    Default MLS 04 Oct

    LA vs NYRB, 8pm
    -No Donovan or Keane though

    US Open Cup final: Seattle vs Chicago, 10pm
    -Something for Chicago to salvage. Though from MLS point of view, probably want Seattle to win, b/c they'd put in a stronger squad for next year's CCL.

    For some reason I really dislike Luke Rodgers.

    Barrett should have had 3 goals by now (2nd one would have been offside, bug nonetheless).

    Worst chanting I've ever heard.

    The Yankees are playing, I wouldn't expect a sell out during the baseball playoffs.

    There's like 28 billion people in New York. They can't even find 20,000 girls to come out and watch Golden Balls on the night of a baseball game?

    2-0 NY. Marquez finally does something and Henry scores. LA looks very tired after playing Sat and flying to NY

    Good atmosphere in Seattle.
    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    Out of curiosity, is there a reason why Seattle uses their old USL grounds for the US Open Cup matches instead of QWest Field? The easy answer is attendance, but all the other MLS teams still play in their primary grounds.

    attendance. and probably cheaper operating cost than playing in CenturyLink Field

    The planning and coordination behind that TIFO was fantastic. Other supporters groups need to step their game up
