Um yeah...Fuck the Impact. I hope they go out like a train wreck.

Fuck the Impact hope they get fucking embarrassed in Houston. Tic Tac fuckers.
The French are hardly a race, they are a culture/language. Ask Quebec about 'pure l'aine'.
It might be a bit distasteful and youre welcome to dislike it/report it. It is not however 'racist'
Nope, its not acceptable and they are not considered a race either.
Definitely an community/culture but not a race
Ah this is a stupid argument. i wish i hadnt even posted.

Oh yeah, Niques les putes de Montreal
Wow boysss... easy.
No need to this racist, not racist crap talk. wop isnt cool, frenchies isnt cool.
I dont, however, think that Walms intended to offend the french people as a whole - he was simply talking about the Impact. no need to make an issue out of nothing.

Frenchies is considered a racist term by some.
Regardless, last I heard it was the Impact we have issues with, not the people of Quebec, nor people who speak French.
That and there are historically good reasons not to describe us as Orange in a Toronto vs. French speaking people way. I'm sure it was unintentional but.....well...think Orange Order people.

Back to the topic.
Chicago fired it's coach, as predicted.
Definitely. For those saying that French isn't a race, we must remember that the whole concept of race is socially constructed - there are no biological basis (thus, it's impossible to say that is a race, that isn't a race - race as an idea first emerged in 16th-17th century Europe to describe working-class people as biologically different from the bourgeois). While the French aren't often considered a race, they are conceptualized as such by this sorta language, and certainly were understood as such in Canada historically. .... long story short, it's besides the point whether you believe the French are a race or not, to point a finger at an entire group of people in such a manner 'creates race' and is an act of racism..
And while I doubt anyone is intentionally associating us with the Orange Order, fuck the Orange Order.
....so, who do people prefer going foward tonight? Seattle or Colorado? Always had a soft spot for Colorado since Wynee is there.
Colarado for the Schadenfreude.

It's not like Walms called them Frogs. Holy. Lets all move on. I think we're all agreed Impact suck and were all Houston fans for a day. Anything to spoil there year fucking tabernacks.
Doesn't matter, whatever no big deal, perhaps over reacted a little bit but to say it's not racist is silly. It's not overly racist but does have an underlying tone to it. I don't think the poster is racist but stuff like that gets to me. On topic I think if seattle can get some momentum with a win tonight it wouldn't surprise me to see them win the whole thing. Same goes for the impact getting some confidence with a win tomorrow night. Want Colorado to win though.
Rooting for Seattle tonight. A Timbers-Sounders playoff series would be EPIC.
Yep. And it still won't be televised in Canada.
FAIL.

The lack of knowledge from commentators sometimes for MLS is shocking.
You'd think after a long career in the premier league Keller would realize that when someone goes in two footed and takes out a players standing leg it warrants a yellow card.
Colorado coming on a bit.
Watching the nbcsn feed on justin tv they are so pro seattle its sickening.
Wow what a boner by the seattle gk
Wow glad I replaced Gspurning with Irwin for my fantasy team.
Portland vs Seattle on Sat
