Rockstar Matt Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Let’s effing go! Miller was sensational, Rossi’s goal was spectacular and Vela was a good calming presence for LAFC. Looked like the best player on the field. And I thought for sure Seattle was going to score in the last 20 minutes. So much possession in the final third. LAFC’s defense is going to have to get better. We’re lucky to have gotten a shutout. I’ll take it. 3 points and now onto RSL.

It was a good win for LAFC....but they were playing half a Seattle time that's already played two competitive games this season and has another one on Wednesday. And is down it's top two scorers. And, TBH, I'm surprised Frei played today. But, yes, congrats LAFC for its first MLS win. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jer15 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I really don't see this holding up. I'm not a lawyer but I could see MLS using the fact that it's a single entity league and that league is headquartered outside of Ohio as a loophole. That or they award FC Cincinnati an expansion team and say "look, Ohio isn't loosing a team". They could even say they are doing the whole thing that was done with the Browns. "The team name is staying in Columbus and you have x years to find an ownership group and we'll give you ""back"" your team but these player are moving to an expansion team in Austin". Don't get me wrong, I hope it does work.

I hope they keep up the crap job they've done so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Wolf Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Just move the team to Little Rock. They pretend it's a great sports town (it's not) and the city leadership tends to be weirdly arrogant in all negotiations which in our case usually leads to things moving across the river to North Little Rock. Stick the Crew in Little Rock for a bit and even Precourt will wise up and figure out a real landing zone for the team and stop screwing around.

TheRicSlick Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 Sad day for Liga MX. I do like the increased competitiveness in those Champions League games, though. América might be our only hope, but hopefully Chivas and Tigres can play better on their own soil. Xolos is cooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corvus Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I think the new CONACAF competition is a great idea. Using the same format as UEFA makes sense, the idea is to raise the level of the weaker countries. I highly doubt USA/Mex would ever be bad enough to get relegated out of the top league. Not qualifying for a world cup is one thing, but they'd have to be worse than 10+ other nations in the region to get relegated. That isn't happening.
