    When: Saturday 14 May 8:00 pm EDT
    Who: DC United at Club Internacional de Fútbol Miami
    Where: DRV PNK Stadium
    Forecast: Mostly sunny 79°F (77% humidity) and a slight chance of showers or t-storms
    How, if not in South Florida: NBC Sports Washington, TeleXitos, the team website locally, or ESPN+ elsewhere

    Those are herons you say, not flamingos? Really? Are you sure? Ok, herons it is.

    The open cup is in the rear view mirror, and today begins the first week with three league games this year.

    Are any of the Miami players still hearing the noise of F1 engines in their ears?

    I'm going with our offense clicking and our defense still missing. 3-2 good guys.

    So a 2-2 draw would be a victory, right?

    Miami Gardens is much closer to Miami than where this team currently plays. Their second stadium will of course be better than Eagle Bank Field.

    Ha! I was going to say those are flamingos, not herons.

    Neither one of these teams is especially good. I think 2-2 sounds about right

    yeah, Estrada is a bit baffling. I guess we're going to keep putting Flores out there to roll that boulder up the hill

    I would also really like to see Kamara and Taxi link up but Flores and Estrada must know where the bodies are buried.

    Weather delay. Sigh.

    Some days, you lose. Some days, it rains.

    I'm pretty sure it's not. It's on ESPN+ if you can find a sports bar nearby.

    Yes, but of what? After 15 minutes, there’s been all of one shot. Mostly a bunch of guys swimming through 95% humidity. I used to live in Ft. Lauderdale. It isn’t fun.

    Couple of half chances for us, one for Miami. This game desperately needs a goal but it doesn’t seem likely yet.

    Defense switched off for a second and Bill seems to be fighting the ball a bit today.

    Ouch. Conceding on a corner. Switched off again. For those predicting a 2-2 scoreline, we’ve got a steep hill to climb.

    If they had said that he was bullying players that would've been one thing. The FO line was we have a great team and weren't getting great results. This team is Taxi and nothing.
