Is tonight's game in this thread or the next one? And why isn't it on the Direct TV Direct Kick package? Thx, Jay!
3-0. Game just showed up on 471. Definitely wasn't listed earlier. We watched something on the DVR and it wasn't there. It was when we stopped.
D.C. United is signing another goalkeeper. Here's why ... https://t.co/xPGqus6HmD #dcu #mls— Steven Goff (@SoccerInsider) August 17, 2017 Save you a click: Hamid might not be back.
The Fire seemed to have taken themselves out of the supporters shield race, lucky for them the trophy involving a spoon which is made of wood is also out of reach.
Samuel Piette has been outstanding for Montreal in the 2 games he's been there. I didn't see that coming.
Man, we're slow on this one. Almost like more important things are happening out in the world. ANYWAY All times CT, because it's the best time zone in the country for sports: Wednesday, August 16 Montreal 3 - 0 Chicago Friday, August 18 Portland - New York, 9 PM, FS1 Saturday, August 19 Montreal - Salt Lake, 6:30 PM Orlando - Columbus, 6:30 PM Chicago - Toronto, 7 PM Kansas City - Dallas, 7:30 PM Colorado - D.C.

Someone in this thread last year (@onefineesq, maybe?) described Felipe as having "all of the confidence of a great Brazilian, but none of the talent." Sometimes people get things right, and sometimes people get things right: Fake it until you make it!

I'd like you all to know that I have a referee break down ready to post on my home PC, but since you fools couldn't get the thread up before I left for work, you didn't get any info for tonight's match. This is all your faults, and I hope you're all very happy with yourselves. Anyway, I'll be home soon, and I will get that posted promptly.
Lampson is an OK shot stopper, but his decision making is sub par to say the least. Penalties given up, awful tackles outside the area (including one uncalled that should have seen him sent off). He's a liability. I miss Sean Johnson so, so much.

I guess next time I can throw it in the previous week's thread and give the mods more to do [emoji848]
Anyone know if there has been a MLS match date changed because of a cosmic event? I am assuming that is why the New York RB and Portland Timbers match moved from Sunday evening/afternoon to Friday. Reports say upwards to 1 million people (in a state of 4 million) are going to flood Oregon roads next Monday.
If RBNY beats Portland on Friday night they should drug test the entire organization. No way could any clean team could win three games, including one that went into OT, in 6 days.
Wondering why I have to subscribe to a thread I nominally started... Nahh, not really. How F'd am I trying to go from Denver to Casper? @JasonMa Thx, Jay!
