Maybe I've just been watching too much HD but the picture quality on Columbus - Colorado sucks. My MLSLive stream of DC-FSL looks better.
Is McDermott the one that just called LaBrocca by Mas-tree-oni? (I realize I'm having a hard time telling them apart due to the crappy video, but I assume somebody at the stadium can see the difference...)
On the Crew broadcast they just ran last year's Dick's Sporting Goods ad with Dawson and Mrs. Ben Olsen, featuring Christian Gomez in a Rapids uni and Dulio "no longer in MLS" Davino in Dallas hoops. Really professional.
Those who watched him "play" would argue that Davino was never in MLS......out to lunch/in left field/whatever....but hardly in MLS.
Back from the pub, Dallas is off the schnide and we've got Houston-NY going....lets see a good game. Oh and I've got a ton of money on Columbus to win...seriously they were almost an even bet at home against the Rapids.
They're also missing 4(?) players, including their best player, Chad Marshall. I'd make the bet too, but I can understand why the odds aren't great.
Twice, Max has referred to Pat Onstad - two time MLS GK of the year and winner of three MLS Cups and holder of the MLS record for lowest GAAA - as Cepero. Nice of Max to get his facts straight and know the key players. Once, OK, mistakes happen. But twice?
Cepero and Kamara collided heads and looks like Cepero is coming out and being replaced by undrafted rookie Alec Dufty.
Can't stand to see two heads go off of each like that. I wish soccer authorities could do somethign about it; I seem to see it more and more. Cepero out for Dufty.
