    And I just turned on the other eastern conference match and RBNY is already up by 2 goals in Chicago. If the result holds, the winner of Atlanta vs. Columbus will play Toronto (EDIT) NYCFC in the next round.

    I think it would be TFC v RBNY actually.

    Well that explains "Austin FC" and "Austin Athletic" then!

    Always a favorite, Stu. Is there any former player US or otherwise apart from Twellman that has not spoken out against the move? I mean, if they have made a public statement, that is.

    4 nil to MetroBulls. Stadium empty. Chicago definitely bottom percentile.

    Yep, my mistake. I'll update the first post in the thread. Now we know the Crew or Atlanta is facing NYCFC.

    Vancouver route San Jose 5-0.

    Holden was great on the proposed move and JP Dellacamera echoed Stu.

    All 0-0 games are not created equally.

    Great to see the support in Vancouver & Bridgeview for us. Up to us now.

    FWIW, it would be wonderful if we defeat all of Garber's pets: Atlanta, NYCFC, TFC, and Seattle/Por. Houston would also be symbolic.

    I'll not be shocked if NYRB beats TFC, frankly.

    Me either. I wasn't necessarily picking TFC or Sea\Por. Just thinking that we could meet one of MLS' darlings in every round.

    The #SaveTheCrew banner in the corner showed in the SJ match was still there and on display last night against Seattle.

    That's really great--but I doubt the league cares much. We're just walking ATMs to those guys.

    Is it just me or are Bradley and Altidore invisible in the 2nd half? (May have been so in the first half too but I wasn’t watching.)

    Portland have lost three players to injury due to Houston's embarrassing surface. Mabiala, Chara, and Nagbe all out.

    I flipped on the game and noticed Houston fans do the ******** chant. Think the league will acknowledge it?

    They are used to turf. People with plastic turf should not throw stones because there are no stones in the rubber pellets.
