10-6 over Philly tonight on FSC. They played some EXCELLENT defense in the 2nd half and looked like a completely different team than the last time I saw them play on FSC. Good for the Sharks. Orlando also outshot the Kixx 35-19. They dominated the game and deserved the win.
That's two in front of the home crowd! Congrats Sharks fans. I look forward to seeing the new and improved Sharks this Sunday.
I was at the game and Orlando and they just out played the Kixx. They are getting better with reterans like Bill Sedewick, Gaston Pernia, Jorge Valle, Damien Pottinger & Boney to help the young and talented rookies like Chris Cerroni, JP Rodrigues, Anthony Santiago, Drew Ducker, Eric Vasques, Ainsley Romany & Dion Jagroo. I see them improving each week, and like all team they will have down games but I think they will have a much better second half ( It can't get worst then 0-16 start Lol). Go Sharks!!!
Congrats to the Sharks, helluva exciting game on FSC. They looked like a completely different team tonight; I hope they can build on this.
What do guys think of Doc Holliday's (if that's his real name) announcing. He was cracking me up. He would not let the non-goal go & he was obsessed with the fans who had the vikings helmets on. He was trying so hard to be non-offensive with things that weren't even remotely offensive. He must of had a problem with the politically correct crowd before. He would say things like, "Wow! The crowd is going crazy! And, I don't mean to use the term "crazy" loosely or to offend anyone who has had mental problems." My favorite was when the Sharks were up 8-4 & he said, "Now, the Sharks need to do ONE thing....and that's, play good defense, clear the ball, stay with their man, stay calm...." or something like that. And, he had a man crush on JP Rodriques. If he talked about that guys abs one more time, I was going to hurl. Holliday mentioned that the Sharks crowds have gone from 25 to last night of about 4,000. I think he was off on both accounts, but the crowd did look much better.
The crowd did seem better than expected on TV. That halftime situation between Sham and the Refs was a nice touch of drama, but a bit of bush league. Delaying the game like that, coming out on the field and yelling at the refs, and possibly unintentionally turning off the lights momentarily all because a ref said something to an owner's daughter is a bit bush league. Then again, FSC was not completely confident in what they were reporting happened, so I won't say too much.
He was decent, but too much of a homer for my money - it got a bit annoying. He also talked about that whole ab thing waaaayy too much - he was even saying it in the Sedgewick post game interview!
Maybe he read the outrage on the forum about the play of the bipolar Cougars. Wait, he actually said on "national TV" that the Sharks have drawn 25 people to their prior games?
Holiday is a local radio personality and does the P.A. job for the AFL Orlando Predators. He's quite the character and is well known in Orlando. Good to see the Sharks pull out another win.
Last month when the Sharks were on TV at home, someone mentioned that you could see Chicago's logo under the Sharks logo. That field looks pretty crappy, I hope it's better than Cobo Arena where the Rockers used to play.
I've never heard of that guy Holliday. He was a big improvement over Dax McCarty though. Poor Dax was just out of his depth. All up this game was a big win for MISL. I liked how Doc also told the truth that Sham ran onto the field to berate a ref at halftime. At first they thought missed goal but later it was something the ref shouted at a fan, who was the daughter of Shams minority partner. You can actually see the incident. She is in a purple shirt first row on the camera side and he blows the whistle when a Kixx player goes down, this person stood up and yelled in the refs ear, he turns around and said something back. That field is a foot doctors dream. Al the Pal said he tripped walking on it in before the game. It looks terrible, and you can still see the Chicago logo. Again though, 1/ an exciting game 2/ full props to the Orlando fans for turning up and being loud. 3/ camera man likes finding hot girls in the crowd. THis is the game Money should burn onto the website as a 'see a game' feature.
Crud. How could I have forgotten to mention the girls. I think it's safe to say that Orlando has the hottest babes for fans. Dancers weren't too bad, either. The game was pretty decent, but very sloppy and overly physical at times. Nagy played one heck of a game. If they keep most of the guys they have & pepper in a few more vets, preferrably a finisher & the Sharks will be a playoff contender.
