ES Soccer Thread

Looking at these other soccer only facilities, I hope DC and United can get together and get a nice 20,000 seat facility. And with a nod to history, I think the seat overhang should have the wave that the RFK overhang does.

I feel you. I was basically shaking a minute ago

So do we get another home game against Houston?

If I am not mistaken, it is another 2 leg round.

Pope you gotta come to the next game!

Titi is my dude, but I hate it had to be him.

I'm in shock that he didn't take that last freekick. I had resigned myself that they were going to even it up at that point.

we are planning to be there as far as I know. I will be there at least. The stars have aligned with my exam being the week before the game!

Never mind, Skins play on 11/18. Too many beers.

[Popeman38]

According to the WaPost, the DCU game is now scheduled for 11/18 at 3:00PM - right in the middle of the Skins-Eagles game. Why do professional sports leagues insist on scheduling our pro teams at the same time? Nats first ever playoff game? 3:00PM during a Skins home game. DCU's home leg of the ECF? 3:00PM during a Skins home game. They hate DC.

I thought it was at 4pm on 11/18??

I'll be honest, this DC United run has definitely softened the blow for me dealing with the Redskins death spiral this season.

Are you a STH Popeman? You should just sell those bad boys and come to DC United game

I am a STH, and I haven't missed a game in over 10 years. I don't know why, we have sucked for 80% of those years.

I will have to DVR the DCU game and watch it when I get home. The wife and kid don't care about soccer, but they love them some football.

I still don't understand how the game was 11/17 at 4:00PM when I went to bed last night and now is magically scheduled during a Skins game????

And look at that. MLS changed the start time again to 11/18 at 4:00 PM.

With 82 minutes gone, I was almost resolved that we'd lost the aggregate. I turn it off for a few minutes to check the Colts/Jags game, turn it back on and...."BOOM!" Goal, goal, goal. New York thought he was offsides, but replay showed the defender closest to the screen was 2 yards behind him.

Let's bring home our 5th cup at Home boys. Beat Houston and take on whoever is left.

LA-SEA in the west. I imagine LA comes out of the west.

[Skinz4Life12]

was it LA who took out San Jose? I thought San Jose was going to win the whole thing for sure

Yep. LA beat SJ 3-1 in San Jose in the second leg.
