MLS Season Thread 2017 - Page 13 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

Huh? That's the point. The Minnesota field comes across terribly on tv. It's amateur hour and hard and watch. But that used to be the norm in MLS. Now there are a lot of great SSS and new teams are being required to build one. Some really great stadiums that come across beautifully on tv in this league now. Wasn't the case a decade ago

Gotcha. I hadn't watched a Minny home match yet and thought with your previous wording that you were saying it's a great atmosphere there compared to the MLS of old. Carry on.

MLS of old would be lucky to play in front of a crowd a third that size. So I guess it was.

no idea where that VWFC performance came from last night, but guess i'll take it

still obv no where close to being sold on them

tho based on a half hour from Tchani, maybe that trade will work out

have been saying forever that Laba is a great DM, but he needs a far more b2b partner, because he isn't that

64' Tony Tchani on, Andrew Jacobson off
67' Matías Laba, Assisted By: Fredy Montero
87' Matías Laba

what is this i don't even

(still kinda bummed out bc Manneh is a lot of fun)

MLS probably has the best website of any of the professional. So neat, organized and easy to use.

Didn't know Vancouver came back and won last night. Just looked up the score and could watch any of the goals right there on the website (not sure if this cuz I'm a Live subscriber but don't think so) and all I had to do was watch like a 15 second commercial. Really well done

RSL and LAG are dumpster fires. even Minnesota is laughing at them.

not sure PORT-NE is going to be the competitive matchup ESPN was hoping for.

That might be the best sideline quote I've ever heard.

Porter: "Tell New England we're not making any changes."

Then New England equalizes.

Lol dallas, to go out on a goal like that. Missed about a third of the game, but from what I saw 2-1 would have been a fair result.

In a story as old as time, Dallas missed a few chances early in the game and an MLS team just can't do that in Mexico.

basically impossible that Vancouver turns around the 0-2 deficit tonight, but at least they're ****ing with Tigres by playing a night game in the rain with the roof open just to lol

Tie still alive with 30 minutes to go. Caps couldn't have asked for much more here.
