Open Sounders vs. Timbers gamethread

Tiny by BrianL on



7:20 kickoff on FSN, broadcast begins at 7:00 right after the Mariners postgame show. LL will be a blog divided during this game.

Here's where I apologize to everyone and admit that I now find soccer to be an incredibly fascinating and entertaining sport. All it took was getting our own MLS franchise for me to realize that. I may not know much about soccer, but it sure is fun to watch.

Also fuck Zach Scott.

I don't know.

They’re excited to get a team and they want to kick up the rivalry. I think it’s hilarious.

They're instigators

They will start shit and then whine about what horrible fans we are. Guaranteed.

One of the main concerns the ECS had travelling down there. TA were watching public ECS threads to see where the buses were going to end up in P*rtland.

I was sitting with ECS and I only saw one fight break out and four cops literally carried him away.

Outside the stadium it was mostly your typical PNW passive aggressive taunting but inside the atmosphere was absolutely electric. I’ll post some videos on FB soon but the closest thing that I can describe it to was Red Sox Nation at Yankee Stadium during the ALCS.

For those of you that were on the fence, I urge you to go the next time. I never thought anything could top a Seahawks game at Qwest but yesterday did. 2011 can’t come fast enough
