    Gaitan hits the crossbar directly off the corner kick. And then Frankowski hits the post. So close to 4-0.

    I had a free ride over there and a blunt that i didn't want to smoke all by myself and yet chose to stay home and pretend it's not happening. Is section 8 doing a full 90 of hey hey hey goodbye? Is sektor in section 8 celebrating? Damn it's like someone told me that trump just did a houdini overnight.

    The English (SAP) broadcasters are way better than:
    1) the other SAP announcers
    2) Danhole Kelly and "Frankie"

    I wonder if part of the new regime will be replacing Klopas and Kelly? Or at least Kelly. I would literally rather listen to the game in Korean

    Yes, it must be the case.

    Danhole Kelly was the absolute reflection of Andrew Hauptman.
    He must go.

    Not quite, at least so far. "Something stupid" happened, 4-0 Fire.

    It is possible that F_C_ Dallas could come back to tie, which would be "something stupid" happening...again.

    Scored four goals and
    FOUR shots off the post!
    Two, 10 seconds apart in the 64th minute.
    Insane.

    One thing has been firmly established. . . Dallas sucks in every way.

    That's one thing I don't think you'll get. I think Kelly's sticking around unless someone else offers him a better gig, probably involving hockey.

    Was on the concourse for the first goal (was helping fix banners) and in the capo stand for the last two. Kept seeing the ball go in, but didn't really see how it got there. Didn't matter, this game didn't really matter. It's just a party and I'm happy that the players are getting in on it too. Mansueto's getting his honeymoon period until the end of the season and we're gonna party until then.

    If you couldn't make it to this game, make sure to come out for the last game of the season!

    Nice start to the Mansueto era although I could have gone home at halftime.

    Eerily similar to the Hauptman era but for delightfully opposite reasons!

    The other side of the stadium was more sparsely filled, on account of the sun.

    This picture was taken at the 81st minute. There were a lot of empty seats, on both sides, for such a beautiful Saturday afternoon. And everything in the stores was fifty percent off.

    I am sad to see the Stadium go. It looked nice today. A lot has changed in the year we have been gone. The trees in front are filling in nicely, and the landscaping looks great. There is now a Hampton Inn hotel on the site (!), and two gas stations on the east side of the parking lot.

    Section 8, what is left of it, cheers on, but it is a shadow of its former self. Sector Latino is now behind the opposite goal, you could really hear them. Their old corner section is covered by something, I guess to keep people from sitting there?

    My grandson used to love the ball toss at the beginning of the game. That is apparently gone. They did chuck a few T-Shirts at the half. Half time, well that was a kids team game of some sort, nothing like the crazy "entertainment" of old. I hear they did not even have a "meet the team" for the STH.

    It is like the heart has been sucked out of the place. Sad, sad.

    And I want to know what they are going to do with my memorial brick in front, when they move out. :(
