    I have missed the last 2 Crew home games but am interested to see if there's a change there as well.

    When we play the Fire it's a lot of "Fuck Chicago! Piss on the Fire!"

    Also "We hate Chicago, we hate the Red Bull's too (fuck you), we hate DC United, but Columbus we love you"

    and

    "Build a bonfire, build a bonfire with Toronto on top, put Chicago in the middle, and we'll burn the fucking lot"

    Portland does the last one with Seattle and Vancouver. Fits well with us being the timbers.

    I've noticed a number of songs I hear on most national MLS broadcasts.

    They've done a few of older songs:
    Just a Friend by Biz Markie
    Oh baby Crew
    You got what I need
    And it's never gonna end
    And it's never gonna end

    500 Miles by the Proclaimers
    I would walk 500 Miles
    And I would walk 500 more
    Just to be the fan who walked a thousand miles
    To fall down at Crew’s door

    Even as an OCSC fan I can acknowledge that was a great match tonight. Could've ended 4-3 either way.

    2 Sporting fun facts:

    1) They've collected a total of 36 out of their potential last 42 points at home. 11-0-3.

    2) It won't last, but their current .33 GAA would shatter the MLS record of .79 (SKC in 2012).

    Yup had a couple really bad let offs.

    Bendik also played a Jozy breakaway perfectly. The combo of he and Seb are lethal.

    My nephew plays soccer (he's 11) and at their game on a Saturday one of the dads just collapsed and passed away.

    Columbus Crew heard about the story and reached out to the coach to see if they could host the team and honor the family on the field.

    Really love this organization

    Would like to see a replay but NE got a yellow for a foul breaking up a counter, looked to me like that's all he was trying to do and misjudged it because he got him around the neck.

    Berhalter was pissed and got himself sent off though

    "So do I understand correctly that USA has NEVER won the World Cup?"
    "Yes"
    "I just don't understand how that's possible"

    After Minnesota United benched Dimidov who they are paying ~$500K to be completely terrible and traded for Burch/Cronin their defense has played pretty well. Their offense has also been fairly strong. Hard to believe Christian Ramirez was stuck in the NASL. He can play an could get a Gold Cup call-up.

    West is worst than the East for first time in forever and Atlanta has a game in hand, but both Atlanta and Minnesota are sitting on 11 points.
