Wiz @ Burn [R]

[Spoon]

With the biggest game of the year about to happen I hope the team comes out with there heads on straight. No repeats of the Metros game please.

[Lucid]

(Why do I even bother asking this?)

So, is there any webcast scheduled?

[Lucid]

Doh! I originally thought this Burn game was this Sat. (Even though I knew the all-star game was this Sat., and I had seen the watch party thread and read it. I guess it's just brainfart time for me. http://216.40.241.68/ups/DeNiro/idiot.gif).

And all night I had been thinking "There's something I'm forgetting tonight, what is it that's on TV that I'm forgetting?" But I think I also have that feeling every Wed. night ever since Temptation Island was on Wed. nights.:D

Too late to drive into KC for the game so looks like I'll sit here and try and find something on TV. I was pretty excited cause Bound is on now, but then I realized it's on cable (meaning and edited version) and who wants to watch an edited version of Bound? Kinda defeates the purpose doesn't it.

Anyways... I'm rambling, screw you all who are watching the game. Die Burn.

FFFFOOOOORRRZAAAA WIZZZARDS!!! Great win, I am sooo happy. We are looking like potential contenders for the title this year after that win. Armstrong is the MAN!

[Hexenmeister]

No cable here.

So was 1-0 the final scoreline?

[Unorthodox Yank]

yep.

we played very well.

shouldve been 2-0 though.

[KC_KID]

Yes, we really dominated much the first half of the game with the best scoring opportunities. Dallas did look quite dangerous a few times though late in the second half.

[Spoon]

Yes it should have been 2-nil. Arnuad should have scored but he went wide left. As I predicited he did more than Brown. :D
None the less great win on the road for the Wiz. Typicall Danger Bob win. Play back and then counter. Well done!

[kcwizklein]

Great game.........keep it up. We will have a very good chance at the MLS Cup

I have a reason to live! yay!

A great win. Very solid throughout the whole team.

Igor, Quill and Armstrong looked dangerous throughout and just as I thought we were going to have to settle for a tie we got a well deserved goal. Quite a few missed chances and great team effort.

Garcia, Burns and Talley never gave them a look at the back. Awesome 3 points.

[PezJunkie]

We definitely should have had one in the first 15 - 20 mins... I'm still trying to figure out how Igor missed that cross from Klein early on.

Arnaud looked pretty decent in his time on the pitch. (Of course he should look good running against guys who have been playing for 60 - 70 minutes.) Made good runs off the ball & I'm sure he's kicking himself over the one v. one w/ Jordan.

Defense looked sloppy at times but was able to step up and get the job done when it counted.

Quill looks better every game... Armstrong continues to be the man. Cisco had a decent first half but disappeared a bit in the 2nd.

Hopefully we can keep up this form and not have any more lapses like the Metrostars game from last week.

[Mikegone]

First win in Dallas since a shootout win on 5/20/98.

First regulation win since 8/2/97.

That's a long time. Tonight was something quite rare.

Probably won't win again in Dallas until 2007.

[Moobythegoldncaf]

I know this is very unimportant, it jumped out to me that the picture of Armstrong mlsnet has up doesn't have the star above the Wizards logo on the jersey.

Oh and on a more important note, this was a great win tonight. We need to keep this momentum going. We've already proved that we can make the Quakes are bitches, and the East has been the West's wipping post all season, so we have a very valid shot in the Cup.

Peace

Got that right. GOD WHAT A CRAPPY GAME WE PLAYED. you don't know how pi$$ed I am. We go from MLS Cup contenders to this season slump. Perfect timing for All Star break. we'll take out our anger on the Crapids in Open Cup so at least maybe we can win that again. Good game though, you guys surprised me, you looked solid.

[Jambon]

I wasn't surprised. I had noticed KC's solid form lately, and with a reinforced roster and Gansler at coach, I have been predicting KC to be a player in the postseason. You seem to be peaking at the right time, but is it too soon? Gansler has been able to get KC past injury/suspension while still playing effectively. We have not, and that was the difference in tonight's game.

[BenC1357]

Great game, great win!

The "core" was at the watch party, but where are the other fans? come on people...

[KC_KID]

Well, I wanted to go tonight but I am, uhh, grounded for certain reasons, so I had to stay home and watch the game by myself. Was it just me or did Armstrong pull one of the sweetest moves to open up space and score the goal?

[rudeboy]

Great game for the most part, another good watch party at Malloy's, small but good solid fan support.

Again, we attack down the middle the first ten minutes, get off lots of quality shots then we fizzle out and start playing the long ball up the wings with no support in the middle. Great goal by Armstrong, Arnoud(sp?) should have scored on his break away at the end and igor missed alot of great chances just wide. All in all we played a solid game. Way to go boys.

Probably should have been more like 4-1. Pretty poor finishing all night by both clubs.
