    I wish. Esteli is a pretty decent town in northern Nicaragua, the area around there is beautiful. Good cigars and rum, a cooler climate...what more can you ask for? If this was an important match later in the tourney I might have considered it.

    It will be interesting to see how the travel affects the team, Esteli is just over 2 hours from Managua and there isn't much in the way "nice" hotels that tfc would normally stay at in town. I'd guess they go back to Managua after the match.

    If I had the cash I would go in a heartbeat. I have friends living down there that I have not seen in years.

    I only ask because I'm trying to get an Esteli jersey, and would obviously put some extra in the envelope for whomever was nice enough to pick one up.

    And, yea. Would LOVE to go myself! I've been peeing into ziplocks for weeks!

    I'd love to go. I shudder at what the flight would cost though.

    “Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.

    I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’

    And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”
