Fuck Toronto FC.

I love both Portland Timbers and Houston Dynamo.

This comes from watching a stupid amount of MLS early in the morning before work..

I prefer Portland though

FC DALLAS ALL THE WAY MAN

I love Seattle Sounders.

Shame they're bottom and don't have Montero at the moment.

Portland have Diego Valeri, so I like them.

NEW ENGLAND REVOLUTION BABY

Henry's pretty good.

We fucking did it again. In 11 games this season we have conceded 7 in the 80th minute on including 5 in the 90th minute +.

Seventh year of this team, seven completely new squads, eight managers and they all have the same problem

youre clearly missing Torsten.

Never can usually catch it but all about the Revs!!

As much as people like to say he was great, he really was nothing special for us, there were a number of other non-DP players who could do almost as good a job.

Last year we had a similar problem to a lesser extent. In the last 8 league games we allowed 6 goals after the 80th.

And once again. 2-1 against San Jose, an 81st minute goal this time.

Best game we've played all season, completely outmatched Philly even though we were a man down. Osorio was excellent, Brockie was exciting off the bench, and Koevermans came off the bench for his first game in ten months after tearing his ACL.







And then we conceded in the 91st. 1-1. If this were a movie about a hard luck team no one would believe it.

Canada has scored 1 goal and gotten 1 point in 9 games in 2013.

Honduras make it to the World Cup. Mexico lost tonight, Panama were seconds away from taking the playoff spot from them being 2-1 up against the USA with seven minutes left, but conceded twice in stoppage time to go out.

Heartbreaker.

Spanish Translation: "GOOOOAAAAAAL The US of A PUTS us in the playoffs!!!!!" USA!

"It is because of the USA that we are being placed in the playoff ...BECAUSE OF THEM , NOT DUE TO YOU..NOT ANY OF YOU in the green shirts ....IT WAS THEM!!.NOT YOU!..THEY DID IT!!!!!NOT YOU! remember this forever..... KEEP THIS CLEARLY IN MIND FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIVES! You do NOTHING for the shirt, you do NOT put the effort, you have NOTplaced us in the playoffs , you HAVE NOT placed us in the WORLD CUP ..YOU WOULD NOT HAVE KEPT US ALIVE....IT WAS ESTADOS UNIDOS, NOT YOU.! .NOT YOU AND YOUR ARROGANCE/CONCEIT.....NOT YOU AND YOUR INFAMY....NOT YOU AND YOUR MORONS/PUNKS....
....
"IT IS A FAILURE.....and UNDESERVED -to go through to the playoff- WE HAD NO ARGUMENTS to earn the playoffs, THE USA, WITH SUBS , WITH MANY SUBS as the visiting team shows us once again what the USA is all about ....how to play the game with dignity, how to approach the sport..MExico is a horror, just terrible....A FAILURE....
......
THE USA HAS SURPASSED US ..They are better than Mexico in SOCCER ....THEY EVEN HAVE THE LUXURY OF PLAYING THEIR SUBS and KEEPING US LIVE.... I hope our coach wears the pants and resigns..He has failed as coach...."






While that was the most disappointing frantic come-from-behind-with-2-stoppage-time-goals victory I've ever watched, it's consolation knowing that all of Mexico was cheering for the USA.

Also, they owe us free burritos for life. Beef burritos, not that sissy chicken shit.

How's the wife doing?

She's awesome. Part of the reason my visits are so rare now is because of how much I'm enjoying the married life, if you catch my drift.

How good is Camilo of Vancouver Whitecaps, folks?
