MLS Playoffs 2012: Conference Semifinals PBP [Multiple R]

vomiting toilet. so this game had better be good to lift my spirits.

 

I guess this is the "compromise" Adrian spoke of.

Something tells me no one will notice anything different on Sunday for the NFL game.

 

Shit

 

I think the compromise consists of "Sounders can play at CLink if the Seahawks can have some of the markings done while the weather is dry enough (aka yesterday)".

 

From twitter:

SEA Starting XI: Gspurning; Johansson, Parke, Hurtado, Burch; Rosales (cpt), Alonso, Tiffert, Evans; Montero, Ochoa

#RSL XI: Rimando; Beltran, Watson-Siriboe, Borchers, Wingert; Beckerman (c), Grabavoy, Johnson, Morales; Saborio, Espindola

 

Hate that shit.

 

Looks like no hash-marks, so there's at least that.

And expect Seattleish weather. A wet artificial turf tonight.

 

#firstworldproblems

 

Expect a smaller than usual crowd in Seattle. Upper deck looks completely tarped up - normally the first few rows are occupied: not tonight.

 

Anyone have the actual kickoff time?

 

Simply a guess - 7:15ish

 

rain + turf

ugh

 

Hmm .. I was hoping it might be closer to 7:30.

Anyway, I'm ready enough to watch Seattle bomb out the playoffs ... as usual.

 

Terrible song.

 

NBCSN is using the Sounders broadcast tonight? Does that mean RSL gets to use their announcers for 120 minutes in the return leg?

 

In all fairness Seattle has improved every year in the playoffs (not that it says much):
2009 - no goals, no wins, didn't advance
2010 - one goal, no wins, didn't advance
2011 - two goals, one win, didn't advance

So, if the trend were to continue, this year would see them advance.

 

Now.

 

goals from outside the large white box are worth 2, right?

 

Go Seahawks!

 

Cue the bitching about the Seahawks logo....

 

Dinner's still not ready ... damn.
