Celebrate the small things:

This was the first time this season San Jose hadn't won after scoring the first goal. The Earthquakes are now 8-0-1 after leading at halftime.
[...]
San Jose (10-3-7) has lost only once since June 7 and had a four-game winning streak snapped.


This is noteworthy. We stalemated the top team in the league!

Yes we did!

And if we used that as an excuse to lose, then the fans on this list would be all over them like proverbial stink on ... you know.

We drew the top team in MLS. Period! No excuses. They didn't get to the top by playing when it was convenient for them.

You're right, Chip.

The Revs second half on Saturday was right up there with any fantastic finish I've ever witnessed on any level - especially after the Revs were spectators for a half.
