  1. mlsnet.com works for you guys? It will not even open for me (or people in my area apparently). I pay for mlsnet.tv for nothing.

  2. Steve, if they can’t fill a 12,000 seat baseball park, I’m not sure if they can fill any stadium. Having said that, the Cauldron looks like it’d be a fun place to watch a match. Too bad it’s wasted on a lot of apathy from the general public in KC.

  3. Is the KC game on TV anywhere? I’ve got a pretty robust cable package and might get it, but I have my guide limited to just some favorite channels and didn’t see it in the guide anywhere.

    I did see DC about to tank against Pachuca, tho.

  4. This is an awesome midweek soccer night. Two CONCACAF Champions Cup games and a 4 goal (at half) MLS game.

    I wonder what the poor baseball fans are doing tonight.

  5. I’m loving the MLS action. Its basically becoming an addiction. In what other sport could I be entertained by watching a team from Kansas City play New England. Mansally and Nayassi are impressive, similar to Dane Richards.

  6. Based on how the stadium looks they’re probably describing the table that KC gave tehm in the pressbox (ie a tool shed in the parking lot).

  7. Marinelli is acting like a petulent child.

    Anyone else watching on mlslive.tv and enjoy the announcers accidently leave their mic’s open during the last break? I wish they said something they would have really regretted.

    If you don’t have mlslive.tv, get it! It’ll be the best 20 bucks you spend this season. Unless you sign a player to a development contract with it.

  8. Is anyone else who is watching the mlsnet.com stream supremely enjoying the ridiculous talk from the commentators at the half??? All that down time, behind the scenes info we could never want to know? “Is that hot chocoloate? MMMMMM Boy” or “Is my tie straight? Is it straight? Alright.” ETC. Awesome.

  9. LOL…if I were to listen to the official MLS website, I would think the score is 3-0 at the half…how ridiculous is that???

  10. Cristman has been fairly quiet. The Revs speed on the outside- especially Khano Smith- has been the difference for me. Also, Marinelli looks really frustrated and López is barely getting any of the ball.

  11. Trying to figure out MLS teams early in the season is impossible.

    I think I’m picking San Jose, RSL, Toronto and Columbus to win thsi weekend.

  12. I’ll put some money down that Nyassi won’t be in a Revolution jersey for more than 2 full seasons. Masally might be around a little longer, but they’ll be off to Europe before too long.

  13. Nyassi is a player. People jumped off the bandwagon after last Thursday but he was definitely New England’s most dangerous player that night. Color me impressed (even if he didn’t have to do anything on the goal).

  14. 1-1 after a PK is rightflully awarded on a late tackel about half a step insided the box.

    On the replay, Arena says the officiating wass great and that the advantage rule was give there and that the whistle was blown once KC did score a goal. The only problem is the ref blew his whistle before the shot was taken which ended up hitting the post.

    What a joke (both the commentary and the ref who got lucky the shot hit the post and was played out by NE).

  15. CAC, I know, I know. You’d think OnGoal would get sick of losing lots of money. But instead they go out and spend a lot. Too bad the franchise wasn’t in a place where the fans would support the league a little more.

  16. in fairness to the crowd the yankees are in town (usually a good draw) and the game is still going on though I see a rain delay in the near future

  17. You’re outta luck Nic, with the new owners its not MLS’s decision anymore. The owners would have to sell or decide to move and it sounds like they don’t have that in their plans.

  18. Attempted clearance from the set piece bounced off of Jewsbury. Castro curled the ball into a tough spot for the Wizards.
