Other MLS Games Sept 23 - Sept 27
So Montreal hosts Chicago tonight.
Would prefer a few red cards and a draw.
Gilberto starts
Bekker starts
Chicago bench is interesting with Mikey Stephens, Harry Shipp and Mike Magee.
Forgot that its Jon Busch who is the second string keeper for Chicago - he's good for at least one incredulous post goal face each game.
So far Accam and Nyarko look like the ones to watch when we meet Chicago.
Awright, here we go Blue jays, gotta go!
Iggy! - Vic Rauter
Tied in Montreal now, that would be great for us. (Well a Chicago win would be even better, but I don't want to be greedy.)
Only problem, wrong guys keep getting the yellows. Igboananike apnd Nyarko getting yellows would be perfect...
Gilberto! Twinkle toes!! I had forgotten!!!
holy hell does Ciman look way too much like Corey Stoll.
Match fixing
Holy fuck!!! Russell Martin!!! Woohoo!!!
Shitty keeping there by bush
Yeah I say Seba's going to have fun with that Chicago defence on Saturday.
Ciman gets a 2nd yellow, how many red cards is that on the season for him? Only blight on his first year MLS resume really.
also Bekker's best game as a pro, for what it's worth.
Hopefully the Red Bulls can do us a solid and beat Orlando. We could use some room between us and those teams still trying to cross the red line.
We are all energy drinks tonight.
He's really doing well as deep lying playmaker for Montreal. He really needs an experienced destroyer next to him though, something he didn't really have at Dallas.Originally Posted by molenshtain

Meh, they're not catching us. I want NY to trip up for the last couple of games.
he finally looks inclined to play forward passes, which is a big step up from last year. Maybe it was just than Nelsen was a shit coach, who wouldn't even have been able to coax out of fucking Beethoven.
I wonder how important the Supporter's Shield really is to the teams. I only ask because now that New Jersey has clinched their playoff spot will they start the throttle back the amount of minutes their starters play in preparation for the post-season or are they still going to go balls-to-the-wall to get the Shield?
As indicated
NYRB host Orlando tonight at 7 pm
Saturday
MTL vs. DCU 5 pm. - tie game please, with lots of reds and yellows
Columbus hosts Portland 7:30 pm - Portland needs this one bad, CBus looking good of late and wanting to get that #2 spot - Portland win would be nice
NER hosts Philly 7:30 pm - Hate to say it, but a NER win here would be a good result for us as we would rather face NER in a home and away then in the first round - Only Creavalle can yellow out for the following game against us.
NOTE - Philly is playing SKC mid week in Chester for the US Open Cup. Not sure if they will rest players Saturday for that game.
Houston host Colorado 8:30 pm - chances of getting in running away from these two but don't be surprised by a Rapids win here - Houston has been poor at home of late
Vancouver host NYCFC - 10 pm - Whitecaps win please
Sunday
SKC host Sea 5 pm - More jockeying for position in the west
SJ host RSL - 7 pm - a loss here for either team is going to be BAD - so probably a 1-1 tie
LA vs Dallas - 9 pm - 2 vs 3 trying to seperate themselves from the lower part of the West
They want that home field advantage through the playoffs and think they can win the Cup - Cup final at home is a BIG advantage. They'll only turn off the jets once that's clinched.
Larin scores for Orlando and breaks the record for goals by a rookie.
Pretty set piece equalizer from Red Bulls to tie it up.
Pace kills that Red Bull press.
Nice counter by ORL to make it 2-1. Entertaining game but man the defenses on both sides sure are wonky.
Hmmm....Miazga and Higuita are both out the next game for accumulation.
NYRB are getting hit by that high line and speed. Wish we had speed on our team.
Damn, Larin with his second of the night. Quite the goal-fest too bad New Jersey couldn't be on top. Then again the game's not over.
Sorry that's Larin's third of the night.
Larin's hat trick is the big story, but that free kick by NYRB was amazing:

Against NYRB. What a night for our Canadian National! Hope he can do that v Honduras in November @ BC place!
FORMER FULL TIME KOOL-AID DRINKER
Drogba ripping DCU apart. Mtl has momentum leading to playoffs. Scary
“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.”
-Eduardo Galeano
I knew Drogba still had the skills to finish but this has been an unreal start for him.
