Post-match: Still Streaking - MLS MATCHDAY 22 CREW @ ARCA UNITED SAT JULY 30TH 700PM (CHARLOTTE FC)

Boo to the weather delay.

 

They're re-airing the interview with Lucas and Cucho from pregame.

I'm looking at radar and it seems that it could be gone soon-ish, but there's a second round in around 8:45.

 

Dave Maetzold is in for Brett Hiltbrand today. Neil made a comment about how Dave is "used to precipitation due to the rink" and another comment about "with all the condensation, you don't need a Zamboni for this one."

Dave did give a shout-out to the traveling Crew fans, however.

Tick-tock Neil.

 

Football. I don’t watch nba , nhl ever or mlb ever. I do watch nba playoffs .

someone ( Bill) mentioned teams not Airing a game still had A pre game show . Buckeye football definitely has pre game regardless. In my Opinion Crew should always have a pregame show.

 

I just looked at the radar and it looks like rain at least through midnight in Charlotte. The question is, will the lightning stay away from the stadium during all of this rain?

 

What a freaking loss. Just the best. Irreplaceable.

I still can't believe that Mike Campbell is now with Fleetwood Mac. Helluva comedown

 

Yes to part 1.

No to part 2.

Seen Petty a handful of times, from 1986 to around 2005 or so. And he is VERY good. Seen him headline, back/tour with Dylan (and the Dead) tour with Jackson Browne, and he's been the best band on the ticket everytime.

I never saw the Mac at full strength until very recently (though had seen them several times with one of Buckingham, Nicks, or McVie missing). And certainly never in their mid 70s prime or the early blues driven Peter Green incarnation. But the full strength Mac was better, even at their advanced age.

 

Buckingham is a blisteringly good guitar player. And a good singer. Not surprised at all it takes two.

 

Neil with some actual valid information: According to MLS rules, the game must kick off by 10pm ET. If it can't, they'll postpone.

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a break in the weather.

 

Not that it mattered....

 

See you tomorrow.

 

So that's why we played 2 min and 38 sec a few weeks back.....

 

How did Charlotte get Columbus type weather..it's a weird storm pattern

 

Climate change...

 

I wonder if they'll attempt something similar tonight.

Both teams play Wednesday and next Saturday. It's probably out of the question to play at 1pm or something similar early tomorrow.

 

Holy crap!

Their website actually has an update!
https://www.charlottefootballclub.com/

It directs fans to go to Twitter and says they'll update there every 20 minutes.

They also update via their app and email.

If lightning is within an eight mile radius, it's a new 30 minutes.

By my uneducated guess, we could be looking at 9pm, based off the weather channel app.

 

There's a rumor going around the stadium the game could be postponed to tomorrow.

If you can spoof your IP to the Carolinas, that's the link to the Charlotte broadcast.

Per Neil:
10pm kickoff is due to a noise ordinance in Charlotte. Teams "would prefer" to not play tomorrow.
