and his fifth in the last three games. "Its one of those things when you are scoring you get the luck of the green," Wright-Phillips said. "Im just trying to get in the right spot and focus and hit my target." The Red Bulls played most of the game with a one-man advantage after Dallas Je-Vaughn Watson was given a red card in the 10th minute for a hard foul on New Yorks Tim Cahill. Watson kicked Cahill in the lower stomach. "It was a karate kick, I see those once or twice a year," Cahill said. After the game in the locker room Cahill showed the red scratches on his stomach from the foul. The two teams combined for four yellow cards on top of the red card. "It was a combination of things," New Yorks Dax McCarty said. "It was a stone-cold red card, extremely chippy play in the first half. In the second half it seemed the ref swallowed his whistle. I thought Dallas was verry physical and did a lot of stuff off the ball that you dont necessarily want to see.dddddddddddd" The game was the 100th career game for Henry, who registered his third assist of the season on the goal. "Im not thinking of the 100th game, today we did enough to win," Henry said. " They (Dallas) played better than us with only 10 men, its difficult because Dallas did not deserve to lose." Red Bulls goalkeeper Luis Robles made a diving save to his right side to stop Blas Perezs penalty attempt in the 58th minute. FC Dallas was awarded the penalty shot after Cahill was called for a foul on Danny Garcia. Less than two minutes later, Robles made a two-handed leaping stop to prevent a goal by Garcia. Garcia made his MLS debut in the game. Robles finished with three saves and FC Dallas goalkeeper Raul Fernandez also finished with three saves. "Very heartbroken and very disappointed," Dallas coach Oscar Pareja said. "On a day that we couldnt put a lot of things together, we end up losing against New York, a team that took advantage of their one opportunity in the second half. Disappointed to play 80 minutes with 10 men, its hard." Dallas played the game without Zach Loyd and Michel because of yellow card accumulation suspensions. Loyd and Michel had both started the last five games for FC Dallas. ' ' '
