    Columbus Crew SC 3, Seattle Sounders FC 0

    Notes:
    The lads fly across the country to the soggy nether regions of CASCADIA to do battle against those plucky league darlings and soccering giants, the Seattle Sounders, and kick off a week featuring three opportunities for your favorite team in black and gold (NOT YOU, LAFC) to disappoint you.

    The Sounders have been, uh... less than good this season. They're not scoring goals. They're not stopping goals. I'm not sure what they're doing out on the field. In fact, I'm pretty sure most of their guys don't know what they're doing out there, either.

    Anywho, this match poses all sorts of interesting questions:
    • Can the Crew capitalize on the Sounders poor form and capture three huge road points? (prolly no)
    • Will GYASINHO bag like, I dunno, a gyazillionty goals? (u bet ur ********en ass, jerkface)
    • Is there anything more douchey than a Sounders capo? (naw, dawg!!1 u even kno bout fratboy???)
    • If a team's leading scorer is Will Bruin, will that team make the playoffs? (lolwut)
    • Can Pedro Santos build upon his league-leading 35 fouls suffered? (he's already on the ground)
    All we know for certain is that we'll lose by two. Huzzah! Oh, and just FIGHT(!!) and WIN(!!!!), baby!

    Another opportunity to play a struggling team. We've not exactly taken these opportunities.

    If not now, when?

    I'd be surprised to see Grella this time out, turf and recovering knees don't seem to mesh well. Wouldn't mind if he didn't make the trip, then we can start him on Wednesday or next Saturday and flip flop his 60/30, 30/60 minutes. Let Hansen and Martinez make the trip.

    I hate that this game is at 4pm. I really like 10:30 kick off west coast games. I get the kids to bed at 9:30 and have some pregame time to relax and settle in with full attention and no interruptions.

    Will Zardes be playing? If so, then I have no place to vote.

    I would be in bed before 10:30. ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz, man.

    The support that Seattle fans have for SaveTheCrew has tempered my hate for the Sounders.
    I actually think the Seattle fans are seeing how they are not the MLS darlings anymore. LAFC, Atlanta are the new supery dupery special team. They know no one is safe.

    Oh, I don't hate Sounders fans. Nothing close to that.

    They just make me cringe.

    A lot of fans have shown support for us. Strangely, I hate Garber more than any team and that includes DC.

    I will be at the game. Anyone else making the cross country trip? I will be interested in how many people come up and talk to me about the potential moving of the team. Once every two years do I get this chance so it’s going to be a fun day.

    Sir, that is clearly a pizza cake, not deep-dish. Regardless, YOU'RE DEAD WRONG.

    Deepdish is pizza cake. Or casserole. Only difference is sugar

    They should have asked Toronto about no one being safe.

    Afful didn’t even get carded for that! I know the ref was crap, and the league fines people for things that happened in-match that didn’t get called.
    But it still makes me mad.
    I guess in the big pic it’s better to pick up a fine than a card (which, of course, when accumulated, means you have to sit out a game...)

    Has Dos Santos ever been fined for that?

    The league needs to review that SJ game and fine Bozakos for simulating the role of ref...
