Oh wait...

On that same note, that might be the first time I've seen 90 minutes of bunker ball. You could tell they came in with the mentality of having a 2-0 lead and not wanting to lose it. The CRaps had 10 behind the ball in the first half, 11 behind in the second.

To any CRaps fans out there, next time you come to town please come to play soccer. That cowardly display you put on last night was insulting to yourselves and the game.

Well we realized we could take the night off and still win, so we did. Next time we come to town if you put a "ReAL" team on the field, we'll be happy to play a better game.

Hopefully, the King of Goals will return next season in full health.

BTW Did Mathis do anything of note?


Mathis ran a lot, especially in the first period. At times in the second period it seemed like he was determined to ram the ball down Tarley's throat until he could finally finish one off. Too bad that by the time Jamie came on, Clint was tired, wasn't attacking as much, and couldn't throw as many balls up front as he did for Tarley. Another case of Jamie coming on 20 minutes too late (Section 36 did the "Ja-mie, Ja-mie" cheer several times between minutes 50 and 70!).

While I'm not a fan of anyone throwing missiles onto the field, when the CRapids go to the northeast corner to taunt the Loyalists, do they get what they're asking for? An ethical dilemma. . .

who's Rocky Mountain, and why is he letting you hold his cup?

YoYoMa..

You may have the cup, (only hardware ever) but your Front Office hates your ass!

Jaime 20 minutes late? I am thinking Jaime was a whole half late. I like Tarley and all, but..... the guy just cant score.

The linesman would have found a way to call 'offside'.

Dear EneMa, King of the Krapids, the worst non-expansion team in the league:

So? He's right. I never denied it. I believe if you look at a post of mine from before the game I ranked the RMC second priority this year to the MLS Cup, a opinion I heard a number of players express....last night, while we were celebrating on your pitch. 😉 It may not mean a lot, but we have it and you don't
