lolhnson

man jimmy neilsen was on some creepy shit with those faces he was making, was that a hannibal lecter impression?

I think he's just creepy.

ozzie tiffert ej all in a row wtf guys

cold light of day brings many conspiracy theories to light, it's akin to rubbernecking a bad traffic accident watching sounders fans deal with their first big loss in so public a manner across the breadth of the usa soccer interverse

not going to lie, after waking up in a bad, bad, BAD mood in seattle a year ago, schadenfreude is real

btw, still h8 KC, will be traveling there in a couple months to tell them so

any articles you recommend for laughs?

nah mostly twitter and msg board stuff, tho sigi has some good quotes in http://seattletimes.com/html/jerrybrewer/2018879038_brewer09.html and there some lol conspiracy bits in the comments too

my fave:

"It's difficult when you're playing against a team at home, so the crowd helps them, and then when you're playing against the referee as well, and he makes some absolutely, I thought, ridiculous calls,"

um yeah dude like the last two years eh

Thanks Dan! That whole article has some great laughs in it.

Lots of shitty reffing over the weekend though, that DC/PHI game last night was especially lol.

rumors of the Revs being sold/relocated

caleb porter to coach timbers?

spose it couldn't get much worse for them, still pissed we lost to that shitty team

You only lost because the ref let them kick the shit out of you.

fire vs dc last night

ahaha

united really needed the points - i was scared of that game, but najar at RB was something else, as was saragosa of all fucking people

it was kinda weird being front and center in EVERY medium shot of barra all night (announced attendance was like 10k, which was very generous)

it was blatantly obvious how much logan pause was missed, the fire midfield looked totally disorganized. and don't even get me started on the dude we had playing rb on the night...

I'm told that no matter who Timbers hire as coach, decision was made earlier this summer to widen JWF to 74 yards (1/2)

carlos bocanegra to fire?

I got sort of awkwardly quoted in this excellent article about former Fire GM/President Peter Wilt:

and also bye bye marco pappa, transfer moved up.

making room for ol' charlie blackmouth, I suspect.

Nice article. Thanks.

Julian De Guzman is horrible.

That's all.

I'm watching a replay of the other night's CHI v. TOR game and I don't think I'm going to make it to the half. Toronto is more than poor; they're atrocious. They had a little sign of life a month or so ago but are back to their early season abject state.

They were able to keep it somewhat interesting in the second half, I was really hoping for a demolition job from the Fire but it never materialized.

Made it to halftime. Called it good.

Getting a little sick of the hyping of Portland/Seattle today, tbqf. Why because Portland sucks and there are much more important playoff-implication matches happening too.

KC/Houston draw last night only made the Chicago/Montreal and New York/Columbus games more intense today. 5 points separating the top 4 in the East.

And don't overlook Dallas/Vancouver - if Dallas win they're within 1 point of Vancouver for the final playoff spot.

Excellent point. Dallas has really come on strong of late, they were pretty widely written off early in the year but have gotten healthy just in time.

Though I think the last home draw might have killed their shot.
