    As I said last time we took exception to being called thuggish, we were third in the league at dishing out fouls in 2011. It is not an irrational statement to make about RSL. I don't like it, but the fouls are there to count.

    That's like, one guy.

    I read through most of the thread, and they're taking it pretty seriously (nobody has predicted a loss for LA, but I wouldn't have expected much of that).

    Anywho. If we win, it'll be by a goal, and it'll be uuuuugggllly. This game is going to be a meatgrinder. Just going by how Arena is going to bunker us to death, and basically clog up our passing game.

    Psh is all I have to say to that. I didn't cause the injury nor did the team I cheer for. He's even claiming it was "back spasms." So if it really was a consussion and he plays on Sunday and takes another knock whether it be hard or just run of the mill, and really does serious damage to his brain. Well, it's his own damn fault.

    So many athletes don't take concussions seriously since in a few minutes you're usually good enough to resume but the long term effects is where it counts. Only recently has the NFL forced players to sit for concussions and I commend them for it. But if the MLS and Beckham want to pretend nothing happend well...

    I'll take Daniel Tosh's stance on this, "...I could care less if you die at 40, you hate life after sports anyway..."

    I seem to remember a total ownage in the beginning of the season, RSL winning 4-1 led by, of all ppl, Paulo Jr. In fact I remember trying to interview ol' Becks and he was too embarrassed to be interviewed.

    Thats all I remember. GO RSL!

    I was in the second row that game, I remember yelling at GB something like:

    "Hey Beckham? How much did they pay you to come here and lose?"

    The crowd around me laughed and he flinched, at least in my mind. Good times. Keep in mind I was very intoxicated and it might have been something else entirely. :)

    Now that LA will have Landycakes and a competent striker I doubt we'll be as dominating as that game.
    Still, one can hope.

    That's some big talk from someone with such a tentative grip of the English language.

    Can't wait for tomorrow; I do hope we can dispatch LA and once again show them that no matter how much money they spend they still can't buy a cup. But this is going to be a battle to the end from both sides, not question about that.

    Just in case it all does not work out like you want it to, would you consider selling me your tickets for the final.

    I come in peace!!!

    Unlike the crazy LA fans posting in here, just wanted to say, "here's to a good game" on Sunday. The Guardian UK is actually deigning to do minute by minute reports of our playoffs Sunday, and that's tremendous. I hope we show them, fans and ESPN a great game. Which I suspect it will be based on that infographic.

    In fact, based on that infographic I worry a bit about having to go to PKs. Tons of baggage there for LA (and a certain LD).

    Anyhoo, THIS GAME is essentially the MLS Cup imo, regardless of what happens on 11/20 (poor SKC and Houston - basically the critic world is like, "there's a game in the East? Sna????).

    I encourage you to read the LA thread, because unlike some of the wackjobs in here, there are level headed folks in there talking about a great game that is anything but "decided."

    See you Sunday.

    See? Being an LA fan doesn't require you to be a total dick. (I'm talking to you esco)

    Wackjob? Is it just me or did he call everyone on the RSL board a wackjob? Maybe I misunderstood.

    Yeah I think you misunderstood. What he means is that the LA fans who have come onto this board to talk smack are wackjobs, but if you go to their regular board you will find some actually thoughtful commenters.

    We've been deleting the more outlandish wackjob comments, so you won't see them. :)

    That being said, would he really be too far off if he had meant we were all a bit wacky? :eek:

    7-7-6 only because of an amazing "assist" by the Rice-Eccles Turf Monster back in the day, when Pete Vagenas somehow flubbed an open goal.

    Really? Think we cannot handle the crap being said by Galaxy fans?
    Personally I want to see what these (we will buy a cup) idiots want to say.

    When someone earns multiple infractions, it is practice to move the posts to the Recycle Bin, or delete them. He was at that level.

    Banter is great; insults and trolling are not. Big difference.
