Over 50,000 in Montreal tonight for Impact v. Santos Laguna in the Champions League, contrast that with just over 10,000 in the same competition for Houston v. Atlante yesterday.

kind of getting stoked for tonight
― jergins, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:04 (fourteen years ago) link
UARRRGHGH I'm super stoked but the 10.30 start time is going to make it impossible for me to go out to a bar & watch, plus it'd take me an hour to get home after the game. So far, no one I know has admitted to staying home to watch it quietly.

Laurel have you ever used espn360 to watch games? It might be an option.

Thanks, Dan, but the laptop belongs to my roommate and the wifi belongs to whichever neighboring network we're piggybacking on at that moment, and usually is only good in 40-second chunks before we have to switch networks.
Sorry to shoot down a good suggestion but I basically have no media/electronics options at home. I was fine with that until televised sports became A THING in my life.
― But not someone who should be dead anyway (Laurel), Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:15 (fourteen years ago) link
Ah, too bad.
Anyway, I'm interested to see who gets a start tonight. I'd really like to see Maurice Edu and Jose Torres get some time because of their recent club successes, but Edu's hurt and this game might be too important to mess around with inexperienced players too much.

Also, I'm curious whether Gonzalo Segares from the Fire gets to play at all for CR.

dan are you going to the qualifier in chicago this weekend?
― jergins, Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:48 (fourteen years ago) link
Per Ives, half the starting XI for CR are going to be card-shy, which combined with really shitty old Astroturf makes me think this could be a hilarious(ly tragic) comedy of errors.
― But not someone who should be dead anyway (Laurel), Wednesday, 3 June 2009 19:53 (fourteen years ago) link
I want to go to the qualifier really bad, but a good friend is having a housewarming party the same night and I'm trying to save my $. I hear it hasn't completely sold out yet, so I might still cave in and go.

Really though, how much worse could it have been? At least Torres got some time.
If they don't take three points this weekend there'll be trouble.
i went to the usa-grenada game tonight. beckerman stood out, for his play or his hair i'm not sure. adu got manhandled by some mediocre but physical genadans. every time evans touched the ball he got cheers from the sounder faithful. fun night, though it probably should have been 7-0.

USA B- team was really dull except for about 8 minutes in the mid-late second half. Honduras didn't play W. Palacios, or Suazo, or Guevara for some reason.

^^^the downside of the double-header.
Bummin' I couldn't make it to Soldier Field tonight, but at least I get to watch on Spanish-language TV.
― brash trash talker (dan m), Thursday, 23 July 2009 23:25 (fourteen years ago) link
Also, it took me a second to figure out that the Palacios on the field for Honduras was not Wilson.
Gonna be real surprised if the USA can pull this one off given that most of the best players have skipped off back to Europe already.

nice work guys glad i will get to see u sunday. trying to figure who i want them to play, who i should root for tonight
― avuenjo, Friday, 24 July 2009 01:48 (fourteen years ago) link
I'm rooting for Costa Rica due to the fact that 1. they're not Mexico, and 2. Gonzalo Segares is my favorite Fire player.

― PASS WORD THE GAME SHOW (avuenjo), Sunday, 26 July 2009 20:37 (fourteen years ago) link
Tonight's CCL matches between Red Bull/W Connection and Herediano/Cruz Azul have been simultaneously pretty amazingly bad and entertaining. The first was an own-goal fest and neither team wants to play defense in the latter (it's 5-2 Azul now). Still looking forward to the eventual match featuring Joe Public FC.
