Portland Timbers vs. Columbus Crew in MLS Cup, 1pm - Game Thread

[julius]

Soccer should also have both teams line up and one person "hikes" the ball to a player. That player throws the ball to another player. Then that player runs to a zone at the end of the field. Once he gets inside that zone he should kick the ball, since that seems really important to soccer fans, and is given 6 pts for getting the ball in the zone at the end of the field.

I'm ok with them, in the future someday, making it so there's no such thing as a hand ball. Kind of like getting rid of goaltending.

The yellow players are way better at running into the green players and falling down.

When I was young I was very good at falling down, but no one told me I could have a career in soccer.

The Columbus Hardens?

Didn't you put that falling down skill to good use by becoming a drunk?

Yes, and it's been a long and successful career, but it doesn't always pay that well.

Gives you the feeling there's got to be another goal coming in this one... Hopefully by the Timbers!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

How long are soccer games?

 

[BBert]

I thought only the goalie could knock the ball out of the goal with his hand?

 

[julius]

How long are soccer games?

90 mins + stoppage

 

[julius]

All these crazy saves by the columbus goalie seem to make me feel the Columbus team will score.

 

[DUB]

Congratulations!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

We won!

 

[ripcityboy]

[julius]

Fuck yeah!

 

[BBert]

Where's the car burning party?

Thank you Goldman Sachs!

Flounder fans right now

Im sure they're all back on the Seashits bandwagon right now, and didn't realize there was a game today

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

I love the Timbers. Go Timbers!

 

[ripcityboy]

I'm just so proud for this City. We get shortchanged by those assh-les up North and aren't considered for major sports franchises. This City has a fandom that's unique. And we just showed that we can harbor a championship franchise, even if it's just soccer...


Oh and BTW, F-ck Seattle.

 

[BBert]

Timbers were the aggressor in the second half. Good for them!

 

[Strenuus]

I'm sure they'll be a vegan sage rager later to celebrate.

 

[riverman]

Awesome! Timbers did it!
