I'm liking the United shorthanded. Sounds like fun to me. Crew 4 - DC 0. However if MLS had their way it would be Crew 1 - DC 435 with Adu getting 434 of the goals and that criminal getting 1.
Andrulis will probably stick with the same lineup as much as he can. He doesn't seem to like change unless forced to. Busch - Akwari, Fraser, Marshall - Paule, Elliott (if ready or Lagos if not) - Oughton, Martino, Lagos (or Denton, see above) - Cunningham, Ritch (based on what he said in the interview on 1460 he still likes what he sees from Ritch which is why we still need to get his a** fired). Testo off the bench at the half just like last week. Elliott or Denton around the 70 minute mark. Someone at the 89 minute mark.
I'm getting negative vibes on this one. We're going to have to lose soon enough, and one place that we have lost a lot at has been DC. I see them pulling this one out by a goal. That being said, I still hate them with every bone in my body, and I hope Legbreaker keeps his cool, or else St. Dunc will have to put the betchsmack down.
You keep pouring, I'll keep drinking. How can you kick a man when he's down? Easy. He's that much closer to your foot. Hate comes easy to a Detroiter.
To tell you the truth, I'm looking forward to the Crew playing absolutely crap soccer for 89 minutes, letting DC have all posession and multiple strikes off goal. Then in stopage time Cunningham dives and gets a penalty stealing the game from them. That was so fun last time. Then we can laugh and laugh and laugh at DC's coach, players, and fans some more as they cry, bitch, and moan about how unfair the world is.
I was having a sh!tty afternoon, until I read that post. Now, I can't wipe the smile from my face! Thanks for lighting up my day by providing the possibility of DC heartbreak, moaning, and crying!
columbus continues to play the most gorgeous soccer ever and wins, 5:0 Cunningham 17', 27' Denton 21' Ritch 47' Martino 67'
WTF is Martino "iffy" for. Has teher been any mention of an injury anywhere else that I missed? http://www.cybersoccernews.com/mls/crew/040618crew-dcuadv.shtml
Sorry about that last post, but I couldn't resist. There isn't much to say about sheep that hasn't already been said.
I suppose there are DC players who could be criticized for a lack of toughness, but Benny isn't the one I would pick. 1) He is way up on the career list of most fouled players in MLS history. 2) He is a harder-working player than anyone not on MLS' "hardest working team". 3) He is not afraid to mix it up with anyone. 4) Benny is probably the least metrosexual player in MLS based on the various facial and hairstyles he has sported over the years.
Look guy, I haven't been out clubbin with Ben Olsen so I have no idea how metrosexual he may or may not be, and truthfully I really don't care. But considering all the injury problems your team has, and how many Ben has had in his career perhaps you should be discussing that over on your boards instead of adding absolutely nothing over here. When we start a "best/worst hair and facial hair combo of MLS" thread maybe we'll give ya a ring.
Have you seen the play that caused the initial injury (when he was playing for Nottingham Forest? It goes a long way towards explaining why he had a series of leg injuries. Anyway, you are the one who brought up Ben Olsen - not me. All of this because of one throw-away line about Kyle Martino? Learn to laugh at yourselves a little - you Crew fans are so parochial. I guess you don't know how to handle fans of opposing teams who don't make "Cowlumbus" and sheepshagger jokes.
Right, because whenever and someone tries to talk serious on the D.C. boards it really works. Try This: http://my.voyager.net/~sheeplady/Sheep.htm
Anything Cry Baby Olsen got was good for me. I laugh at him and I sing songs in commemoration of that good fellow who put Cry Baby on the stretcher. Too bad they didn't put him out for good so I wouldn't have to watch his worthless DC SCUM Bastard attempt to play kickball. Go back to the DC boards and bitch about how the world is so unfair and jack to your Freddy posters to console yourself. We don't want you here. ******** CRY BABY OLSEN AND ******** YOU TOO.
Let's Get It On Tear Off Those Dc Scum Heads And ******** Down Their Throats I'm Ready, Whose With Me?
