    A 3-0 win at home to make it to MLS Cup. No problem.

    Well, his consistency was for crap, and the foul call on which they scored was garbage...so at least one of the goals we can lay on him.

    As soon as DeLeon scored we went into a defensive shell and tried to lose.

    The first goal we were caught napping. Something Houston did at least twice prior.

    The other two were from lack of a possession game.

    Where was Pontius? Did he get injuried and pulled off?

    yes, really early in the game. Pontius got subbed out in like the 12th minute.

    It may have been Olsen accounting for the lack of depth due to injuries. It was well enough to get a lead on the road and he was willing to run with it. Houston's a tough place to get a result.

    Dude, we used up all 3 subs in the first hour--two in the first half. Both of our outside backs couldn't play.
