This morning's post-gamery: Salt Lake Tribune: RSL can't make it 3 in a row Deseret News: RSL unable to contain Dynamo Houston Chronicle: Jaqua's hat trick carries Dynamo past RSL Team may be righting ship
Does anybody know where to find online highlights of the game? Its the first game I've missed all season and Ashe and Jacqua finally blow up. The MLS website doesnt have it I assume because it was HDNet televising the game. Which I find retarded if they cant post highlights and its their own league.
There's just something that sounds so wrong about saying that... Also, I stopped Jaqua's shot better than Rimando did last night.
I can't find ant either, maybe HDNET has the rights to the footage and won't provide it to MLS for free....
At halftime, they set up the 2 garbage bins in the goal and had 3 people shoot at it. Whoever got closest to the bin won a ball signed by the team. The bin was set up right in the middle of the goal so a straight kick would've put it close. The guy did a little run on to the ball and kicked it way wide to the left. The first 2 were right on the outside of the bin but still made it in to the net. His curved away from the goal as soon as he kicked it. Bad kick, but a funny job announcing.
Teh first goal shouldn't ahve been allowed. After that RSL only had a couple of shots and both of them went in. Lucky for them, bad luck for us, who kept shooting all night and made 4 of them. Oh, I was paying no attention to that, except I heard the guy say "remembeer, guy, it's not a putting green" and I thought that was funny.
I think my girlfriend thought I was crazy last night when I said that somebody needs to go down to the sideline official on the east end and tell him he needs to run with the play. There was a play that I could see was offsides and because he was standing near the midfield, he missed it. But MLS doesn't know how to call offsides anyway, so why do something right now?
I think he was trying to guess where the shot would go and cut it off. I think he felt that the shooter wouldn't have tried to beat him near post. Guessed wrong though.
They must ask the question of potential contestants, "Have you ever played soccer or kicked a soccer ball in your life?" "No? Well come with us..."
I forgot my favorite part of what happened yesterday. We go to the ticket window and walk over to the entrance that the supporter groups go through. Something they did over there that I've never had to do on the other side was take everything out of my pocket. I start pulling out my cell phone and keys and the guy looked relieved. He said to me "I thought you were pulling out a pistol." Yeah, I'm a bad, bad man. I carry pistols to the game in case the opposing team goalie tries to be cute and block shots.
Heh. OT: I saw on the Everton forum that I wasn't the only one worried about Howard slamming his hand against the crossbar. Just in time for ManU huh? He looked like he'll be able to play but he'll be hurting for a few days for sure.
Ugh, he hit his hand and I thought crap, he's out now. Hopefully his hand is fine cause we'll need him. I could've swore I saw an Everton away GK jersey for sale online earlier. I think that green jersey is awesome and would've loved to get that with Howard on the back. Maybe I'll be able to find one soon enough.
The couple that sit behind me always come in thru the west gate, and they have to empty their pockets. At one game the man had a pocket knife that he had to throw away, since they park in the $5 lot. They have highlights on the Fox Soccer Report if you can catch a replay, it's in the second half hour, it's the last of the MLS highlights.
I wanted Seitz to get in. Bradley needs to mix in some youth, aside from his son. Calling in Wolff when he could have played Altidore, he must have been drunk.
I thought the person responsible was the drunk guy who came down next to us and kept trying to start the wave, as soon as he go it almost going RSL scored, stupid wave.
RSCA_TEXAN It’s about time you recognize that Ashe has skills, he just needs to fine tune them. He did an awesome job assisted a couple of goals… And OBW My hat it’s better looking than yours!!! Much Love GO ORANGE!!!!!
Really. This just sums up what professionals are on staff at the Rob. You look suspect you gun carryin' evil man. You probably do look like a guy that will take a loaded weapon to a MLS match. You should earn the nickname "TRIGGER" from here on out.
