    It just shows how unprepared and unfocused this team is right now, and that's all on the coach. Either for not getting them ready and/or for picking the wrong players to put on the field.

    Can you release a player DURING a game?

    Gibbs off at his full sprint speed, seriously we are down by two, get your ass off the field and quit time wasting like we are ahead.

    Ballouchy took the kick long before the other players could have been expected to be ready. Again, if anyone's not focused, it's Ballouchy.

    For me, the bigger point to come out of that kick: how many goals have we scored off free kicks this year? 1? 2?

    With the DC result our only hope with a loss is that both Dallas and NE lose. In that case FSL would be the 7th team and Colorado would be 8th regardless of the size of the loss, DC would be the odd man out of the tiebreaker and finish 9th.

    If NE or Dallas tie the tiebreakers go against us and obviously if either wins they pass us, leaving at most one playoff spot which FSL would get (or none if they both win).

    At this point FSL is in the playoffs unless both Dallas and NE win.

    Right, which means he either wasn't properly prepared or shouldn't have been on the field.

    And Mehdi's responsible for preparing himself as much as Smith is responsible for preparing him.

    Smith's error is for keeping him on the pitch still after that kick, not for keeping him on before then. Considering our lack of attacking players at the moment, I understand why Smith's keeping him on, as much as I think replacing him with Kirovski would be a ********ing upgrade right now.

    Which would mean much more to me if it was the beginning of the season and not the end. Lets face it, Ballouchy pulling a stunt like that isn't exactly a surprise.

    When has he done it before?

    And you're moving the goal posts, so give up.

    Based on what the FSC bozos are saying, sounds like DC and Salt Lake are temporarily in and we are eliminated should the 2-0 stand.

    Is this true?

    Last season I yelled at Beckerman to wash his f***ing hair and he heard me. It was one of the most satisfying moments. Clearly, he didn't listen though.

    Desperate for some goals, GS brings on..........Noonan ..... LOL !!! That fact is all you need to know about how crappy this franchise is.

    I honestly have seen Under 12 teams with more offensive creativity than the Crapids.

    I know its not the first time I've seen him screw up a free kick like that, but I don't have a list to reference.

    And how exactly am I moving the goalposts? Ballouchy is not prepared to play this game and shouldn't be on the field. That's why I'm questioning Smith, just like what I said at the start of this discussion.

    No, in a 3-way tie between those 3 FSL wins (regardless of how much they win by) and Colorado is second. If Dallas and NE lose both Colorado and FSL are in.

    And FSL makes it 3-0.

    3-0. Season over. Please fold this sorry excuse for a franchise now. Jeff Plush is an idiot.

    So why did the two idiots on FSC state that DC still has a chance?

    As of right now both FSC and Colorado are in. if NE and Toronto loose we are both in.
