MLS Week 4
“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.”

Philly - Mtl tie. Good result for us.
Di Vaio's goal was opportunistic but their RB was cheating to the middle as against trying to block the shot. You want to see how not to defend a threatening player, there's an example.
The red card was very deserved.
Chicago 2 DC 2, another good result for us.
While objectively good, it still sucks that the Limp Act got their first points today.
Toronto FC baby...best team everrrrrrrrrr -Jozy
The DC-Chi game was also more entertaining to watch.

nice away crowd for SKC at Colorado. though they may have gotten some support from SKC FO
edit: apparently SKC FO buys all tickets for traveling supporters

I had to turn it off for a while so my daughter could watch something. I'll pick it up with the Vancouver match. I am enjoying having MLS Live.

Am I a bad person if I point out that I never turned on MLS today because the two early games from Spain (free preview on bein) were so good?

that SKC - Col game was good. last min winner by SKC

Anyone else watching the Vancouver game? Panned to Reo Coker doing the jerking it motion (with a finish). I wonder if he will get in trouble for that haha.
Some good news: Vancouver beat Houston. Hopefully Seattle takes care of Columbus tonight.
Good game VAN vs HOU. Man, MLS games are more entertaining than EPL games (other than my favourite EPL team).
Entertaining finish in Seattle so far.

Wow what a finish for the Kkkrew.
Toronto FC baby...best team everrrrrrrrrr -Jozy
Crew are 3-0 to start the season

And another good game shaping up in San Jose. Wondolowski with the goal!

New England steals the points at San Jose with a stoppage time goal that shouldn't have been allowed. Quick free kick with the ball still moving, should have been taken again, not sure how the ref missed it.
Very good week for us I think. Lots of draws.
Another last kick of the game goal for 1-1 draw at NY vs Chivas USA.
Crazy week of MLS

ExiledRed made a point about where we are in the standings in the game thread ... wow.
There are a lot of winless teams.

^ In the East alone, DC, Montreal, New York, and Chicago are all winless. And out of them, all but DC have four games under their belts.

I'd add New England as one that's going to struggle as well.Originally Posted by Cashcleaner
I know it's early days yet but we could be looking at a Raptors-like scenario playing out for us this year. The rest of the East looks so weak already, we just have to be decent to make the playoffs.

New York and Chicago will turn things around.
NY suffers from depth and age problem and Chicago is one trick pony team and Magee is cold right now

Well, I think we're more than just decent, though the loss on Saturday is something we have to acknowledge. At the end of the day, we still have a metric ass-load of potential with this club, and have the best shot at playoffs in years more-so because of the level of our own talent, rather than the lack of opposition in our conference.
That said, I know I'll still appreciate any help they give us.
