    Missed the last round. What a goof.

    Richmond 1-0 Chicago

    I guess I will need an upset special.

    Sorry folks for not getting back on line for over a month. Have been away for all that time and got back had the earthquake and now the hurricane. I am back and am looking forward to the games this Tuesday. Interesting matches ... who does not want to see the underdog Richmond Kickers continue their run and in the other two teams playing well in CCL and MLS Supporters Shield race.

    I will go with my heart and pick Richmond over Chicago ... I suspect that Chicago will send out there first team (ChiFire are in the running for a play-off spot but heck why not try for a fifth USOC title) and Richmond just had a tough go of it in Orlando and I hope will want to take the sting out in Bridgeview.

    Richmond 1 - 0 Chicago
    Seattle 2 -1 FC Dallas

    Welcome back diamonotron ... I see I forgot to make my selections

    Richmond 2 - 0 Chicago
    Seattle 3 - 1 FC Dallas

    Why, I would like to see Richmond go to the final and I think that FCD had a tougher go this past week with the CCL (game and a half), then the game in KC, now up to Seattle. However a team like Dallas should be OK especially getting John back ... but Seattle just looks like a team to get an early lead and strike again on a stretched Dallas D.

    Folks I noticed that the final winner selection should have been 64 points not 32. I am going to make that change so that any repeat player could win Buz (needs the score bonus points) and revolutionaryguy can make a pick and get some points.

    Get your picks in for the Final by 6pm on October 4th.

    Going for second place ... Seattle 3 - 1 Chicago ... I really like Seattle big in this one but it is a title game so the Fire will play tough.
