Zelarayan was sooo smooth there. Was beautiful to watch. The quote from Porter getting them moving side-to-side was really quite insightfull.

Long way to go yet but as many up here are saying, Seattle has played bad for now 8 out of 9 halves they have played in MLS Cup Finals.
Schmetz already has one foot on his way to a job interview in hogtown. No thanks tho.Quote:

Starting Roldan over Leerdam is kind of dumb.
Yeah, no thanks to Schmetzer.
Columbus playing Porter ball to a tee - clog the middle, pace, second balls, long direct, defensive pressure, 2 strong CB's who move up into the passing lanes & then retreat.
Half way there but a well played game so far by them.
WOW, just wow, what I'm doing?
I found myself cheering big time for the piss-stains, lol...
Anyways, great first half for Columbus, and Seattle doing a big zero, nada in the first half.
Go Columbus!
I like that young Aiden Morris for Columbus. One to watch.
I guess we have to give credit to Bez. Whatever happens.Quote:

Its the Nashville's that I most despise.
I think that’s a bit of a reach.Quote:

Now if you’re argument is they are no dynasty, I would have to agree.

You know, we always talk about Frei but shouldn’t we talk about Williams who we basically jettisoned for Zavaleta on $300k a year.
Zavs got that (too much IMHO) after 2016 after a better season then Williams (who still had 2015 hanging over him).Quote:

That is fair. Not sure I’d see him as an ideal starter on today’s team either, despite being first choice for Columbus.Quote:

Done and done - 2 in 4 and completely outplayed in those two, and a fluke in the first one with no shots on goal (still bitter), and even last year they were outplayed for more than half until a fluke deflection turned the tide —- not a dynasty, they stole a star from us in 2016.....

Zelarayan with an all-time performance. #InvestInYourDPs
Piss on your shirt.
Piss on your shirt.
Those yellow stripes look like Piss on your Shirt.
Losing by 3 is the greatest losing margin in the 25 year history.
i knew even as i was cheering for them, i would hate it the minute the whistle sounded. great game for Zelarayan. Trully impressive from a guy i already liked. Great performance for the rest of the crew. But still. ew.
Congrats to Bez though.
Congrats to Bez and the Crew.
Seattle just aren't that good.
