    Well the Curse of Caricola struck again last night against the Revs... and Chicago beat KC 2-0 thanks to Blanco...so the Bulls next game will have playoff implications...45 points pretty much guarantees a playoff spot IMHO...The Bulls currently have 33 points with 8 games (4H/4A) remaining...so the BUlls really need to win 4 of the remaining games... I have a feeling there will be at least 20K for Blanco and Wanchope's debut...plus the weather so far for next Saturday looks perfect again...here is the forecast Saturday-9/1 = Abundant sunshine. Highs in the upper 70s and lows in the low 60s.

    The weather being nice next weekend might be a negative seeing as how it's the last holiday weekend of the summer. Just as well that people stay away since it looks like RBNY is going to run into a buzzsaw of a Fire team. Not that Chicago is anything great but RBNY looks done for the season. They have to play like hell to beat a crappy team at home and go through the motions on the road. The only shread of hope that I am currently hanging onto is that this team always seems to manage to somehow someway to step it up the final few games of the regular season.

    Bukie2k... I hold you personally responsible for the return of the Curse of Caricola and the horrible loss vs NE yesterday...should have slashed your tires and prevented you from going to NE!!:D

    Damn! Just learned that I probably won't be able to attend the Chicago match. Means I will get to bring a friend to the final match, though, and that is a good consolation.

    ag, you just got rep simply for having the heart to start the next match thread so soon after last night's fiasco :( .
    I'm still too disillusioned and disgusted to look that far ahead :mad: .

    i'm ever hopeful and bringing 5 friends to the chicago game. i don't care if it IS labor day weekend - i wouldn't miss it for the world. i also hope to go to the reserve game the following morning -- if it actually happens. i still have faith in what i know some of these players are capable of (sorry for the dangling participle). i only hope bruce has faith in the boys we know can get the job done - dema, joe vide, seth stammler, jeff parke, hunter freeman (one bad game and he's out?!), clint, jozy and jpa. we have to hope that dave, jonny, chris, carlos, dane and francis can pull it together before chicago. we need them to be consistent for a full 90 and bring us 3 points!

    So hopefully you will be able to go to RFK come playoff time as I think the Bulls will end up playing DC in the playoffs...Heck I will subsidize your trip to DC ifit happens but no more Bulls road trips to the Razor for you!:)

    We're now exactly where I thought we be this year, so I'm not too disappointed. I'm looking forward to booing Blanco and screaming at the refs. I'll be bringing a crew of about 8 or 10 to the game, and tailgating prior. I figure if we win all the home games, and don't loose all the away games, we'll qualify for playoffs fine.

    And I'd much rather have the team win at home when I'm there. :D

    Stopped by practice briefly today and the reserves had a scrimmage with Seton Hall. I only stayed for the first half (2-0 us at that point) but it was nice seeing the reserves getting some work. Especially since their games seem to keep getting cancelled or postponed. The big thing was seeing Dema running the track. Hopefully that is a good sign towards his recovery, and playing soon, we could really use him!~

    this game may have just gotten that much easier for us to take 3 points in, Mapp is out for sure and anytime he is of the field that team is just that much easier to break down. we are still going to need a primo effort from our backline to stop blanco from getting that one chance on goal that this RBNY team just can never avoid

    I predict an 8-0 victory as usual, but I must note that we seem to be particularly ineffective against teams that clog the midfield. The Fire might be rough.

    RED BULLS INJURY REPORT
    Kovalenko, Quaranta out vs. Chicago

    The Red Bulls injury has dwindled to just two, but its a pair of players who will be out of the lineup for the foreseable future. Dema Kovalenko remains out with facial injuries suffered in a car accident with teammate Sinisa Ubiparipovic and Santino Quaranta has been placed on the season-ending injury reserve with a right toe sprain.

    They are the only two players listed out for the Red Bulls next game Saturday night against the Chicago Fire at Giants Stadium.

    What exactly is wrong with Dema this time? Last time he broke his nose he played on. Is it a groin or leg injury from the MVA?

    he broke his nose in three places in that car accident. He really needs surgery on it, but is trying to put it off till the end of the season. He got fitted for a mask that he would need to wear while playing. I saw him running at practice on Monday, first time he has trained in a couple of weeks. My guess is that either he needs more time to get back into shape, or he was in too much pain. Either way I hope he gets better soon. Today was his birthday :)
