Kevin W. Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 So we should sell out the integrity of the game, then? Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (CHL - 2018 Orr Cup Champions) Chicago Rivermen (UBA/WBL - 2014, 2015, 2017 Intercontinental Cup Champions) King's Own Hexham FC (BIP - 2022 Saint's Cup Champions) Portland Explorers (EFL - Elite Bowl XIX Champions) Real San Diego (UPL) Red Bull Seattle (ULL - 2018, 2019, 2020 Gait Cup Champions) Vancouver Huskies (CL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corvus Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 I'd like to complain about the officiating, but honestly, the Whitecaps have bigger problems. Like resorting to out of work old Scottish players for DP's. We aren't exactly fishing in the deepest talent pool there. At the very least they need to get rid of miller. A DP striker who doesn't score is a waste of money. And tactically, sitting back as much as they did was just inviting disaster. They pretty much conceded two thirds of the field for the whole second half. The Caps were rolling along quiet well before all the personnel shuffling they did. Sometimes, I think coaches and managers just outsmart themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrySmalls Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Zinedine Zidane, meet Andy Najar.That was such a childish reaction to the initial yellow card by Najar. Its unfortunate that DCU is playing with 10 men on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 True, but it's hard to compare the two given the relative quality of play. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosrs1 Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 True, but it's hard to compare the two given the relative quality of play.What does the quality of play have to do with the duration of the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 If we're going to justify a long season by offering the Prem as an example of a league with a similarly long season, the quality of play in those seasons is fair game. Longer seasons mean you have to have a deeper bench, among other things. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Freaking Najar. Unbelievable reaction. Kids only 19 so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt but now we dont get him for the 2nd leg in NJ. That was a wild game all around.

Throwing the ball at the ref is not the smartest idea out there. Better hope DC has a plan for Leg 2. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I think you might see Lewis Neal at RB. Andy is only there because of an injury to Daniel Woolard and hes still not ready to come back.Anyway SKC vs Dynamo was as advertised, a physical battle all over the field. SKC better figure it out at home, theyre in real trouble.

BrySmalls Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 MLS Season way too long.It lasts basically the same amount of time as European leagues.EPLMid-August through Mid-MayMLSEarly March through early DecemberMLS needs to develop a better schedule of incorporating 34 matches per club into a seven month season. Take D.C. United's 2012 monthly schedule for example:March - 4 matchesApril - 5 matchesMay - 6 matchesJune - 3 matchesJuly - 2 matchesAugust - 6 matchesSeptember - 5 matchesOctober - 3 matchesThere's no reason, other than money, to start a regular season on March 10 and have it stretched until October 27. I would like to see the following changes for 2013**:March - 3 matches (beginning March 16)April - 5 matchesMay - 6 matchesJune - 6 matchesJuly - 5 matchesAugust - 5 matchesSeptember - 4 matches (ending by September 22).I could provide actual dates and whatnot; however, I envision that the regular season would end in mid to late September with the playoffs beginning the following weekend and concluding a month later.*Note: This schedule is in the event that a club doesn't qualify for either the CCL or USOC.
