Conf. Semis, Gm. 2- Chitown vs. DC - In Game Commentary

FairWeatherFan · Nov 9, 2003

Hey, will anyone here have access to a television and also be updating with posts? I´m in a computer lab somewhere in a rural hillside of spain, and I can´t do much... but I sure as hell have managed to access bigsoccer.

Better yet, you can listen to live PBP on Wbig internet radio. They have alot of commercials, but they're pretty good.

Just click on the "listen online" under the Fire logo

I would, but the computers here can´t play audio. Thanks for the offer though

Greddy · Nov 9, 2003

Oh, in that case, I could post when something big happens(Goals,Cards) if no one else is doing it. Other than that, you might be able to find someone doing a more in depth PBP on the DC forum.

BTW, nice headline

You can check our forum, but since this match is on ESPN2 and away, most of us will be either at a local pub of on the couch watching the match, but you never know. Some of our Mod's may be doing PBP. Good luck.

Thank you. The best access to the US that I have from here is a slow-modem computer without sound or the ability to show live-stream video. I appreciate the offers.

ps- if it bothers Liam, then it´s usually worthwhile.

There's almost always somebody in the DC United AIM chatroom. If you need updates I'd go there. The instructions are on the DC United board's FAQ.

The room is BigSoccerDCU.

Nice. I paid a few "Euros" (that´s like spanish "dollars") to use this machine that claims to be a computer. I´ve been trying to figure out an appropriate way to support the Fire from thousands miles away and I finally decided on my plan. Today I have carred around a backpack full of 40´s and yelled "Chicago!" at all of the people I passed on the street.

We´re sending good vibes across the Atlantic from over here... but they have to be low-frequency vibes in order to reach Chicago.

Stop by if you're looking for PBP etc.

FairWeatherFan · Nov 9, 2003

If I get in, I´ll keep my mouth shut.

Greddy · Nov 9, 2003

OK, here we go. It's pre game time on ESPN. from what I could see, it looks like we got a great crowd at the game today. I could only see the west side, but both levels ware filled.

Also, please feel free to chime in with your comments. If no one is reading this, i'll stop writing

FairWeatherFan · Nov 9, 2003

Hells yeah! I´m bracing for a big game!

Greddy · Nov 9, 2003

VERY fast paced game so far. Suprisingly, both teams seem to be in attacking mode.

Pack87Man · Nov 9, 2003

Ivanov is starting for DC instead of Namoff, Stewart's up top with Quaranta, and Stoichkov is not starting, but I forget who's in his place.

Greddy · Nov 9, 2003

Razov free kick from 35 goes wide.

JeffGMc · Nov 9, 2003

I'm in and out reading, AIM chat with the DC people going as well. No time to get to the bar today because of work. Boo work!

At any rate, let's get this thing done.

FairWeatherFan · Nov 9, 2003

Second that! but the mullet can be distracting...

FairWeatherFan · Nov 9, 2003

if this is going to be another rugby style game...

DC´s about to run into a little something I like to call the nudillo bocadillo.

Pack87Man · Nov 9, 2003

Fire looks like they're holding the run of play for the most part thus far.

Pack87Man · Nov 9, 2003

Offside on Razov. So close.
