The replay of the 2nd goal doesn't show if Walker was offside or not because it was a goal view. The sideline view still seem that he was.

True, but I don't know if we can trust Lewis in this situation. Maybe Ty just needs to chill.

I'd risk Lewis before i'd risk another card for Marshall. He has been pretty heated since about the 10th minute. all it takes is 1 wild tackle and its over and we're a man down.

Hmmmm. I thought the playoffs

1. Sucked
2. Make MLS a laughingstock
3. Are unfair
4. All of the above

I get so confused sometimes reading Big Soccer!

Playing the same opponent over and over again is what make the NBA, NHL and MLB playoffs so darn compelling. Spartan Stadium is a freaking bandbox!

Dang, Lalas or Lewis? If we're going to bunker, I'd say go with Lalas. But if we're not, I'd still go with him. Experience over youth.

Replay of the 2nd SJ goal. Nope, looks like Walker was onside.

Second half begins! Marshall still in.

Too funny, was he pimp slapping all the hot super models sayin' "back off beeeotch you can't have none of this?" Happens to me all the time!

Have they been doing the "We're so bored with San HO Se" chant or can you even hear them?

I can only hear Sj chants. LA chants are faded to none. Put the mike near them.

LLCOOLJEW · Nov 9, 2003

things seemed to of settled down for the time being....

rokstedy · Nov 9, 2003

Hartman punches out and clears for LA.

Bill Schmidt · Nov 9, 2003

SJ goal

Amigos F.C. · Nov 9, 2003

First couple minutes and the pace has slowed down a little. Not so helter skelter as the first half. This could and most likely will change.

Not a lot of possession for either team. SJ earns a corner. Hartman punches it out of danger. Cobi tries a counter. Nevermind on the pace call. SJ earns a free kick just outside the box.

Crap. Goal SJ.

LLCOOLJEW · Nov 9, 2003

ouch

rokstedy · Nov 9, 2003

WTF? 3-2 SJ. High header by Walker. Maybe Lalas should be in there.

LLCOOLJEW · Nov 9, 2003

yellow to mullan. clips Morenos ankle.

Bill Schmidt · Nov 9, 2003

yellow for walker

LLCOOLJEW · Nov 9, 2003

looks like bunker ball now.

Bill Schmidt · Nov 9, 2003

yep Mullan yellowcard, my TV is too small.

rokstedy · Nov 9, 2003

Shot on goal save by Hartman.

rokstedy · Nov 9, 2003

Predictable cross by Jones intercepted by Onstad.

NICDT Coach · Nov 9, 2003

WTF is going on here? Sounds like we need to control the ball. Not bunker, just control, bring on Cien.

Bill Schmidt · Nov 9, 2003

Gs finally making a calm orchestrated push

rokstedy · Nov 9, 2003

LA wasted a chance inside the box.

Another Sj shot, save by Hartman.

Bill Schmidt · Nov 9, 2003

unbelievable double save from two yards by SJ

rokstedy · Nov 9, 2003

DAMN! 2 chances wasted by LA! Corner LA!
