What: DC United at the Chicago Fire When: 8:30 PM ET Wednesday Jun 24, 2015 TV: CSN Washington Internet: live.mlssoccer.com (if not locally blacked out) Preview: http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2015/06/22/chicago-fire-vs-dc-united-mls-match-preview Required animal: The water bear. Why? 'cause it's the toughest sum of a beach on the planet. It can survive being frozen, burned, boiled and can live in space. Not too shabby; so it might make it a week at Toyota Park.
Taking a day off and driving 6 hours to attend this game. I swear if I see Doyle in the starting lineup I'm getting back in my car and driving back home before kickoff.
Except it seems like tardigrades don't fight, they just kinda curl up, dehydrate, and say, "what ya got?" Sorta like Mondragon. We're sending out the B team. What you don't realize is that "B" stands for Ben.
I anticipate a hard-fought battle. Not between the two teams, but between me and the television. I expect to be yelling at it and United for being disjointed and not completing passes during the first half and squandering opportunities. We may or may not go into halftime a goal down, but I think it will somehow stay 0-0. I will be slightly happier in the second half as we eek out some points after Benny performs his ritual half-time reaming/motivational speech. Artist's rendering of second half: [cool, hysterical image removed by jackbooted mod with poster's permission. If you're seeing this now and missed it, you should really just rep it, cause it was awesome. But you know, we have standards. Instead you can enjoy the following image provided by your mod]
Bugs Bunny = Connor Doyle Pitching: Bugs Bunny. Left field: Bugs Bunny. Right field: Bugs Bunny. Third base: Bugs Bunny. Center field: Bugs Bunny. First base: Bugs Bunny. Shortstop: Bugs Bunny. Second base: Bugs Bunny.
Hopefully. Remember, he played Sunday and is at risk for turning into dust if he steps foot on the field midweek.
blah blah crush them blah blah lamentations of their...well...whatever gets paired with Fire players.
300 Chicagoans died on the night of the Great Chicago Fire. So anything less than 350 on Wednesday will be a letdown.
"Olsen gets tossed by the Joker in the Middle, Ashton leads us from 3 points to 1." I don't know what this means. I'm vaguely worried it involves Chad Ashton and sex dungeon.

For the actual outcomes of the poll, I try to do a Win, Lose, Tie options followed by some silly ones.
I would pay to have a live feed during a game that only transmitted Ben's comments/complaints during the match from the technical area. Fox put mics in the cups at the U.S. Open, I'm sure they'll figure something out. I think I cried all the way through it; most beautiful, passionate and truthful words ever spoken from that club.
per article: "That will likely continue as it embarks on a road swing that Olsen likened to a “rock tour” last week." It's not a road trip, it's a rock tour.
