    Another way to keep the St Louis hype train going.

    It's only hype if they stop winning. ;)

    Let them win on their own merit, no need to tilt the playing field.

    Considering one of our players was smacked in the chin in the last game, knocked to the ground, and no foul was even called, I would say: inconsistent. Not to mention that it appeared TT was grabbed around the neck and thrown to the ground and that was only a caution.

    By the book, can you justify that red? Sure. But then at least call fouls on the other head attacks.

    I see what you did there! :sneaky:

    Jon has a brother? (I checked, they don't seem to be directly related :))

    2-0 St. Louis. Come on Quakes, prove me wrong, but for better or worse I think we are too dependent on Monteiro to play effectively without him. I’d feel slightly better about it if Niko were available.

    "Since the beginning of last season, San Jose has just one win in 20 away games (six draws and 13 losses), which is tied with the Colorado Rapids for the fewest road wins during that period."

    Yep, we suck on the road. Hopefully this year will be a little better, but I'm not expecting any miracles. We will mostly suck again, hopefully a little less.

    He'd do fine, but I don't think there'd be any "crushing" happening :). I hope he gets a chance to play in the midfield again at some point before his career fades out.

    His career has faded out. What you mean to say is, I hope get gets a chance at midfield to try and resurrect his career that he never really had.

    I think she’s great!
    And she’s more critical of our team now that they aren’t her employers. I always want to hear Danielle!

    It'd be great to see Cade get off the hype train and onto the real deal train in this game.

    We have very good commentators tomorrow!

    They've been some of the best this year. While Followill/Slaton and Rogondino/Pearce are some of the worst reviewed.

    Slaton is calling the Galaxy Game. Her work during the Minnesota game was awful.

    St. Louis CITY SC vs. San Jose Earthquakes
    St. Louis are first in the league in tackles by a mile, as per TruMedia via StatsPerform, and second in the league in duels. They have played prettier soccer than I think a lot of folks expected, but never forget that they're built on Energy Drink Soccer physicality and directness (they have only eight passing sequences of nine-plus passes all year, which is the fewest in the league).

    The Quakes have got to be able to ride those challenges and win those physical duels. If you don’t, you lose.
