When do they announce locations? I'm hoping Columbus gets one.

I haven't. But I will know relatively soon (in contact with some Crew FO).

Last WCQ cycle the Crew FO told me they were 100% getting the mexico game, and this douchelord on Bigsoccer from RSL was sooooo sure that RSL was getting it, so I made a bet with him that the loser would quit BS forever. We got the game. He's still on there. Fucker

Id guess Columbus gets that game as well. Its our biggest home game and Mexico hates the cold weather (September isnt too bad, but it could be). So you take the coldest city that will come out in droves for the game and you get C-Bus. Plus, we play VERY well there, historically, and Mexico, not so much.

Why not Seattle?

EDIT: Or is that a natural-surface thing?

And for the record, that is a brutal stretch to start. 3 of first 4 on the road. Gotta somehow get a few points out of that so we arent playing catch-up.

MLS semis are set:

LA-Seattle: Nov 11 at LA, Nov 18 at Seattle
Houston-DC: Nov 11 at Houston, Nov 18 at DC

I'd say Seattle is looking good after their late win last night over RSL and having their home field, but LA is gonna be tough.

Arsenal/Fulham match was insane.

3-3 draw. Arsenal given a PK to win with 30 seconds left in stoppage. Arteta misses it. I'm sick. :thumbdown:

Zips given the #5 seed in the NCAA tournament. What a joke considering they finished the season ranked #1 in all major polls
