    Garfan can't mark a traffic cone and Sheanon can't hit the broadside of a barn on his crosses.

    The first goal was well designed by NY. On the second - who was marking Lane(?)? Martinez? It was pathetic.

    LeToux deserves credit for the first goal since we were clearly more worried about him than Cooper.

    the Pink Cows are getting away with tugs and pulls left and right, its borderline ridiculous, we're getting absolutely no help from the refs at all. On a side note the Farfans, especially Gabe, always have a tendency to be a bit hot headed which is unnecessary. Gabe was lucky to not get a yellow for his shove on Cooper as I believe he was carded earlier for diving (unless that was Marfan) and would have been off .

    Its not a rumor. Its the truth.

    So Brek Shea misses 76 practices and he'll likely still play in today's match, while Freddy stays out till midnight before one match, and is left off the squad for the season's biggest match. Makes sense.

    I 100% agree. Could someone make a gif of him being offsides?

    Yes

    When its 100 degrees or hotter, then there's a reason to complain. At least you have the rain to cool you down.

    Prophetic.


    We're not paying him to drink, party, and be hungover on the bench. I hope the fines are double the would be earnings for a game.

    ARs did this game wrong. We should have seen a 1-1 result. Damn shame.

    This is where the American in me comes out and says, "Why can't they just use instant replay to override the reftards?"

    Poor Hoppenot. He earned that one.

    To be fair, I feel as though he knew he wouldn't be making the trip when he went out

    The refs sucked all around this game. Said Cooper was onside, said Hoppenot was offside as well as countless missed calls with the Red Bulls players tugging and pulling our players all game and getting away with it. To be fair, Gabe probably could have gotten a second yellow but the ref blew that too.

    Soumare, we aquired you 3 weeks ago, f'n play already.
    Lahoud, you suck at life.
    Martinez, you at suck at soccer.
    Pajoy, you suck.
    Garfan, you back on my shit list.

    what a sad display this afternoon. No creativity, no killer instinct, and no goals. Surprise, surprise.

    I hope the Adu benching means he's on his way out and Brek Shea in.

    Hoppenot rules it. Bullshit call, typical on MLS refs.

    He also tweeted that he wished he was with his teammates today. That didnt sound like a trading block tweet but who knows

    You either don't know the Union traveled to NJ yesterday, or you have no idea where Xfinity Live is.

    probably both. by the time Adu was at Xfinity Live he would have already known he wasn't going to NY and his teammates would have already been in their hotels in NJ/NY. So his partying last night has nothing to do with being off the team for the game.

    I agree with most of what's been said. To add I thought MacMath played well today. There was really nothing you can do to prevent headed goals when they are struck hard to the corner within the 8 yard box. He had a couple really good saves and I'm glad he seemed to have bounced back after having the last 3 goals he gave up were rough.

    Still doesn't mean he isn't a dickhead for doing it. Order some pizza and wings and get some beers and show your team some respect and not get a picture taken at a bar the night before the game you got benched for.

    I know where Xfinity Live is. I didn't know that the Union traveled yesterday. Seeing that the MLS is 'cheap', I figured that the U would of traveled to NJ this morning.
