Long shot here, but if anyone wants to join a fellow RSL fan in NYC, I'll be hitting up Floyd in Brooklyn to watch tonight's game. http://floydny.com/
I'm guessing you are already in Brooklyn and not looking to go far given post-Sandy clean up but if you can make it to Nevada Smiths (not far from Union Square) it's a great place to watch a game. I watched the first leg of the CCL final there and met Ismitje who was traveling and a few other RSL fans showed up too. I'll be looking for a internet stream this morning in Bangkok. I caught one playoff game before headed to Asia for 25 days so I won't have good coverage now for anything but the final. If I get my way and RSL makes it to the conference final I'll be depending on my VPN and the internet structure of Kazakhstan to watch the game. Yikes! I've got a big pit in my stomach for this game and just hope we don't leave with a big hole to dig out of at home. I dare not dream of a first leg victory (but crossing my fingers anyway).
Normally I'd trek up to Nevada Smith's, but there's no subway service from Brooklyn to Manhattan and Nevada won't be open for tonight's game. They barely got power back on (about an hour ago), and need some time to set up. Starting tomorrow they'll be back up with their normal lineup of EPL games. As for the game itself, if we don't get a goal in the first 30 minutes this one ends 0-0.
Game time is near! The starting line-up for RSL: Rimando, Beltran, Watson-Siriboe, Borchers, Wingert, Beckerman, Grabavoy, Johnson, Morales, Saborio, and Espindola.
Really have to wonder why Valazquez is not in the 18. Injury? Aditude? What? He was the one player against Vancouver who came in a made a offensive difference.
how shitty is this? the NBCSP broadcast is blacked out for me, so i have to watch the mother********ing slimers broadcast. god DAMMIT. i'm seriously thinking of just watching a stream or just muting my tv and putting on the radio stream over the internet. don't think i can stand listen to these douche bag homers, ross fletcher and kasey keller, for 2 hours.
Pretty sad to still be seeing football markings during a MLS play-off match. And Seattle is the home of American soccer?
only one group of people think shittle is the home of american soccer, and they don't stray far from the most upper northwest corner of this country.
nice tackle douche bag. i know there are football markings on the field but you don't have to ********ing play soccer like it.
god rosales LOVES to go to ground easily. fart in his general direction and he's a flopping around on the field. and that's a foul on johnson? uhhhh, how? montero just throws his leg in the way and cuts Will off, then goes to ground and gets the whistle.
