    Let's get cynical and have fun with it.

    Choose the reason for ABC to pull the plug on MLS Cup this afternoon.

    Well, if New England doesn't pick it up.....it won't matter...

    25 minutes in, and this has not been very interesting...no shots on goal, hardly able to string a pass together...

    LA playing in a much more interesting style....I don't think that it what "big bang" events are made of (away team doing all the interesting things)..

    Let's hope the match picks up...a lot...

    My goodness...the crowd sounds outstanding....ready to pounce on any bit of good play.....and the Revs are playing like absolute crap so far...

    Spacing really bad...too many easy giveaways....looks more like a youth-league game...players not showing a ton of composure

    My, oh my...let's do hope this changes...

    I honestly wouldnt be suprised if the match was interuppted for one of the above reasons.
    Hopefully we will capture that wacko(the sniper).

    if Israel and Palestine agreed to lasting peace, i'd probably call up Satan and see if he knows about it.

    It was interrupted; at least it was in the Richmond, VA area. Once during halftime so the doctor that operated on the guy who got shot last night could get on TV, and then they interrupted again for the last 10 minutes of the first overtime so the Hanover County superintendent could get on TV. The interruption during halftime was somewhat understandable; at least it didn't occur during live play. They mentioned that they would be covering the second press conference, but during the second half they put a crawler on the bottom of the screen, so I thought they would wait until after the game.
