    Have you seen the highlights of the Metros-DC series? DC is playing some great soccer, and New England stands absolutely no chance against them. None. Sadly, even if we did make it through, I don't think we would have stood much of a chance against them either. All I'm trying to say is if our season wasn't over yesterday, it would have ended this Saturday. DC is playing too well to allow any other Eastern Conference team to go to MLS Cup.

    I'm going to disagree a bit. If we had made it on the strength of the PKs, we might have been in trouble but if we had made it on the basis of good play we'd have a good chance of beating DC. They have Nelson and Kovalenko suspended for the conference final and it would have been on our turf.

    And did we mention that Chicago didn't make the playoffs? That always makes me happy.

    I thought maybe this thread would be about how Columbus set another league first this weekend:

    For the first time in league history, the winner of the Supporter's Shiled failed to advance past the first round of the playoffs.

    Congratulations Crew!!!!

    I just came across some highly entertaining pictures, thought I might point them out to you:

    How long until Nick Garcia's sorry ass puts that up on ebay? That's the last jersey Donovan wore in MLS. Nicky's got a goldmine on his hands if Donovan becomes the player he could in Europe.

    Donovan, who says he's always looking for new challenges, tries it with his hands behind his back.

    That even beats that one photo of Razov kissing one of his teammates. Well done.

    I think I'll be putting that on my desktop. Laughing at Dono never gets old.
