SBI Stoppage Time: MLS Cup Preview from Soccer By Ives on Vimeo.

18,000 fans attended the CO championship game in 30 degree weather…
I salute you, sir!
The less pre-game attention or credit paid to the Rapids, the better!
I’ve always loved your editions of stoppage time (short lived as it may be, I hope stoppage time continues). Your insight is always incredibly on-point and succinct. I’m just an MLS/ US soccer fan with no team affiliation, but I don’t understand how you can preview the upcoming MLS Cup game without mentioning Casey and Cummings. It was your choice not to, of course, but I feel that forward tandem is worth talking about, considering a possible upset. Just my 2 cents. I don’t care who wins the game, but I’ll be watching, as always. And I’ll always be tuned in to SBI Stoppage Time as well. Keep up the good work. I find your knowledge and insight to be better than Alexi and Harkesey combined.
(SBI-It wasn’t as thorough a preview as we would have liked to have done, but given the time constraints we did what we could. Hopefully we keep doing them and keep learning as we go. Thanks for the input.)
This NY fan cares.
Should be a solid game.
In answer to Ives, Twellman took one too many blows to the head. They’re afraid of putting him in the spotlight again… literally. You saw DiCaprio in Inception; well that’s Twellman in 10 years.
we sold out our allotment in Toronto
i feel bad for ppl who purchased tickets for the final hoping to flip them. FCD or Col cant get ppl to show up to their game at home, forget about flying to Toronto
ives are you suggesting twellman should be on tv at mls cup? are you deaf or just plain dumb? he was god awful during the summer friendlies. he makes marcelo balboa sound good.
(SBI-I expect better from an SBI regular than “Are you deaf or just plain dumb.” That’s lame Kat. Not saying Twellman is a better overall analyst than McManaman. My point is that after hearing Macca TRY to talk about American soccer it’s clear he knows NOTHING about American soccer. Maybe it’s just me, but I’d rather hear the less polished guy who actually knows about the league he’s talking about, and the final he’s covering, than some Brit who sounds smooth but is really just speaking in empty cliches because he’s simply not informed about the league.)
Just like the two times Dallas beat CO during the regular season…
Battle of the two unsponsored teams! Maybe those jerseys won’t look so empty following the cup…
I was worried for a sec too after his prediction…but then i remembered FCD has Hartman, John, and Ferriera
Money in the bank
Never seen jersey shore but i bet Ives would kick Julios @$$
Thank you Ives,
I think that Ives has gotten EVERY game/series wrong so far in the playoffs.. lets continue that trend! GO RAPIDS!
Julio looks alot like Ives
Ives did you ever watch Jersey Shore season 1 because you look a lot like Julio from the t-shirt shop
(SBI-I could see that, I won’t front, but you best believe I would have dropped some MMA elbows on the clown who punched Snookie instead of just standing there. ha ha.)
Go Rapids! Underdogs they might be, it’s a solid team and has speed to match Dallas. Should be an exciting and even game even if ther are no designated players.
don’t be so bitter, there’s always next year for the sounders to disappoint you 😉
Who cares, it’s Rapids vs Dallas…
