I might show up at Robertson on Sat. but I sure will be in Frisco for Monterrey vs. Chiapas.....give them losers up there the privilege of having my presence for a few hours. and of course be back here in time to ravage them Tigays. I little birdie told me that the law was laid down on the Little Kitty Cats at Isla Navidad in Colima where they have been "trainning" Seems the UANL top honchos didn't find it too amusing that the Rayados won the most recent MFL Championship and got around 400,000 Regiomontanos into the streets filled with joy, then started to chant: "and here it is, here it is. this is for the Tigres who are watching it on T.V." Look for a brawl in that Classico !!

Santos vs America will be a good match, especially now that Santos just landed Baloy. I sure would like to see Felipe Baloy bounce on Pardo or Cabañas
Yeah, the Baloy move was a bit surprising given the other names that were floated about. Still shocked that Chaco wound up at Cruz Azul, they should be a handful next season. Should be some fun matches to watch in a few weeks.
Wasn't Fish Sticks on the bench at the end?? I don't recall him playing at all in the playoffs. he might be gone before Puebla shows up here, or maybe not. it will be a pleasure to boo his ass if he does come.
Pescadito had a nagging recurring injury that kept him on the bench for the 1st leg of the playoff. Don't remember if it was a knee, an ankle or his vagina. He should start in Interliga (at least 1 of the games).
they were saying on the FSC-Espanol WCC broadcast that 'Chaco' cried when told he was leaving Pachuca. dude's a legend there.
4 five min highlight clips of the matches For Saturday,the crowd was small for the Atlante vs Tecos match, but the main event of America and Santos didn't disappoint as the quality of play was very apparent between the two sides. The crowd also swelled 3x as it was mostly a pro-America crowd. Bring a spanish speaking friend and take in the atmosphere and get all of the heckles translated. it was definitely part of the highlights for me.
So what can I expect of Jaguares-Puebla and Monterrey-Tigres UANL? Would have been cool to go Saturday. Seemed like the games were good.
The crowds were very bad in Frisco unless they weren't on TV side. But it looked like Rayados fans came out in force more than Tigres ones. I do hope it's 20K for the Monterrey game on Wed. Maybe I'll bring my camcorder instead of my bb.
Yeah, I'll be sure to check it out on Wednesday. I haven't gotten a beer shower and been insulted in Spanish since the US-Mex 2-2 draw at Reliant.
And for those who want to know what's new or at least new to me, check out the menus I'm definitely getting elote en vaso or a pupusa
something tells me you weren't a blameless participant. i'm just sayin' from your posts..... btw, 'el pescadito' Ruiz look good today for Puebla. 2 of the 4 goals.
They used to sell some churros in 2006 that were pretty good but they got rid of them. The concessions at Robertson could use some variety.

www.hinchatv.com is covering this tournament too... you can check the website for interviews with the players at the airport and after last saturday game.

You think that's a permanent thing or just maybe for interliga? If they're trying to impress the Mexican teams they need to take the stuff up into the stands to sell them. And open a full bar in the bleachers.
Anyways; I was given tickets for 221 or 225, I forget. but that's too high up for me, I might seek to buy tickets in 109 or where La Adiccion will be at. who else is going??
exactly! in a game with no considerable stops in play, concessions should come to you. perhaps in the new Sugarland stadium.
Those better be some damn good pupusas and elote en vaso for those prices. Are they going to have some curtido too?
