We posted our pre-match thread in our forum before you guys did. So we're already ahead on the BigSoccer scoreboard Paul (desperately trying to stoke SOME kind of fire in here...)
...this doesn't exactly have the fervor of SD-Atlanta, rivalry-wise. Yet. We still owe you for the hack-A-Shaq tactics Rhiannon Tanaka pulled on Kelly Smith in the first Torero game last year; should have been red-carded and suspended instead of getting a yellow card 5 minutes from full time. We'll be filming "Dog the Wag" however, tomorrow night - as in dogging Ms. Wagner from :01 to 93:00, that is . Paul (remember the movie 'Wag the Dog'?)
Maybe that's because the Beat are such classy, spirited, slick, tough, hard-assed, beautiful, groovy team, and the sandy-egos are a such pathetic, diving, wingeing, sniveling, gutless, moronic, sloppy, excuse for a soccer side.
Which is now $450 lighter in its collective wallet today Paul (yeah, chump change, and you forgot to add 'midgy' to your prose there :=D)
Yeeesh, no kidding. Rightly they were fined for being obnoxious, boorish and witless but they should have also been fined for being too ugly for TV. Losers.
To parphrase Janet on Friends: I want to buy a vowel. Only Atlanta fans could consider the Beasts classy. And no one but an idiot could consider Tom Stone classy.
They went, all right. Went and done seen their 7-match unbeaten streak evaporate like a steak knife through heated Velveeta. Paul

"To parphrase Janet on Friends: I want to buy a vowel" That's obvious considering being the ass end of the Alphabet and the Spirit need to get some players skilled at something other than fouling and whining and championship diving. WELL DONE CHARGE!!!
"But they have Aly!" True but one player does not a Team make. Error by me in 1st post They do have Shannon Mac who I wish a speedy recovery to.
We are just trying to be like Julie Foudy because she is our hero but we just can't quite pull it off !!!!! Kudos to the Beat fans for passing the collection plate to help Hoop with the "expenses". She needs to keep on saying it like it is. We know a whining dive and a crap call when we see one.
