MLS N&A Gold Cup Omnibus Thread (Multiple R)

In before Canada somehow manages to lose to a non-FIFA nation.

 

Well, at least it's a break from the misery of MLS.

 

Worst ********ing thread in the horrible history of this horrible board.

 

Let's see if FG actually does something stupid and plays Malouda and forfeit the match

Who says I didn't see this coming? You guys bellyache for the toast thread every year, and that bellyaching has never influenced my decision about when to start the thread. Now, if the LA Galaxy (Save Curt!) were on the brink of toastification, then I'd certainly start the thread because ripping on that team would be worth my while. But making you people happy? Nope. Not worth ti.

 

I was thinking about starting the toast thread just before the next MLS games on July 19.

Was.

 

We have a SERIOUS cross-posting issue here!

 

Quoted for emphasis.

 

Yes, copy and paste is truly amazing.

That's a lie. You don't even remotely feel bad.

 

At least DC United won't lose this weekend.

 

French Guiana has a smaller population than the Upper West-Side in New York. Canada is doomed.

 

Just wait.

//who the ******** am I threatening?

 

Each captain appealing to the 50 people in the stadium not to discriminate. French national anthem playing, none of the players singing.

 

Oh Canada!

 

FS2 has quite the bass line this evening. Appealing to a different demographic than my house.

 

That was a weak ass, basic take on that free kick just to get it past the wall.

 

"Adventures in goalkeeping here..."

 

Good evening, gentlemen.
Observations: 1) Judging from the uniforms, the sooner Canada realizes it's playing French Guiana and NOT Brazil, the better for the Maple Leafs. 2) The crowd is rivaling that of a typical Red Bulls home game?

 

Not even a RB II game.

 

I know...I was trying to be coy!

 

Last I saw, Red Bull II was averaging 565 for their home attendance.

 

Is it Sunday? I feel like taking a Sunday MLS Nap.

 

No stupidity in game 1 apparently
