Let's try to keep all game threads and predictions and whatnot on this thread.

I will post stream links as they come available

Some good games this week though

Kansas City at New England (4pm)
-two mid table teams and inconsistent teams battling out to a draw

Houston at Seattle (4pm)
-Probably the best defence going up against one of the more creative attacking squad in MLS. Houston has trouble scoring on the road esp with Ching and Seattle will find Houston defence hard to crack. 1-1 draw prediction

Columbus at Chicago (8pm)
-Two rivals going at it. Columbus will want to play better than last week's draw vs DC where they frankly lucked out to get a draw, and Chicago's form has been not good lately. I still think Chicago has enough firepower to take Columbus, esp with no Chad Marshall for Columbus.

Dallas at Colorado (930pm)
-Dallas has been playing decent lately, and Colorado suddenly plays like mid table team they were expected to be. Dallas's away form has been terrible though, and Colorado should take all 3 points

LA at Chivas (11pm)
-Another heated derby match. LA is starting to squeaks some 1-0 games, however unconvincingly. Chivas's dominant first half form suddenly disappeared and looks vulnerable.
Probably another draw.

oh dear lord

Houston defence is missing Cameron, Boswell, Hainault. That's basically their back 4 lol

Julis James to get a start

Yohan
07-11-2009, 03:10 PM
on paper, Houston will do well to come out with a draw, with Ching and Holden away on Gold Cup duties

Yohan
07-11-2009, 03:18 PM
Julius James shitting his pants twice already

Yohan
07-11-2009, 03:19 PM
both teams defence looks shaky, and Seattle defence gave Houston too much room and Brad Davis blasts one

1-0 Houston

Man that Seattle crowd looks way better than at our games.
But then again they have no beer garden to contend with to draw people out of their seats.

and most of them are STANDING

their chants are getting better every game too

I think seattle will surpass toronto as best atmosphere in MLS, since they will keep growing as we seem to have stagnated

Oh boys. The linesman screws this up and Montero 'scores' on a goal which looked like Chabala cleared off the line

Houston 1-1 Seattle

I think ties would be the best results for us in all games with the exception of Houston and Chivas. Since the top 2 teams in the West are guarenteed a play-off spot we may as well have these 2 teams run away with it and beat all our competition in both confernces.

yeah. but what a year 1 they are having as an MLS franchise

now I dunno how true this comment is, but the commentators were saying that the Sounders were being spoken of, and being treated with same respect as Seahawks and Mariners

LA has really come back into contention.
ONe thing I've learned from LA's season: ties are much more valuable in MLS than in other leagues. Normally a tie seems shitty. But in MLS, you can hold together with ties until you get on a run.
