View Full Version : LA @ Chicagoon Pre/Post match discussion (R)
3 points from this one are a must before we head into the showdown with the Smurfs.
I believe Danny is suspended due to Yellows for this one. Can anyone confirm?

Yes he is suspended, as per galaxy enews:
§ Danny Califf will serve a mandatory one-game suspension on Saturday vs. Chicago, due to caution point accumulation. Currently, Califf has 22 caution points.
We should hopefully win again, maybe another 3 goal romp?

Usually the games with our Official Bitches are close.
I'd say 2-1 with goals from Cobi and Fish.
GO GALAXY!!!

Most important for the Dudes: don't get hurt on that tragic playing surface. The team needs every healthy body available for the home and home against the Flakes.
Go Dudes!

Ruiz - " so you see murray... my agent said next season i should be playing with Zidane or Beckham. "
Cien : " he did?..."
Ruiz : " Yeah.. i'm looking to get a phat contract, i should be up front with Van Nistle..whatever, or me and Ronaldo should partner up. "
Cien : " You think you're going to start if they pick you up ? "
Ruiz : " Of course.. i am dominating here, i am a ture goal scorer!!.. you seen me !!, Right. I just wouldn't want to be Ronaldo or Van Nistlewhatever.. cuz i'm gonna steal that spotlight."
Cien : " Are you kidding... this is Europe your talking about!! "
Ruiz : " I know Brah ..... but check this out, i will get you that MLS Cup you been playing for 7 years for, and then that back to back Us Open Cup thing whatever that is. then get top goal scorer, and onto the MVP of the league. 2 days later on a plane to spain or england. "
Cien " you think "YOU" can do all that "
Ruiz : " Mann.. chivato, Are you kidding?, did you see my shirt, i dont forget where i come from, which means when i am top goal-scorer in spain or england, check this out-- i'm gonna put your picture and cobi's picture on either side of me holding the MLS MVP Trophy on my shirt.. and it will say " Never forget where you come from "
Cien : " what about Danny Califf's picture ? "
Ruiz : " Hell no... He sux!!! "

You notice the sweaty palms, nervous tics and general shortness of breath on the part of Quakes fans? Panic is setting in. They are so desparate (and so dumb) that they are posting encouragement to the Fire on the LAG board (I'm sure that's where the Fire looks for inspiration). If nothing else, a willingness to root for the Fire demonstrates how low the Josers are willing to go. Have they no shame? (That is a rhetorical question.)

Keep talking your smack guys. Nowak is back for us and we desperately need a win. Make sure you tune in to see a Fire victory in front of a sold out house.

san jose result a bit lower....
san jose wins 4-3
which means we are again tied for points, and san jose has a +3 goal differential on us (45-33sj vs 42-33la)
we need a win and a draw. playing for i don't think we can edge them on goal difference.

I'm stunned we pulled that out, we really do own chicago.
Kovalenko is a frickin joke. I didn't even get to see his Landon Donovan style flop happen real time (well tape delayed live), because I couldn't find a bottle of goddamn molasses at Ralphs.
I think the reason we won and San Jose won is to make these next two weekends the biggest in MLS season games in a long time for us (am I missing a bigger pair of games?).
Any word on whats going to happen with disciplinary points, did anyone go over the edge? They mentioned Ezra being on the verge after his first yellow, so assuming he went over on the 2nd, does his sitting out for the red card count as the over the point limit card? or will he be out the next 2 games?

Great game by hartman and the post. Ruiz does it again!!!!!!! By the way did you see him dedicate the 2nd goal to the 9-11 victims, this guy is class to the end.

so here's a really interesting thought...
the tie break scenario is
teams head-to-head
goal difference
total goals
away record
home record
discplinary record
coin toss
if we win one game 4-0 and san jose wins 1-0, we're tied on points, head-to-head, goal difference and total goals. la currently has the edge in away games... man i was kinda hoping we would go all the way down to a coin toss.
still i'm putting money on a decision by goal difference...

No, in that case LA would be +12 and SJ would be +9. Each goal adds one to the scoring team's GD and subtracts one from the other teams's GD. If both teams win one game, LA needs to outscore the Quakes by two over the two games.
