    I suppose this is fair. I like seeing how both sides were reprimanded.

    I would assume this means that we will get to see Rodriquez play his natural left back position. That has to be a positive.

    I thought Brandon McDonald's early tackle on Blas was straight red worthy, 2 footed, through the back of the legs, so I am glad to see the league step up and say the referee did not do enough.

    Jair is a card waiting to happen all the time. :(

    Glad to see the league reviewing the refereeing and attempting to clean the game up. Doesn't matter to me which side is being corrected as long as it is done impartially.

    Just do it.
    How about we never see him officiate a game again.

    Can you not scratch referees in MLS? Most leagues allow you to do that. It is a great accountability tool.

    That's the key. I've seen several bad tackles on FCD players this year that nothing has been done on afterward. KC game in particular.

    I think this thread will be active all year long.
