    Do we need to protect Owen Goal, or is he a homegrown?

    I think Berry should get credit for that in the grouchy points……

    The teenage daughter was highly embarrassed by my persistent and emphatic booing of that mulletted @sshat.

    It couldn't have been as bad as the guy behind me in the nordecke. He had his kids and roasted him. I thought I was booing him hard.

    First time quoting myself. I will take a bow for calling the 4 goal win.

    DC & Montreal drew. That was as good as it got. No help from Cincy or Toronto (both at home), as Orlando & Atlanta won.

    DC & Montreal both on 41. City & NYRB vs each other tomorrow. Regardless, at least one team above the line will be on 41.

    If we win midweek (Mensah back?), I think we will have a shot to be above the line next weekend.

    FWIW tonight:

    Zardes: 2 goals (2 headers)
    Santos: 1 G, 2 A (1st non PK G this year)
    Nagbe: 2 A

    Nice to see our big guns stepping up. If Pedro can get going, that should help. Needed a confidence boost after the PK miss. Nagbe's steal & dish to Pedro was nice.

    Speaking of nice feeds to Pedro.....Vito started the play that led th Zardes' 2nd with a really nice pass into space that Pedro ran down. Got an assist. Vito did something positive!

    Look, I know Miami sucks and are in a funk, but the last team they beat was us. We did not give up soft goal, for once. Frenchie looks good. Milton is looking more like himself, as is Josh. Nagbe, Zardes, & Pedro were great. Hairston was good. Even friggin' Vito was good. If LZ can get going, lookout.

    here's some math:
    http://www.sportsclubstats.com/USA/Columbus.html

    As you can see, 46 points is a slim chance.
    49 is a good chance.
    47 or 48 is a question mark.

    The wins for Atlanta and Orlando tonight will probably knock a few percentage points off of all those chances when they run the simulations again next week.

    Wanna give a shout out to Pedro, dude played maybe his best game ever for the Crew last night. That sprint and cross for the third goal happened right in front of me, was fantastic.

    Yes indeed.

    And in fairness, since the guy has taken some major slagging around here, it should be noted that the insane ball into space that Pedro got on the end of was a pass from Vito Wormgoor.

    And he deserves the slagging. He had another horror turnover last night, and the only reason it didn't turn a 1-0 game into a 1-1 game is because the attacker slipped trying to cut it around Eloy.

    I'm trying to decide whether I liked that play more, or the play Nagbe made on the goal he scored. When I saw Nagbe get forward with pace, I immediately said "Oh, this s**t's on now." Great slotted ball to Santos, who calmly finished it. For a second, when I saw that divot come up in the post-goal celebration slide that he had injured himself. That would have summed up the season pretty accurately.

    But on goal #3, I thought Santos has misjudged the speed of the ball, and wasn't even going to be able to get to it to keep it in play. When he one-timed the cross, I didn't think there was any way in hell he was going to be able to control where he was hitting it. And he dropped it right onto Gyasi's head.

    True. But it wasn't all negative. For once. Williams (New England), Keita, and even Mensah have all been bitten by the bad back pass/square ball bug this year.

    For me, that kind of thing is happens when you lack feel for the game, or you just don't see the guy (or do not look for him).

    That lack of feel can come from rust (Josh's was in one of his first games back), not having a feel for the game early on, or dead legs late or if the player has been overplayed.

    Vito has been underwhelming to say the least. Injuries + not looking great when he was out there has meant very little PT. He also got a needless yellow 65 yards from goal. But with 4 more games in the next two weeks, we are likely gonna need him a couple more times, and poor backpass aside (yes, a huge error) he was pretty good.

    Counting Campeones, we are 4-1-1 in our last six, with the back pass monster costing us a win in NE. Four in a row at home. If we can replicate that home form in the next 3, and that NE road performance, I think we have a shot.

    And even after suffering a gunshot wound early in the match.

    I swear, I'd be a full on Sanch Fan if they guy had a 1:1 shots to falling down ratio. So much potential, and he proved it last night.

    Gonzalo Higuain walking around like he was in a pool full of water helped Vito look good.
