Crew Sheep League Season X Week 6 Answers 55 people sent in answers this week. 1. Name the next Crew player to get their first minutes of the season Viana - 34 Paladini - 10 Barson - 4 Speas - 4 Schoenfeld - 2 Gehrig - 1 2. Will both Oduro and Arrieta start on Saturday? no - 36 yes - 18 Arrieta - 1 (You'd think I could change the Arrieta to a "no", but some people who switched changed that single name to a "yes", so I can't.) 3. who will win the award for 2014 most improved Crew player? Tchani - 24 Trapp - 11 Anor - 11 Meram - 4 Arrieta - 3 Clark - 1 Barson - 1 (How do you like that, Crew fans voting in favor of Tchani!) 4. who had the best shot in Crew history? (not a single specific shot, but overall best shooter) Stern John - 19 McBride - 9 Schelotto - 9 Cunningham - 8 Warzycha - 6 Moffat - 2 Renteria - 1 Higuain - 1 (And not a single vote for Hejduk, O'Rourke, or Oughton.) 5. most frustrating player in Crew history? Rogers - 15 Tchani - 12 Mendoza - 9 Martino - 5 Cunningham - 4 Buddle - 3 Szetela - 2 Sanneh - 1 Duka - 1 Vargas - 1 Arrieta - 1 Burn - 1 (Sanneh is a great choice for this question. May have deserved more than 1 point. Lots of good choices for this question though.) leaders after 5 questions: west ham sandwich - 128 chr1st - 118 SecretWalrus - 118 mmradio13 - 117 stanger - 117 Draghignazzo - 115 timpegoose - 115 CrewV Man - 114 DhamphirLoki - 114 jairadballerina - 112 hardhead - 112 Hamburgler03 - 109 odave - 109 DAK77 - 109 Lucky Day - 107 ZipSix - 104 Aaron d - 104 puttputtfc - 102 Macgruber - 102 LaddM - 101 Crewster - 101 kgilbert78 - 100
6. UEFA Champions League semifinal: Atletico Madrid or Chelsea? Chelsea - 36 Atletico Madrid - 19 (This is actually pretty close for a game between a team that frequently gets picked in this game vs a team that pretty much never gets picked in this game. Some people actually are looking at current results instead of just name brand. I just looked, and even the British betting websites have Atletico as a favorite.) 7. UEFA Champions League semifinal: Bayern Munich or Real Madrid? Bayern Munich - 47 Real Madrid - 8 8. Europa League semifinal: Sevilla or Valencia? Valencia - 34 Sevilla - 21 (The bookies have Sevilla as the favorite here. Of course that said, any team good enough to get to the semifinals of one of these competitions is obviously good enough to win one more game, even if they're playing the likes of Bayern Munich. That's why they play the games, as they say. You'll also be thrilled to hear that they also have the Crew listed as the second biggest favorites of the day in MLS, only behind KC beating Montreal. Also kids: don't gamble.) 9. Europa League semifinal: Benfica or Juventus? Juventus - 49 Benfica - 6 10. CONCACAF Champions League final: Cruz Azul or Toluca? Cruz Azul - 45 Toluca - 10 (Well now this is an interesting result. Leg 1 was played at Cruz Azul and it finished in a 0-0 tie. Leg 2 will be next week at Toluca. You'd think therefore that Toluca should be favored. And yet Cruz Azul still dominated this question. Go figure.) leaders after 10 questions: SecretWalrus - 329 timpregoose - 326 DAK77 - 320 Macgruber - 313 puttputtfc - 313 djtrinidad - 308 foozer - 308 DhamphirLoki - 308 Hamburgler03 - 307 odave - 303 ZipSix - 302 Lucky Day - 301 LaddM - 299 mmradio13 - 298 cam5fc - 296 CrewV Man - 290 KCbus - 290 110toyourleft - 290
