Where: Da Bronx Why: Our injuries haven't forced us to forfeit, yet. When: Tomorrow 10/7/2020, 7:00 PM EDT How: DCU is still working on the "how's" of soccer. What: possible burning bag of feces, inside a dumpster fire. Injuries: Arriola, Flores, Martins, Segura, Abu, Birnbaum Suspensions: Brilliant Mitrita bailed on NYC and may not come back. Possible lineup (if submitted correctly prior to kickoff): Hamid OA - Sjoeberg - Pines - Mora Yow - Gressel - Moreno - Asad Kamara - Reyna James
Courtesy of Frank Zappa, there are four major questions going into this match: When do we bend over? How far do we bend over? When we bend, do we spread? Who's got the Crisco?
LOL ... My DirecTV guide for Channel 8 lists MLS Soccer @ 7-9 tonight. Tomorrow, it lists political shows and other infomercials. Actually on Ch 8 - an infomercial. The whole shebang is a shit-show. Whale grease. Unrefined.
I just saw that and thought maybe I was fortunate to miss it. After I was disappointed, I visited this thread.
Goff's pregame article always includes a probable lineup - until today's. Even Goff can't imagine what it might be. As for me, I want to see the youngsters, including, please, Sorga (who has looked better than the others IMO), along with Gressel, who is better than he has shown to date while with DCU.
Someone didn't make the trip: Reporting w/@PaulTenorio: #DCU have had a positive COVID test result. The player did not travel to NY for tonight's match against #NYCFC and is being retested per league/club protocol. More on this as it develops.— Pablo Iglesias Maurer (@MLSist) October 7, 2020
I didn't realize that Birnbaum's ankle problem had flared up again, and he isn't on the game roster. Neither is the unidentified mystery player who tested positive. On the positive side, we're playing on that tiny pitch at Yankee Stadium. Just stretch out 6'7" Axel Sjoberg in front of the goal and we should have a lockdown defense.
Birnbaum was ruled out for this game before any announcement of the Covid positive, so that's very doubtful.
Was the game always at 8pm? Or did this tweet update the picture? It's match day!🆚 @NYCFC 📍 Yankee Stadium⏰ 8:00PM ET📺 WJLA or https://t.co/watWyvnQ3G#NYCvDC | #VamosUnited pic.twitter.com/x1msUgX5iM— D.C. United (@dcunited) October 7, 2020 Thx, Jay!
Jeopardy? Of not playing? I do not think it means what you think it means..? Tolkien called it a eucatastrophe.
Well, looks like they are letting the kids play midfield (plus Moreno ). (EDIT: Looks like Reyna is the COVID positive... hope it is a false positive for numerous reasons).
