PBP: Post Hudson Era #5 - Rapids @ Union 5:30 pm MT, Weds., May 29

Mea Culpa, somehow Kate & Co. made it through the show w/o him. Any bets on Champions League final Saturday?

 

You mean the same day we have a home game?

 

A more important question would be will they get the green grass stains out of the black diamond uniforms so they will be back to white by Saturday -- or should real true fans wear green?

 

Starting off like another 30% possession match, and not because we're trying to set up the counterattack.

 

Clean sheet by Clint tonight and slow recovery at his age from an 'injury' and there might be a chance? ;>)

 

Early returns on this game do not suggest a clean sheet

 

Smith tries to gift a chance but Union won't take it

 

Can coach Casey call a timeout and tell the team the weather delay is over?

 

All I can say is thank goodness we have our only defender back.

 

Oh Fudge!!!!

 

And there it is. Keegan goes for a ball and doesn't get it, then a good ball thru sends Santos in

 

Keegan or Blomberg?

 

I ran it back and watched it again. Keegan goes for the ball and misses and Blomberg chases Santos in vain

 

Wynne (shakes head)

 

Nice little counter. Rapids look like they have a goal in them at least. The problem is defense.

 

We all knew you could predict the future @JasonMa

 

Would like the Rapids players (and all players) to quit calling for opponents to get cards. Unprofessional and, believe it or not, the refs aren't interested in the players' input.

 

But today would still not have been a good day to buy stock.

 

Abu whacks him after getting beaten long and only escapes with a yellow because Smith was hustling back to cover

 

Everyone knows I think the fanbase is too hard on Howard this year, but I've got no defense on this one. This is a bad look:

There's Tim Howard in Memphis instead of Chester. He has a hamstring injury, according to MLS' official injury report, and was listed as questionable for #PHIvCOL. https://t.co/FXRNU7VObS

That looked good

 

Think Lewis for Blomberg is a good sub. Hope he can make something happen

 

Sweet!!!!

 

Nice! Good cross, good finish, and we're even!

 

Damn that looked good
