    Agreed. Finding those condensed matches was very easy when I had MLS Live.


    On the bright side of life, this thread’s title makes me so happy.

    Ok, SQUAD ROTATION Mid-week game Fun TIMES!!!!

    Steffen (goalies don't get tired!)
    Williams - Sauro - Abubakar
    Hansen - Argudo - Trapp - Sosa - Santos/Meram
    JJ - Mullins

    3-5-2 with Trapp the base of the center mid triangle with Argudo and Sosa ahead.

    Can it be worse than getting rolled by Portland with our A-team?

    I hate to double reply but I was reminded of something my bride has repeated many time over the years:

    When kids hit their teens, girls become snotty and boys become stupid and it's tough to pick which is harder to live with

    I'm just curious: why does Tuesday have anything to do with that?

    Ben Olsen was also the youngest MLS coach to win 100. Anyway, I hope you all die of syphilis. <unsubscribes>

    We don't sleep with DC fans, so the likelihood of syphilitic death is reduced significantly. Every city has its scabrous whores, the DC area is teeming.

    This is a tough one to call.

    D.C. is first and we just lost to the second worst team in the league. So clearly I cannot chose the wine in front of you.

    However, DC and the Crew have similar PPG. At which point you would typically take the home team in MLS. So, clearly, I cannot chose the wine in front of me.

    Wait till I get going, where was I?
    Oh yeah... But, (just to completely mix references) as Lee Corso would say, not so fast; DC is undefeated away. So I can clearly not chose the wine in front of me.

    Luckily, it's obvious, I choose... What in the world is that?!

    To be fair, he did not say he likes them any better on Wednesday or Thursday.

    I dont like Brussels sprouts on Manday does not mean that I find them delightful on Tuesday

    MLS App > scores > highlights button in midst of each score section > select from highlights or condensed match

    Strangely, I can't seem to find this anywhere within their website or with a google search. So, it is app only as best I can tell.

    Highly unrecommened. But, it serves a purpose such as this from time to time.

    @zman31 Super annoying, but condensed matches are only on the MLS app for iPhone and Android, they're not on the website at all anymore :(

    If you have an Amazon Fire Stick, download the MLS app there. It updates with all standard 4 minute highlights, and also puts condensed matches on there (though not for every match, it's kinda random). It's nice to have on TV that way, though you can also Chromecast and I'd imagine Air Play with iPhone (I don't have Apple TV, so can't confirm).

    To try and avoid spoilers, you can:

    1) Turn off score notifications
    2) Also just scroll down to the very bottom of the LATEST tab (i.e., news)
    3) Or go to the MORE tab > Series and Columnists > Condensed Matches

    They want the money from the commercials in the full match--even though you'll skip by them.

    This is the one time that, God forgive me, I miss A*merNorthendDiva.

    Her many faults aside, and we have not the time, she hated DC with a virulent level of loathing that bordered on psychosis.

    And she had a particular hatred of Ben Olsen. Shed sit there and literally ride his ass the whole game and, frankly, some of it would have brought a Ghandhi or Mandela hopping the railing to punch her.

    How delightful.

    I may be mistaken but I think she was the one who originated "Baby Ben". If not, she was a very early adapter.

    At least a couple of times, Olsen got so angry that he started yelling back at her, which is of course about as good as it gets.

    My prediction: Columbus will find their mojo tonight. Santos will play a role in 2 goals. Also, we'll have a set piece goal, to win 3-1.

    I'll be attending with my Beat Oracle podcast co-host who is visiting Columbus for work from LA. We both lived in Columbus from 07-11 and also hosted a weekly DJ residency at the now defunct Hal & Al's. (I started working on the show back in the 99-00 year at OU, where met a couple years later). I'm without kids and staying the night, so I might be in rare form.
