Wish we were playing this week too. Although it sucks we have two bye weeks so early in the year, I guess it's better than having to play 9 away games prior to our home opener.

Not too many interesting matches this week. I guess the best by far will be SKC v. Portland and NYRB v. DCU.

[Yohan]

I think Philly-Dallas might be dark horse good game. Also curious for SJ vs Chicago for Wooden Spoon and whether SJ's win away at Seattle was fluke or not

[OgtheDim]

SKC vs Portland for the theorists

Orlando vs. Vancouver for the giggles

[Canary10]

I watched the Chicago-Vancouver game Saturday since I somehow don't get TSN2. Even though I pay a ton of money to get all the specialty soccer channels....anyway. Chicago looked absolutely horrendous. That's one team we will beat in the table. Only need three more like that and we're playoff bound.

Philly and 2 of Orlando, NYRB, Montreal, NYFC or DCU (I'm suspecting there will be a drop for them this season)

If you're hungry for more TFC, our USL side play the Charleston battery at 730 on Saturday

Good stuff. USL games still all shown live on Youtube?

[OgtheDim]

Ugh....Paul Mariner getting worse.

[OgtheDim]

Oh, just saw Cameron Porter with his knee.....bad memories of Koevs.


Effin Turf.

[portu]

Anyone else surprised at how stellar Saunders has been so far? Would be on two clean sheets if it weren't for that stupid OG versus Orlando

edit: Also Dan Kennedy isn't even on the bench at Dallas!??! I would kill for him here

[OgtheDim]

NYCFC looking like the altitude and the travel is getting to them.

Cronin being a beast.

[OgtheDim]

Jeremy Hall a starting CD for NER? Oh look, he just got a yellow for arguing.

[gunnerken]

Only 2 goals (both by Dallas) in 3 games this afternoon...I think that equals the amount of red cards...hope for more offence in this evening's matches (including TFC2!)...

[OgtheDim]

The only good thing about that NYCFC Colorado game was Maestrioni's moustache.

Dont forget the outfit! The guy was on point today!

[OgtheDim]

The Orlando VCWC camera viewpoint seems to be from the Goodyear Blimp.


Marc Weber ‏@ProvinceWeber (https://twitter.com/ProvinceWeber) 56s56 seconds ago (https://twitter.com/ProvinceWeber/status/579441303982776321) Please join me in a halftime prayer for the Orlando cameraperson, who is clearly on Mars. Probably quite hungry. And missing their kids.


Between a way too high shot and WAAAY too many shots of the same supporter section, you can tell its their first ever soccer broadcast.

Octavio Rivero... holly shit.

This is like the player that Gilberto should have been. This guy does everything.

[OgtheDim]

Orlando is going to struggle once the highs go down.

Manneh should have been off with a two footed challenge. Another poorly reffed game.

[notthesun]

Boy am I glad the East sucks. 5 Eastern teams played today and none earned more than a point.

[Cas87]

Looking forward to the SJ game tomorrow as they open their new SSS, looks good for the photos and interested to see how it looks on tv for a game

Should be goal of the week. Friggin' brilliant header.

He's a good player, eh? Might have twenty goals this season.

I'd like to say that I called Rivero for a 15+ goal season back in December in the Offseason Player Movement/Speculation thread

Stadium is a tad close to the airport.

Ty, kind sir.

[MartinUtd]

I tuned into the SJ/Chicago game just after the 2nd goal. Chicago's keeper is looking very weak, is he their regular guy for the season? If so, I'm really looking forward to April 4th.

[Brooker]

I think I remember Ty Harden trying that exact same goal for us and getting injured. Always liked him. Happy for him.

[MartinUtd]

Half time: Alexi whatshisname just asked Garber if he thinks the league is "communist" lol

Lovely stuff.

I'd give $1,000 to the first journo who asks him to say "I'm your huckleberry".
