MLS Week 21 Continuous PBP Thread [Multiple R]

So Vancouver really is Coming to America then?

How will Chivas USA disappoint me this week?

Hands, touching hands, reaching out. Touching me, touching you.

With the week DeMerit has had (redeye to ASG, full 90 at ASG, still on tarmac in NY as of late afternoon Thursday), he's going to all Come sleep with me And stay til tomorrow

Tonight's match is big for both sides - really big for RSL as they're running out of home match opportunities to score points.

I hate you all for planting those songs in my head....

By only scoring 4 goals against Portland instead of 5?

Toronto, Montreal, FCD, Colorado and Portland all with basically must win games at home to keep their various respective minimal (or even less) chances alive of getting into the playoffs. Colorado and Montreal with better chances than the rest, but they have to start getting points, especially at home. (Colorado even more particularly has to stop their 5 game losing streak.)

I'm afraid I might have to make a terrible pun about Cowgirls in the Sandy, to at least get us talking about the better Neil.

Both Beckerman and Demerit in the starting lineups tonight - who needs rest?

Vancouver: Cannon, Lee, Demerit, Bonjour, Rochat, Koffie, Davidson, Robson, Richards, Mattocks, Camillo

RSL: Rimando, Mansally, Borchers, Watson-Siriboe, Beltran, Beckerman, Johnson, Gil, Morales, Espindola, Saborio

Four hundred miles from home, sitting outside on a farm frustrated because an earlier storm knocked the power out, you nearly brought a tear to my eyes.

It's hot as ******** down here. I almost want air conditioning as much as I want electricity to charge my computer. Almost.

You also didn't think Beckerman (or Demerit) would play in the ASG

It's a tough call for Kreis - against the team directly behind them in the standings they certainly want to get the win and put some space between them. But this could be RSL's last chance at winning the CCL before they have to do some rebuilding of the team in the next 18 months.

...and I just found out I'm at the only home within at least 5 miles without power.

Where is everyone?

Kind of a slow match so far, both teams have had half chances but not much more.

Mansally shows why Kreis started him, to run with Richards. Nice defensive play

Don't know what Dunseth is talking about questioning if Camillo was onside on that last play. He was onside by about 5 yards, with all 4 defenders behind him, it wasn't even close.

Not surprisingly, looks like Vancouver is playing very defensively. On that last play Richards and Mattocks were the only two Whitecaps in the offensive third, wasting a nice cross by Richards.

If even I'm watching this and El Salvador-AS Roma and I don't have power, everyone should have to watch this. No excuses.

So how long will your battery last on your computer?
