    Here we go again: third game in eight days. But what is this feeling . . . hope?

    Prelude to unmitigated despair. I predict a draw.

    Um, didn't RSL play Houston on Wednesday, 30 May? How can RSL play both Seattle and Houston at the same time? Don't you mean 2 June?

    Really, given the relative form of the teams and the fact we're playing at home, this must be a win for us.

    9 points in three matches would be pretty strong.

    We will be in attendance tonight. My first in quite a while. Our seats are in the upper deck, will the sun be in our eyes?

    Marcelo Silva saved our bacon on that ill-advised Kreilach back pass.

    Savarino is a real weak link. He’s where attacks go to die.

    Yeah, Savarino's completed more passes to Sounders than Royals. His D has been suspect too.

    Wouldn't be shocked to see Bofo as a half time sub.

    Overall, RSL playing well. Just can't quite find the right final pass or shot on goal. 3 points is in our grasp.

    This is set up to be an interesting second half. It's been pretty open on both sides really but RSL does seem to be on the front foot a bit more.

    Corey Baird. As one of my oldest friends says about many sports, you can go with pinpoint accuracy or you can go with power. Pinpoint accuracy for the win on that headed goal.

    Whether it's for an another attacker or a defender, I think Savarino needs to come off for the last ten and stoppage.

    Savarino looks tired.

    Sunny has just impressed the heck out of me the last two games. He was fine away at Seattle but those near-turnovers were problematic, but the Houston game and today have been terrific.

    These last 10 minutes from Sunny have been outstanding.

    3 game winning streak!!!

    Silva bent it in just to add to the craziness.

    Also someone needs to turn that kid into a meme from the 2nd goal celebration

    How many times have we seen open nets stay empty? I fully expected us to blow it. Woo Hoo!

    And 3 in a row! I think happy is what I'm supposed to feel. These strangely familiar feelings that I had years ago... do I dare believe?

    No. Hope is the breeding ground of horrible disappointment.

    Wow. That was another good game but against a lesser team at the moment.

    It almost looks like they’re figuring things out. Weird.

    I’m also enjoying eating lots of crow. Two players I’ve been very down on have really come into their own. Sunny and Bofo.

    I like it, I really like it.

    Knock on wood but I haven’t seen a terrible tackle fro Sunny in forever. Knock on wood. Knock on wood.

    Seattle certainly didn’t punish RSL when they had the chance.

    Interested in seeing how they play against better teams moving forward. I’m kinda getting a little excited. EMBRATSU.
