Needschat Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 This just in Red Bull New York to change name to Choking, NJWow. It's an ending like they had which makes me believe in the "Curse of Caricola."And it really sucks now in the East. The two most woe-be-me teams in MLS (Revolution, Red Bulls) are ousted in overtime goals in their respective Game 2s. So the Eastern Conference Finals match-up is now Houston-Kansas City; good in paper, but made up of two relatively insufferable teams. I kind of wished for a New York-New England match-up, to see whose long-suffering fanbase would have a shot at retribution at MLS Cup. But nope, the fundamental-happy Dynamo and the suspect-play Sporting make up the conference final for the right coast.I'm also starting to realize that the Dynamo might be the St. Louis Cardinals of Major League Soccer.Ehhh....Red Bull doesn't have fans and I'd hardly call New England fans long-suffering.Yes NYRB does have fans. Oh what could have been.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbadefense1990 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 So the 2-year reign by the Galaxy comes to an end in Utah. Gotta hand it to those hard-working players from RSL, playing those set pieces perfectly, all while managing that heinous wind. Finally, they get a meaningful win at Rio Tinto.Oh well, it appears as if the Galaxy are finally exhausted from these current run of victories. Maybe now, there will be some hunger and motivation for 2014. Until then, thanks for the cup reign, Galaxy!And for the record, this loss just makes LA look very stupid for giving away trading Magee for the apparent-bum Robbie Rogers.

Foxxtrot44 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 C'mon, Portland. RSL has proven they can't win cups at Rio Tinto...so take that home field advantage! I HATE THIS TIMELINE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norva Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 It's just hard to call a fan base long suffering when they win in every other sport. I'd wager 90% of Rev fans at minimum also support one or all of the Patriots/Red Sox/Bruins/Celtics thus it's not easy to feel super bad for them.

-kj Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I'm happy the Revs are out just so there's no chance of hearing their terrible announcers again this season. Painful.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I've seen Rev games on TV. They don't have fansI'm ready to call it good on Sigi Schmid.

Maybe Babe Ruth's ghost learned how to play soccer and was tired of torturing Boston's baseball team. Maybe he finally let go of his grudge with the Red Sox and started one with the Revolution out of spite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they've had crippling losses in sudden-death OT (2002), FIFA OT (2005) and penalty kicks (2006), despite the fact that they scored 1st in the FIFA OT format (if it were pre-2002, the Revs would have won the cup).

TFoA Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Today's the day for the Monster Truck Extravaganza NASL Soccer Bowl!As happy as I am for the revived Cosmos to actually A: Exist & B: Be successful on the field...man, after the Falcons and the Braves' playoff calamities, I'm pretty hungry for some sort of trophy to finally be awarded to a team in this city. Seems like it should be a pretty awesome atmosphere at the park, as the Silverbacks have added plenty of seats so the place should be rocking tonight. Can't wait for this one.If you aren't gonna be there, it'll be on ESPN3. Hopefully it'll be a great showcase for the league! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Can't wait. Seems strange to be going back to Atlanta after playing there last week (not like the rosters will be the same), but hopefully this time the Cosmos will get to wear their proper whites.

-kj Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 NASL does have an obsession with teams wearing away kits on the road, but they seem to ease that in finals.

Gothamite Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 I presumed it was a Silverbacks thing - last week they wore their road whites. If they're wearing their red-and-black shirts, I'd hope the Cosmos would be able to wear white. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

TFoA Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Silverbacks busted out a new all-black kit (which was a fitting look considering that they asked the fans to wear black.) Too bad it didn't result in a victory. Congrats to the Cosmos. They were the better team tonight, they've been the better team since they entered the league in the Fall season, and they fully deserved the trophy. Especially so after the goal that Senna scored, which would have been a goal in a lot of other leagues. Once again, congrats to them and their supporters.As for the Silverbacks, maybe next year? I'm still proud of the club for making it this far and for all the steps that they've taken ever since Wynalda came in as the Director. Hopefully this won't be the last time we see the Silverbacks in the Soccer Bowl/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyk33 Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Marcos Senna is freaking beastly in the NASL!!Also big credit to the Borough Boys and La Banda for putting on a great show themselves to support their team. BTW I wish they could have worn those blue jerseys sometime during the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
