    Conference finals this week. The semifinals saw 4 tight games, some controversy, unlikely heroes, and the usual villains (VAR, PRO). The finals see Hell is Real in Ohio, as FCC hosts the Crew, and out west the defending champs host the upstart Dynamo.

    As usual all game times are eastern. National broadcasts & Free games are listed. All games can be viewed using MLS Season Pass on Apple TV. Game times are subject to change, so check the MLS website after the first two rounds of games in Round 1.

    MLS N&A play by play threads are neutral spaces. Keep all rivalry-esque banter out of these parts. Bullying. personal attacks and/or trolling will not be tolerated.

    Saturday, December 2

    FCC vs CLB 6:09PM
    LAX vs HOU 9:39PM

    Ready for that 309 PT kick. Pregame show picking Crew due to Cincy absences...
    Amusing question to Wilfred Nancy about prioritizing "style or substance".
    His response (paraphrased): "we play this way because we think it gives us the best chance to win"

    Too many things right now. 4 FBS conference championship games on TV, an FCS playoff overtime game on the laptop, UFC in another tab, and now MLS. I need more eyes.

    Early long ball from Yaboah testing the Cincy backline. Well defended and Barreal wins second ball.

    Bad turnover. I still thought the defense was going to recover enough to prevent a goal. I was wrong.

    Poor giveaway from Farsi there leads to FCC's opener.

    Annnnnnnnd a turnover while trying to play out of the back costs the Crew a goal. Yep, never stop.

    Bad turnover (does Gressel make that same mistake?). Thought Amundsen could have done better to block the shot from that angle.
