RSL vs Monterrey 2nd leg is a must watch

Portland at home vs RSL has potential to be entertaining, as well as NYRB at home vs Kansas City. Both game has potential to be a goalfest

New England vs. DC United on tuesday, US Open Cup qualification. DC managed to get 2300 attendance at the Maryland Soccerplex last round...

1-0 Houston. Will Bruin. Nice pass to split the D

1-1 off a free kick - Burch is the scorer....

Err 2-1 Houston off a nice header

Goals coming fast an furious...less than 2 mins apart

4-1 Houston.
Still 25 minutes left in the game

DC United got killed 4-0 by NY a week or so ago, now 4-1 (and counting) here.
meanwhile, they beat us in our park 3-0. Does that mean we are that shit?

might be shit but we currently hold a playoff berth :D lol

Nope, we don't currently hold a playoff berth.

2011 Playoff format:

a) Top three in each conference: Houston, NY, Phillie; and Galaxy, RSL, Colorado

b) Total 4 from either conference get a wild-card spot. Based on points & goal diff, that's:
1) Columbus
2) Seattle
3) New England
4) Dallas

TFC never showed up for the DC game. Plain and simple in my opinion. Don't mean a thang. Everyone can beat everyone on any given night in this league. Just depends who shows up ready to play.

It's not a question of any team beating any other team on any given night. It's a question of the amount of the win. We got smoked by DC on the scoreline. And they got smoked themselves the past couple of games.

DC's defense is terrible. And we did have some chances to score in the DC game. That game could have easily ended 2-2. Their win against us is the only thing keeping their season from being a disaster so far. Ben Olsen should send us a thank you card.

Anyone watching the Whitecraps at Shitlumbus?

The only way a TFC fan gets any satisfaction out of this one is if the stadium collapses.

Of course, there's no worry of that in Columbus.

NY Energy Drink is dominating SKC. DeRo was pulled down in the box for a penalty that Márquez missed. He set up Rodgers for a goal, is playing his high midfield role well and looking dangerous to score himself. 1-nil at the half

Carl Robinson on to start the 2nd half.

Want Van to win. Could care less about wither team but that is the best result for TFC.

Houston/ DC match- You can't be too shook up by the missed penalty call for DC when they lose by so much. Great for us as well chasing DC in the standings. Bruin's hat trick was quality.

Philly/ SJ- Philly came out with what seems like the right result. A man down after a weak red they get a weak penalty call their way and Le Toux gets his first after an incredibly easy shot with Busch committing far too early.

NY/ KC- NY on fire with some fluid looking football and tonnes of possession made it so all KC could do was try and keep up. Unbelievable miss penalty from Marquez/save by Neilson to keep the game close on the scoreboard at least.

Columbus/ Vanny- Vancouver did everything to lose this game in the most exciting way possible. Talk about lacking the final touch. Not one but 2 goals were prevented from going over the line when all that was required were toetaps. Miraculous defending by Columbus has Vanny gnashing their teeth.

Colorado/ CHI- Great match with a couple of great goals. Fair result with not much amiss in that game except attendance in the Rockies. The champs didn't get enough people out to see this Akpo's 1st MLS goal. Just incredible.

Portland/ Salt Lake- Wow. Bad week for Salt Lakers. So close but stumbling in CCL and then losing their unbeaten streak the very next game to an expansion side. Incredible goal by Cooper though.

Chivas/ NE- Labrocca MOM for a reason but he wasn't alone with Moreno and Mondaini providing magic. NE definitely gave away a goal. Also of note: An MLS ref overturns a call correctly. Good job.

Dallas/ LA- What a great game for the Dallas support that stayed to the end of the match. Rain delay practically emptied the stadium but a late long goal let Dallas steal 2 goals off Ricketts.

Philly gets a 1-0 win even after going down 10 men for half the game.

So is the next Will Bruin in next year's draft?
