What did you think of Hudson, man he was a hoot to listen to. I want him to be there for the rest of our away matches (i think he'll only be there for the away matches). What a treat to listen to.

Was Hudson the annoying one, or the irritating one? 😉

Ouch,
I thought both did a tremendous job. Better than listening to the galaxy guys say El Pondo 13 million times.
Hudson is the best color guy out there from what i've heard so far. He makes an exciting game sound even better.

I was actually talking about those damn Galaxy guys. :p

I love his Scottish brogue. I had to really concentrate on what he was saying through. Is it Ron Hudson? I have a friend in Newport Beach named Ron Hudson, but I know he's not the same guy.

Ron was the former coach of DC and the Fusion and is such a joy to listen to. "Brilliant" "Beautiful Ball!" He did the Argentina Brasil game earlier in the week and was just fun to listen to.

RSL looked somewhat decent for the first time since Chivas. The D played very well minus Pope (get better quickly) and Pierce (same goes for you). Behnke had a good game and Kamler in the back played very well.

Kreis should stay as an attacking forward in the midfield.

Watson, where to begin. My new favorite player on the squad. He came and played hard, he was everywhere. He was making perfect passes, he was all up in Reggie Miller's Sister's face (jones) and just was everywhere. He was on the near side, he was on the far side. He played with heart, emotion and it showed. I say start him and give us a spark at the 0 minute rather than wait for the 20-60th minute.

Nice job Jamie!

I still think we need to get this team to gel. they just aren't reading each other yet and that's the hard part, getting them to think like each other.

DJ had another great match between the pipes and the ref's had a crappy match calling off sides (there were two RSL run's they called off sides and they weren't, and Ron just went crazy on the refs - funny as hades to listen to).

New chant for LA Galaxy when our team is struggling" Heart, heart, heart, heart!"

Loyal1, were you at the match? I think I saw you (or someone that looked like you) behind the goal when Daunte missed his header.


Concur with your comments. I wanted the win, of course, and thought we deserved a tie, but good stuff by the lads in this game.

Watson should start. He has what everyone says we've been lacking--effort. Get Watson and Tiger on the field at the same time.

And we could use Pope back, although I thought the back four did well. Behncke had his best game, and Akwari shook off Ramirez' chippy play to shut the guy down.

I believe Hudson's first same is "Ray," and although some find him annoying I like the way he calls a game. Ray does games all around the country--he did the color commentary on the RSL-SJ game for the Quakes broadcast team. Sort of a free agent broadcaster. He's also on GolTV.

I don't know if you guys already addressed this or something, but I watched the game on Fox Sports West, and our commentators were apart of the "Landon Donvon Fan Club" I was just waiting for one of them to do a backflip when he scored. Grr. I hate the biased announcers. 😠 Makes me want to throw up. 😲

Yes, those commentators were something else. I felt like I was watching a Lakers/Jazz game or something. 😉

I wish FSN Rocky Mtn would stop the tape delay. Ray was "brilliant" and "fabulous".
