    20 of those shots would be with a wide open net, minimum.

    ARGGGHHH. Just seeing the damn name Chad Barrett brings back an inexplicable, unjustifiable anger that I thought I had repressed.

    Didn't Chad Barret also score on us in that blowout US Open Cup final against Seattle?

    I think the Calen Carr x11 team would wipe the floor with most of these poor imitations.

    No, he did not.

    The US Open Cup Final between Seattle and the Fire was only 2-0. It was 2011, before Barrett was even with Seattle.
    Montero and Alonzo.

    The 2014 US Open Cup semi-final was the 6-0 blowout and, yes, Barrett scored in that game (the "game winning" goal at that).

    Barrett ending up "playing" (well, wearing the uniform for, since he was not much of a player) for 7 MLS teams in 12 years.

    Can we 'trade' him again for Bob Bradley?
    I would trade 11 Rodrigo Faria for 1 Bob Bradley.

    You said "good one" in response to Rodrigo Faria.

    Clearly, you know nothing about the Fire. [emoji6]

    Also being "excited" about Faria?
    For shame.[emoji106]

    He was a decent player.
    Hard working, I was mad when they cut him midseason.

    [ how to fix formatting? white space ignored ]

    Stojanovich over Djordje is a wild guess. I figure Bornstein holds off Navarro for a while. Short turnarounds: it's a given that the top subs are gonna get substantial minutes. Can't effin' wait!

    Did you have to look up any of the players?
    Why is Bornstein playing right back (or do I have it backwards)?

    Another dude I still get unreasonably angry at after all of these years. A freaking car dealership tube man could’ve finished the opportunities he had against AC Milan and I feel like his whole time with the Fire was spent providing opposing goalkeepers with the easiest possible save in every situation.
