BTW FSC is not showing ANY MLS games this season

 

[Bummy_JaB]

haha As a Tauraus I have to say I love the new Red BULLs kit. The only ting annoying is the big yellow sun in the middle but other than that it looks lovely. And WTF??? who the hell is showing MLS this season?????? ESPN show like 1 game. The league better find some TV time or it will go down the drain.

Imma watch DC vs chivas later and see if Adu still has it to make it big or just choke.

EDIT- That chivas DC game was real good. Freddy actually did quite well shoulda scored. But his set pieces are real nice. And he also created the space for the second goal. The kid looks much more mature and stronger than last season. I think Chivas got robbed of the goal but it was real hard to tell even after several replays whether the free kick went in. I think on the day though DC deserved the win.

Cant wait till see the Redbulls later on. Hope they dont dissapoint.

 

[Shiryu]

Yeah Chivas wasn't in top shape.

But you gotta understand, most of the players that were on the field had never played in the same team before. We still need alot of work, but is coming along.

I gotta give props to Bratley though, for sticking with the same line-up with all the rookies in it, for all the game.

Man, I'm gonna have to start betting on the Crew...to lose 3-1 every week. I'm pretty sure they'll do it 30 more times this season.

LA fail to win again grr, shame. Donovan seemed to be chucking himself to ground all game though.

Some cracking goals this week once more!

 

[Bummy_JaB]

Yes, the quality of the league is improving. The Redbulls vs New England was one hell of a match. Coulda gone either way. Pretty entertaining stuff for 0-0.

Goddamn Redbulls look real weak at the back. They are gonna have to be stronger in midfield if they want to finish in the top 3.

Just out of curiosity, why are you a fan of the Galaxy?

Wouldnt say I'm a fan, I like the MLS in general, and was on holiday in Cali the year it started ... kinda followed the Galaxy's results (on and off) since.

found this comp with this week's goals, and it made me realize two things:
MLS keepers suck, and Djorkaeff is still alive

Wow we get to see two games this week including the awesome amazing ~*Super*~ Classico woohoo

 

[$teauA]

Kansas City stay perfect with a 1-0 win at home against the Revs. FC Dallas trying to stay perfect in the west, they are currently tied 2-2 @ Colorado.

PS: I watched some of the RSL - Red Bulls game, great atmosphere in Salt Lake

 

[Bobby]

Man, Rob Stone is a racist. He's really making me cheer for Chivas.

He might as well just say 'wetbacks'.

 

[$teauA]

Haha Bobby

Man that was fun game to watch , not the highest quality of play but definitely very spirited and you could see the hate that the two teams have for eachother on the field. The play by Donovan on LA's second goal was world class :Bow:

Chivas do look A LOT better than last season though.
