Meh...life is too darn complex to expect people to all think the same.
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
Fair points in response to my post. I guess the constant roster changes in MLS make it easier for me to instinctively support Montreal in these situations - as in, when it's Oduro and that kid Porter fresh out of college against a bunch of random Central Americans, I'm more inclined to root for the guys I'm familiar with (save for maybe a couple Impact mainstays)
Can we move on to more pressing CONCACAF issues now?
I'd like to know if there's anything we as supporters of this tournament can do to change that cheesy music they play on every single highlight reel. I'd rather hear the commentary in Klingon or have Rock And Roll All Nite played over top. ANYTHING is better than that music.

I'm so conflicted with the MTL game now. I want success for Canada, I want the MTL market to get some buzz and my friend John Smits just got loaned to them for the game. However, as the Impact get deeper and deeper, I've realized.. I don't want them to win this before us. And, honestly, now that a Mexican team probably won't win it, I've fairly happy. Costa Rica is a team/country I don't particularly hate either as their tactics aren't Honduras or Panama-esq.
You definitely make it hard on yourself.
Canada plays next against Dominica in World Cup qualification Round 2. I know you know this but I'm just mentioning for the simplification I actually subscribe to.
Canada plays in June.
This is just Montreal. Good opportunity for your friend, though.

CMNT is and will always be my number one team. I'm there every game and usually with 10 or so friends I forced with me. I just see the connection between healthy/successful teams and a healthy/successful Canada. With that said I'm missing all the damn Canada games because I'm still here until July. Ugh. The worst.

Alexi Lalas @AlexiLalas 4m4 minutes ago Montreal scores. 0-1 (0-3) at half. Chance of red card now at 376%. #CCL #LDAvMTL
That's so CONCACAF.
1-1 vamos la liga !
Yup, questionable call. One goal. It looks like the fix is in...
The pressure on Montreal right now is immense.
Montreal pinned in their own half now, another goal is inevitable
Ciman looks like his head is going to explode.
There's the Montreal defence we've come to know and love.
Getting closer :@)
And here they come, 2-1...
