sabremike Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 2 hours ago, Cristobal said: If anything, I'd argue that MLS gains more credibility by the Galaxy treating the game as the exhibition that it is rather than running out their starters for a friendly in the middle of their season just because it's against a big European side. Really that is absolutely correct but the general public doesn't think that way. They just see the scoreline and come to the conclusion MLS is awful and not worth supporting. It's basically a PR issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 MLS sides have beaten European clubs before. Has it really made a difference? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roman Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Some are saying that PSG is about to close a deal for Neymar worth 254 million USD. The millions that have been thrown around since Bale's transfer have been nothing short of insane. This would push it to a new level again.

To put that amount in perspective: 2 Neymars would cost more than an NHL expansion team ($500 million) and Neymar himself would cost 2 1/2× more than an MLS expansion team ($100 million). Red Bull Arena only cost $200 million to build, $54 million less than Neymar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabremike Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Jozy had to get a rabies shot after the game. After the game I saw the craziest thing: there was a little girl (couldn't have been older than 10) with a giant cooler in the parking lot who I presumed was selling cans of soda or bottles of water. Nope, she was selling cans of beer. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Just nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabremike Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 LOL at the scum. If anyone was thinking about going to the Spurs-Roma match at RBA be advised that the promoter is dumping unsold tickets on SeatGeek and StubHub for $32 after fees. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to charge $60 a ticket for the get in price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1996 Metro had the legendary comeback vs TB from 3-0 down that they won in the shootout. We were also the second team in league history to overcome a 3-0 deficit, this time vs NE at Gillette resulting in a 3-3 draw. The game was also noteable as Tim Howard's last game for us before he joined United. And of course the scum got pasted by expansion Minnesota 4-0 tonight. Hahahaha, give Ben Olsen a contract extension! Even better on a night Metro looked like Brazil playing a pub team (which is what the Impact looked like tonight).
