Anything but the 4-5-1.

Don't know if this has been mentioned yet, but John Ellinger just confirmed that Brian Dunseth has been suspended for two games for the elbow he threw in Sundays game.

That's wonderful... so how many games has Garlick been suspended for throwing Watson to the ground in the box? not once, but twice...

I suppose it would be too much to hope for equity in officiating at this point in the season. I mean 3 games for booting a ball in the stands... one game for Karate kicking a player... Two games for an elbow and none for blatantly throwing a player to the ground.... TWICE!

Gosh seems almost fair that the league should further cripple our defence... I mean we are not doing a very good job at it without there help... are we!?

Didn't see this. Thanks for sharing.<🙁

I almost get the feeling that RSL has a target on their backs when it comes to league rulings. Kinda like the calls on the field, very inconsistent in the suspensions given out. What about the incident with Watson and KC's goalie? Totally unbelievable.

Maybe a 3-4-3
DJ
Cabrera-Pope-Broome
Gregorio
Scarlett-Williams
Mathis
Watson-Tarley

What do you think?

I think we would be better off playing 11 players instead of 10.

And did anyone else see Garlick b**ch slap Jamie in the box? I can't stand watch these games on ESPN. Stone and Wynalda drive me batty! They were incapable of saying anything positive! ex: When Jamie scored his goal "Quit celebrating dude, you're still down a goal." SHUT UP! SHUT UP! I nearly peed my pants after he scored that goal and I want those two to trip and skin their knees for trying to take that away from me! (Run on sentence, sorry;)Wow, listen to me, little fireball today! :torch:

It’s the curse. I was just kidding when I was talking to some friends and said that this was going to happen. I can’t say anything, I swear 😉

I like SoccerPrime's line-up. Now if we can just find that elusive 11th player.

Cutting the lead to one goal is the perfect time to celebrate. How motivating is it to score and then walk back to your position as if you're defeated and the goal is useless? Yeah, it sounded kind of biased and petty.
