KC @ New York Pregame [R]

Don't expect a lot of new wrinkles, I heard that we are playing the same line-up that we played last week.

 

what about VDB
is he not starting? on the bench?

 

If he's on the bench, I might be in the fire Bliss camp on day 1.

Even if he's sucked in practice, you have to throw a guy like that out for the first game after his transfer. You can sub him out at the half if he's too Vuk, but it seems to happen that you can often get a Mathis or Herron like torrid start with mid-season transfer players. The same seems to be true in basketball. It's guaranteed that a few of our guys will rip it up for the first 8-10 games of a season at a new team even if they spend the rest of the season on the bench.

mlsnet article about the game.

I didn't even think about it at the time but Bliss points it out in the article he now has to coach both the first team and the reserves.

So John Cone is doing what exactly? Being a traffice cone.... Seriously I know he's fitness oriented guy going under the duties as assigned as Goalkeeper coach but from what we've seen it's been debateable that there's been any goalkeeping coaching going on during the season. Bo came in a little more svelt early on but he's not anymore.

I think we take da bulls though. Win one for the Blisser... Meola's out hurt and Djorkaeff is still aiding his ill mother with her penalty kick strategies in case the final goes tied after extra time. Apparently no one got him the Grimandi memo stating that he's should be back by now.

 

How do you put on weight if you are supposedly practicing 2 hours a day? I know he's a keeper but that's hard. At least he's not Runelvys Hernandez and is still servicable. I think if Bo's in and Meola's out, we win this one. Meola has owned us since he left. Bo did own-bike himself last time we played them though, so maybe Cone can work with him to avoid that.

 

has bo's own-bike just been attributed to his weight?

 

like taking a Bic to the top of his melon?

 

I've figured it out... It's not just the Wizards you hate. You hate life too, don't you?

 

Use the ignore list Chad if you're going to continue to respond to every pblake post this way. He doesn't post about you, yet you continually answer virtually every post of his like he's attacked you personally or something.

 

I agree, just hit ignore or pm him.

 

I never said anything about him attacking me... but every post he makes attacks this team, the players on it, or the organization (in this case the coach). What kind of a "fan" is that?

 

With "fans" like pblake, who needs enemies?

 

So, wait...there's a watch party for this, right?


....Right?

 

Exactly.

 

yes

 

uh oh. we're judging what makes a good fan again?

 

Outright negativitiy 99% of the time just strikes me as a really odd way to support a team.

 

i'm not saying i disagree... just that this is a sticky topic.

 

No doubt about that.
