PBP: DC - Me against the World - 2025 season game thread

Harkening (Harkening, get it) back to better times, I just finished watching MLS Cup 97 and am now watching MLS Cup 04.

 

You’re really setting the table to be disappointed later.

 

The 2010 WC was infamous for all of the vuvuzelas but the MLS Cup 2004 had a shitload of horns.

 

ROTATION! (Ok... looking at the bench maybe just suck)

 

That's one way of putting it.

 

That lineup is... something.

 

Troy is about to park 3 buses across the 18.

 

So, the "attack" is Peglow, Murrell and Hopkins?

 

Of all the lineups I've seen, that sure is one of them!

 

Fortunate for the flag

 

Might not hold up looks close.

 

If DCU had a MLS Next team I’d say this was. a MLS Next lineup.

 

This match is the cure for insomnia.

 

Is this the worst passing DC team ever?

 

I'm not sure the English language can describe that half. If DCU was in the USL Championship, it wouldn't make the playoffs. When one of the PBP announcers can diagnose how one-dimensional Peltola's passing is, no wonder this team can't string together three passes forward. Just ********ing awful.

 

I have an old cost-accounting textbook for that. I'd hate to have to rewatch this match!

 

Boring as hell but the defense has been solid so far.

 

Visions of backflush costing dancing in my head.

 

Andy Najar is going to win this game for Nashville isn't he?

 

That was reckless someone on DC deserves a yellow.

 

This is an awful game. Both teams should be disbanded.

 

Bartlett lucky to be on the field. Looked onside on the replay and he clearly pulled him back.

 

Najar tried to hook us up.

 

That was the chance and Murrell blasted it high and wide.
