Pre-match: DC United vs Timbers of Portland

Excited to be going to this game. Hoping to see Kamara get the start.

 

what does it say that I am not really looking forward to this match

 

Should be a good game. I watched the last 20 minutes of their game with the Wizards, which was all you needed to watch, I saw all 3 goals - KC went up 1-0 in the 83rd, Portland came back and won.
So if/when we're up on them late, we better be able to keep our heads.

For y'all attending, enjoy your little hidden corner by the gym, hopefully you'll get a young co-ed group in there rather than a senior-citizen class The time I went we got junior-college volleyball girls, we won even if United did not.

Hopefully the ThornTimbers are tired and we can take advantage of mistakes and play a solid game in the back (that can be very hard for us). Looking for a big game from Canouse.

DCU - 2
Timber Joey - bored



Psssst, Ben..... please play 2 forwards; thanks.

 

Bennyball or bust.

 

Is this the original Timber Joey or did the Timbers disappear him like the Rapids did the original Rapidman?

 

Good question - just some guy whose wood gets shorter when his team scores - they could replace him every game, would anyone notice?

Can you imagine trying to get a weapon like a chainsaw past gate security downtown?

 

Well played.

 

Timber Jim was the original, but he retired and was replaced by Joey.

 

At least he didn't have a fanatical devotion to the Pope.

Montreal just committed suicide losing at home vs Cincinnati (Cinci did not have a clean sheet since March 24), also they played one more game than us (ando so did Chicago, which has their same points / games played).
Playoffs are basically safe, for what it's worth it.

 

Glad Montreal hired Cabrera to right the ship.

 

I was told we should hire him to replace Ben..............................

 

Just means we are guaranteed another year of mediocrity from Ben.

 

LiveSoccerTV.com shows that the game is on FS1. But the DC United website and TV listings show the game is on ESPN.

( fwiw - LiveSoccerTV also shows that NYRB at 6 pm is also on ESPN, but not on the MLS/NYRB website nor TV listings)


And New England Revs dropped two more points tying Orlando

 

Bingo. That's why I wrote "for what it's worth it"

 

Not sure how 4+4= 9 here???

Doing the bare minimum of getting to the playoffs will be enough to bring Ben Olsen back.

Despite how the team has looked for more than half the season.

 

A good defensive lineup from the back up to the top. I hope Rooney plays hungry. I also hope Kamara can fit in somehow.

I like an ugly win on the road.

 

Kamara not dressed. Hammy.

 

Segura causes a double-doink OG. 1-0 us.
