    Default Other MLS Games - August 12 - 10 Games in 1 Day

    What? You would prefer to watch the EPL!?!?!

    SKC @ Seattle 4pm - GAME OF THE WEEK Looking like a potential West Final. SKC's defence vs. the Seattle offence. Its really tight in the West and a win by Seattle is going to make it tighter. 3-1 for the home team


    RSL @ DCU 7pm - DCU blew up their team this week adding some good pieces for next season. RSL has a little bit more stability. 2-1 for RSL


    Chicago @ Columbus 7:30pm - Columbus is also transitioning to make a run for 2018 while still hoping to grab playoffs this season. Their defence has issues. Chicago is too stable and too disciplined to lose this one. 2-1 for the Fire.


    Orlando @ NYRB 7:30pm - Orlando has to start winning somewhere. Too bad they are up against a smarting NYRB coming off a derby loss. 2-0 for the home team.


    Colorado @ FCD 8pm - Colorado are awful away from home. They will stack 10 behind the ball and hope for a break. FCD relies upon speed on the break to win but will figure a way through this wall. 2-0 for FCD


    Vancouver @ NER 8pm - the Football Stadium Cup - NER's quick moving midfield will get stymied for 60 minutes but pull away at the end. 3-1 for NER


    Montreal @ Philly 8pm - We play these two teams within 3 days later this month. Montreal is playing better right now. Philly did absolutely nothing to get better during the trade time. So, of course, a 2-2 draw.


    San Jose @ Houston .8pm - Intriguing game. Houston's attack vs. the 3-5-2 of SJE. I expect by 2019 these two teams will be battling it out for the West title. For now, 3-1 for Houston.


    NYCFC @ LAG 11pm - You know LAG has fallen down the MLS pecking order when an LA vs NY game is not being hyped all week. The sort of game David Villa lives for - away, a struggle, his team failing in defence. Worth watching after getting home from our game. 3-2 win for NYCFC.

    It's an away MLS game for Chicago, I call for a tie. I feel a little awkward hoping for Columbus to tie or win.

    A draw is always good. With a number of red cards to both teams.

    I'm going to this game, I'm really confused what to do there. I want Chicago to drop points, buttttt, it's Montreal. Here's to some red cards lol.

    WOW... the Piss-Stains just killed the mighty Chicago in the second half.
    True that Cbus played well, but the Chicago defense was a total joke in the last 35 minutes, they totally fell apart.
    Could have been easily 4-1, or even more!

    We control our own fate entirely. The Shield is ours to lose.

    There are dumpster fires....and then there are slow moving garbage barges on fire out in the bay.

    LAG is the later.

    Watch out for New York City FC (are scum). They went into the Galaxy's crib last night and beat them 2-0 and will host lowly New England next Sunday. If our side loses in Chicago next Saturday and the Blue Scum beat the Revs, they'll be a point behind TFC.
    TORONTO FC, 2017 MLS CHAMPIONS!!! (Still the greatest in league history!)

    This is nice.

    Chicago will be pretty desperate to chase us by next our next game. That match Wed will be a fun one to watch.

    That Montreal was not as good as the score. Philly was a bit snake bit and that penalty was just pathetic. Chicago could get their mojo back in Montreal but here's hoping they wear Chi down.

    Video review works in Dallas calling back a goal with a move that started with a clear foul.

    Video review goes weird giving Kaka a red for hands to the face when he was joking with his ex teammate Collin.

    IMO our real foe for the Supporter's Shield in this final stretch of the regular season will be New York City, not Chicago.
