^ Good call.

I was cursing Paul Mariner last night after the game Plata played against Colorado.

[mowe]

Beautiful finish from Valeri, Portland up 1-0

Porland coming alive right now is not good for us.

Porland coming alive right now is not good for us.
if you want CCL next season, you'll be cheering for Portland right now. crush the Caps

Portland has a weak defence, but can score like hell. but they are usually poor away

Don't forget CCL teams get extra allocation.

Caps are more one-dimensional than TFC. Questions need to be asked why they didn't bring in a striker during the transfer window.

[notthesun]

Laba had a bit of a stinker. Pretty poor giveaway from him led to Portland's 2nd.

[OgtheDim]

Watching a bit of Columbus vs New England. We are better than those two teams. Not sure we can beat NER in their house but if that streaky team starts to streak the other way, we might be in with a chance.

[notthesun]

Of course New York is destroying Seattle, of course. End of the year playoff race and suddenly the East is beating the West left and right.

We need to win tomorrow or it's over.

Silva scores a cracker of a freekick. that's his 10th of the season. 2-2 at Chicago DCU

Silva: 10g, 4a; Plata: 13g, 5a; Urruti: 9g, 2a; Casey: 8g, 2a; Barrett: 7g, 1a#TFCProblems (https://twitter.com/hashtag/TFCProblems?src=hash)

Bad week for us with NY and Columbus winning and solidifying their hold on 4th and 5th. Philly and Houston did draw though.

TFC has Chivas, Portland, Houston, and Montreal at home and LA, NY, and NE away. Got to think we need to win at least 3 of 4 at home and 1 of 3 on the road.

That would put us at 46 points or 1.35 PPG. Still might not be enough considering 5th place Columbus has 1.38 PPG right now. Those two robbed points could really cost us.

[Alonso]

Watching LA right now...

Damn they've had a great first 10 minutes of play...

They're my prediction to take the MLS cup.

[Alonso]

LA are so well coached its unbelievable....

Where do we have to dump the Truck Load of money to get Arena?

Some one please point to the spot!

They are fully healthy and have all the momentum going into the playoffs.

[mowe]

Plus LA had Dan Gargan go 90 and Alan Gordon sub on and get the game winning goal.

Other ex-TFC players to score this weekend include Plata, Amarikwa, and Silva (2).
