    After US out of World Cup, feels like this season should not have any more games.

    Villa would be worth seeing. Revs to play spoiler as they fight for their jobs.

    Villa playing is the only reason to go to this game. That being said the Jekyll and Hyde revs will once again win at home, 2 1.

    Kamara is one selfish prick when he gets the ball and we were not better since he came on. We could have had 3 or 4 if he would have laid it off rather than shoot every time he touched the ball. I would not run for him after about the second time. The worst was when we were 3 on 1 and he tried to chip the goalie rather than lay it off

    Beyond that, we looked pretty good. My only concern is that there are 3 or 4 players on this team that scare the Hell out of me when they're on. Yellow or maybe red cards waiting to happen. Watching tonight, they still havent learned anything and thats too bad. They have to stop hacking or go away

    Kamara may have djins... If the right thing can be done, he does otherwise... Not on the 2018 roster, if rational minds are in gear... Sierra Leone national team may need him.

    Remember that time Diego Fagundez scored two goals in his final home game with the Revs?

    Yes, I do, very distinctly. And since then it has been my concern that the development of his formerly nsturslly developing talents have been delayed / squandered by his "elevation" to the full time roster.

    I was talking about today quite possibly being his last home game with the Revs. Diego's going to have suitors this winter.

    Think so? 6 goals this season won't blow anyone away with the gap running from June to October. Although I will acknowledge he does a lot that doesn't get on the scoresheet. Being a new dad, he may not want to pick up and move abroad (if that's what you meant). Within MLS, sure.

    After watching all the soft reds cards the Revs have received and last night's soft NYC red card. I watched the first half of Seattle v. Dallas. A Dallas player went into a two footed studs up tackle and crunched the Seattle player. The basic definition of a red card; he got a yellow card. Must be the laws of the game are different on the right side of the Mississippi.

    I suspect someone's spotted his quality and thinks he's got untapped upside. Also, at age 22 it's time for him to venture overseas if he's ever going to do it. A new kid actually might light a fire under him to make the move.

    It also might inspire him to stay put, where he has a familiar environment and family support structure.

    Can you imagine moving to a foreign country with a newborn baby?

    I tried really hard to get an overseas job when my kids were newborns. Couldn't quite land the right gig.

    Can’t say that’s unreasonable. It looked like a yellow card at most, and really should have been reviewed during the game. MLS needs to seriously refine its VAR rules, because they’re completely inconsistently applied.

    Forgot to mention, I brought a Spanish guy to the game. It was his first MLS contest. We stood in the Fort and in the second half he asked me why all the people along the length of the field barely seemed to be paying attention.

    Back around the turn of the century, I worked for an Israeli dot-com start-up. I brought the (27 year old) CEO and another guy to a game in the Fort once and they were fascinated. The atmosphere was nothing like the Israeli league, which makes Serie A look like a cub scout meeting. The two things I remember most were that they were amused we had a player named Imad Baba, and that he talked like a guy from Texas, not the Wesxt Bank. And that the crowd was so family-orented and "safe," with lots of women and kids.

    We also had a meeting with Jonathan Kraft and tried to get them to invest in our company, but he declined. I don't blame him, since the company ended up on the skids, but with all the stock options I had, I could have easily bankrolled the Revs new stadium if that stock had even reached $5!

    Gee, where I sit everyone's paying attention. They may not be standing and chanting non-stop, but they're paying attention.
    And that includes the trio of chatty preteen girls sitting behind me.
