You'll notice mk_27 in a bit more often than normal.
He joined tBG officially this morning after doing great work in the fanposts section for a couple of months now.

Anyone know of a stream?
I’m of course talking about non-navigable bodies of water here…but on an unrelated note, I would like to watch the game

Even the Union broadcasters know how bad the Eagles LBs are.

Really think Okugo’s been solid last 2 games, but thinking Adu comes on for Mapp at the 58’ mark & Torres comes on at 66’ for Amobi if we need a goal, Naka if we have a lead.
MK
minutes later..
adu and torres for okugo & paunovic. would love to see pfeffer for mapp by the end.
MK
maybe McInerny and move adu or torres back to Mapps spot

The only reason I know Adu is on the field
is when he is sprinting after a ball he has no shot at. His contract dictates that he should not be invisible like this

Valdes defensive headers are a thing of beauty
his offensive, not so much. Defense playing strong, need to keep it strong for 6 or 7 more minutes

That last play was an obvious miss there
but the Union settled for the draw when they stopped pushing forward. That’s bad coaching there. Our defense is good, but not so much that it can take barrage after barrage of shots and expect to come out unscathed. 1 point from a 3 point opportunity.

Nowak Cost Us
If the Union want to be considered a top-tier team, Peter needs to let them put poor teams like Chivas away. Parking the bus for the last 15 minutes or so was embarrassing. Now this puts a lot more pressure on us to perform in Seattle.
Immediate reaction is up.
Mostly a rant.
