Jairo Arrieta, their new Costa Rican, has been doing well for them. I mean, he's no Michael Orozco Fiscal, but he looks dangerous. (Also, sorry for the copy-and-paste goof in the GD above. The numbers should be reversed between the two teams.)
Columbus @ Houston, all-time: 07/04/06 HOU 1-1 CLB 08/25/07 HOU 1-1 CLB 08/02/08 HOU 2-0 CLB 04/21/09 HOU 1-1 CLB 07/10/10 HOU 0-0 CLB 06/18/11 HOU 0-2 CLB That's 1-1-4 with 5 goals scored and 5 allowed. Just about as even as you can get.
we will destroy them this time around. they cant handle our athleticism or our wide speed. 3-0 Dynamo Boniek,Carr,Ching
I wonder if Ching is reconsidering his retirement now that he's playing the Dikembe Mutombo role. He said he's never felt "fresher" in his career.
dude-he's done at the end of the year. He's the kind of guy that would call Dom, and say, I'm done. No presser or anything. Kinda reminds of Messier that way. We'd induct him to the Oven Rack, and he'd probably be too shy to show up-not his style.
Let's give them a moment of respect for Kirk Urso , then get to business. I see this going down as a one sided 2-0 win for the boys in Orange. Brad will get one with our Honduran will net his second. Also I predict I will be going into the office on Monday with a severe hang over. You can take one of those predictions to the bank!
reading that Huguain might play. in one article he is compared to Scholletto and then in same article he himself says we both play different games. So i dont know what he will add. Looks like a guy with good possession and passing that does not score much but sets up goals.
Did Boniek play last night, and if he did, how did he do? I've been too busy to check, back to school sux. I thought he didn't have a particularly good game against NY, I'm not sure why. I imagine they were defending him well, but some of it looked to be his own fault. It's ok, he was due a slightly off day....
boniek did play. 67 mnts or so i think i read. no idea how effective he was. a real chance at 6 points this week. with 4 games in 12 days, we need to score early and let our D and the heat do the rest. expect Cbus to press early and fast, trying to catch our slow center D off guard. don't think it will happen, but it's been done to us before. a 1-0 at the half score or better should be enough to secure the deal. Clark isn't going to go the full 90 so it will be interesting to see if Dom pulls him at the designated 60 mnt mark, or if he will play it by ear.
Rumor on the news about game being moved to saturday. My dad insists. I don't think so anyone else heard any of this talk?
something about heavy rain but apparantly my dad got it from spanish news. you know how reliable spanish television is
Maybe after the weather on that channel the sports guys said something like "maybe they should reschedule the Dynamo game", something like that and your dad heard it wrong. On some stations they are saying Sunday will be very rainy going into Sunday night. Other stations are holding back.
Why does every team have to trot out their new DPs against us? We've got Boniek. They're doomed. Speaking of Boniek, he'll be on ESPNDeportes at 4 today. Too bad I don't get it anymore.... http://espndeportes.espn.go.com/sportsnation/deportes/chat/_/id/44903/chat-de-la-mls?cc=3888 I keep editing this post, but I'm confused. From the HoustonDynamo tweet I thought it was on the network, but looking at the link, which I didn't do earlier, it looks like an online chat, which would be better.
No chance of the game being changed. The Astros have home games on Saturday night and again early on Sunday afternoon.
That's why I'm involved in my second 59 Doubleheader of the year! Astros followed by the Dynamo!!!! I ********ing love this city!
1:05PM bro, we're gonna meet around noon by Home Plate Bar and Grill... *I guess this has become an open invite for everybody* https://www.facebook.com/events/109098355904613/
