    You want them to be weekday afternoon games?

    Since Mexican league is on weekends and probably other central American leagues too,All games will be played weekdays(Tuesday/Wednesday).
    Great love does not exist without joy and without great suffering ,that's why One club is worth only as much as its fans !

    If it’s a Mexican visiting team, then I accept nothing can be done other than to play weekday afternoon. Which I would do in KC in February - its a safety issue for the players (maybe fans too)

    For TFC-CAI I would move to a weekend. If a Panamanian league game that 2000 people are going to can’t be moved with 3 months notice, somebody is being a real jerk.

    totally agree and the late night game during the winter months are great excuses to get out and enjoy the weather. Makes the winter blahs seem more bareable

    I commend all those willing to freeze for this game.

    Though you know these games should really be played in Florida, I mean they are already down there for pre-season. So why not?

    Maybe TFC ought to setup an affiliate down there and build a fan-base with the snowbirds. I think many would be happy to take a week vacation in Florida and watch a game in February.

    what folks are forgetting is that Atlanta are likely to be without almiron and martinez next season (plus their manager).

    the chances that they get the rebuild right and are a force again next year are slim.

    Its not as absurd you think it is. No one wants to watch a crap game with errant passes, players slipping, getting injured, and fans becoming ice poles.

    I mean I like to watch sports with shit weather because of atmosphere, except soccer.

    Have fun folks!

    I'll take the snow/cold over some the rain pours we've had over the years.

    Who remembers that one time vs Columbus when Wiedeman scored how bad it was raining then.

    At least with the cold, you can always add layers!

    Why not? Why would we give Mexican team home field advantage in both games?

    Lose early, lose often.

    Let's focus on the league.

    You should have come to the draw party with your lucky horseshoe- the bracket isn’t favouring your desire.
