You mean that skinny, anorexic, air bushed thing? She needs to eat something. As a wise man once said... only a dog wants to chew on a bone. (like that's gonna stop anyone from staring at her!)
Damn... here I am in Boston, and I can't go to the game because I have a meeting, rehearsal, and a problem set due tomorrow. Oh well. At least I got to MLS Cup 2002.
43:00 Beckerman sent off for tackle from behind. Might've been a harsh call, Kyle didn't get him that hard... Too bad, I was impressed with Beckerman's play expecially his passing and on-the-ball skills.
Halftime: 0-0 From what I've seen, it looks as the Rapids have been good in the build-up but have gotten few good chances. I think the only chance well-taken so far was Chungy's 30-yarder in injury time. The Revs have a great crossing game tonight. They are bound to get a goal if their crosses continue to be spot on. I'm a bit disappointed in Carrieri's game so far, nothing has gone his way yet. Spencer is trying all kinds of flicks and dummies, hopefully he can connect in the 2nd half.
I agree Beckerman's call was harsh, but he did commit a foul from behind. It was a stupid play and he has hurt his team. I wouldn't mind the call if it was called consistently. If it was, though, we would see 2 or 3 red cards a game. Henderson is playing one of the worst games I've seen in MLS. I wish I could have reached into the screen and smacked him. When the ball was in the box, his team mates were frantically defending and he's standing there with his arm up calling for an offsides, damn, play the game or get the he!! off the field! SPENCER... PLAY THE BALL AND STOP THE DAMN DUMMY's. We've had a good amount of control though and have defended well. We'll be lucky to get of town with 1 point.
54:00 Kamler sent off, another harsh call for studs-up. Wes Hart is lucky that Kamler just missed his ding-ding...
I'm just following it on MLSnet's matchtracker... so, is Alex Prus really card happy tonight? Or is it really that rough?
No, I think the game has been played with class. Only a few ugly plays. I think the ref is just establishing control, and making up for the harsh 1st-half sending off... 60:00 Spencer really close from 20-yards...
The first red card was kind of harsh. I guess I can see it, but the second red was REALLY harsh. Kamler came in kind of high, but there was no intent in it. My vote: Card Happy. He's throwin around the ref weight.
And then there was nothing! Amazing how a football feed can be crystal clear from the middle of a hurricane, but....oh it's back.
Damn satellites... At least that Roberto Carlos commercial with the kid unplugging the Pepsi machine was really funny...
Bonus soccer... Geez, was Carrieri trying to get ejected or what??? First he trips whats-his-face, then he forearms another Rev 60-seconds later... WTF ?? Borchers was a one-man wall in that last 10-minutes, ehhh?
Borchers is man of the match thus far. Of course it is difficult to write off Garlick after that stop.
The second red card was crap, and so was the PK. This ref does suck. Red to Pablo. Oh, but other than that, this game has been played well. Both teams are attacking hard and playing good soccer, for the most part. Twellman hasn't looked great but the only time he gets the ball from his team are when he's running from the right side and they just send it behind him, so he has to retreat to the wing and cross or pass back. You'd think they'd stop doing that to the leader goal scorer in the league.
Ok ...maybe Garlick MOTM now... Not so sure about that yellow for Mastroeni. The ball seemed to be getting away from Leonard (why else would Leonard be sliding?) Either way not a smart decision by the National teamer.
After watching the replay, Pablo's second yellow looked like a legit call. I dunno why he went from a decent one-foot slide to a two-boot-studs-up tackle...
