    To get you warmed up, good interview by Landycakes on the Don. A lot of little gems in this.

    WOW blooper goal in the first 30 seconds of a cup final. Funny thing, I had a feeling it would happen once the keeper took a second touch.

    1-0 Portland

    Those were two of the more ridiculous goals allowed all year.

    Bad for the league. Oh well.

    From another goalkeeper misplay no less.

    The second Portland goal was a huge blunder by the assistant. How could he not see that the ball went out? In that situation, he really had one job to do...

    OK how did the ref miss that handball on the line?

    These kind of mistakes by the refs in a cup final!

    So frustrated. Started watching the game. Saw the first goal. The image freezes. Spent the last hour on the phone Rogers. They have no idea what's wrong and will send service next Saturday. Worst possible timing. I got a $50 credit but no game.
    I not a happy person right now.

    Portland lifts the trophy because they somehow figured out how to win on the road. Porter gets most of the credit here I think.

    Gotta say the officiating crew blew at least 3 calls there.

    Poor final, for all involved. Bush league goals, awful officiating. Glad it wasn't the KKKrew though. Between this and the GOTY, bad look for MLS.

    I'm sure there are bad calls that have happened in other leagues and other cup finals around the world , and I'm sure there are some bad calls that have happened even in World Cup finals throughout the years, but because this is the MLS we have all these doomsayers commenting how it's bad for the league please give me a break. I sat and watched as a neautral and I was entertained , it was not a boring final and in the end that's a good look for the league !

    Uh, Eurosnob?

    Have you seen the video of that blown call on the 2nd goal? The ball was 3 feet out of bounds. Not to mention the time when a Columbus player took a walk about AROUND THE BACK OF THE NET and came back on the field, all during play.


    There is bad refereeing and then there is embarrassingly bad refereeing.

    Congratulations to the Portland Timbers for winning the MLS Cup, their first championship in their 40 year, four leagues history.

    And HA-HA! to the Columbus Pisstains for losing it on their home turf. Looks good on them, especially after their classless douchebag fans threw beer cans at Portland after the second Timbers goal.

    And it must burn the supporters of the Vancouver Shitecraps and Seattle Snotbags that Portland got the MLS Cup ahead of them.

    Yes, you play to the whistle or to the call but as there is rarely a whistle on a ball out of play, I can't blame Tchani all that much.

    No class from the Pisstains' supporters, but we already knew that. All the more reason to enjoy seeing them get bummed out.

    Great result for Portland and on balance they deserved the win created a pile of chances in the second half. Playing a single game away like that was a difficult challenge. I'm not convinced that this is the right format for the cup myself. As much as you get a better atmosphere it's not really fair. For me at a neutral ground is the way to go.

    Would like to see Will Johnson come to Toronto next season - he'll be on the move.

    Loved the interview with Garber... let's pay 5 guys a Million each rather than 1 guy 5... Garber wasn't keen on that question.
